For a second, I thought this was referring to the Maxie/Levi/Nathan story. It would be accurate.
-
SID said something about how he wishes we'd gotten to see Julian bonding and forming his current relationships with his kids (which I agree with, I don't know how we got to where we are now with Julian/Lucas and Julian/Sam). Ron's response "it's what you're seeing now." While I like the Julian/Lucas scenes, I don't think Ron gets that we want to see relationships developed, not just placed in front of us. I surprisingly liked Olivia today, mostly in her scene talking to the baby, commenting on the Levi/Maxie/Nathan stuff. Oh, and I loved Dante today. And get a clue, Maxie. Levi jumps right to "let's look at his cell phone records" and Nathan hands it over. Both seemed sure of what would or wouldn't be on there. The question to ask is "why was Levi SO sure that call would be on Nathan's phone?" I know you're flaky, but you're not THIS stupid, especially as a schemer yourself. If Nathan was trying to be crafty, he wouldn't have used his cell phone to make the call. Or he would have been smart enough to erase it from his phone. I cracked up at Sonny's "I won't do it myself" to Franco. No kidding. Lucky for you, Franco, he'll likely have Shawn do it. So, you're going to be just fine. Carly might get her second bullet of love if she's anywhere in the city limits when Shawn attempts to pull off the hit, though. I might have even liked Franco a little bit if, when Sonny yelled "stay away from my son!" as he left, Franco had shouted back "which one? You know you have three, right?"

I think I'm really starting to like Aly. I like that they've pulled back on the flat out crazy. And then, today, even though she was obviously hurt and has feelings for Oliver, she was strong enough to say that she can't be with someone if she never knows if he's lying to her. I like that she wasn't so desperate to hang on to him that she was willing to blindly accept whatever he said. Ditto Carter. I love that he saw through all of Maya's bullshit. I thought there was a decent possibility that the guy who was all over Maya when she was obviously into (and involved with) someone else wouldn't be too bent out of shape that she had a brief failed seduction of her ex. And I like that both conversations played out on the same day. There's a lot of similarities there. I think both Oliver and Maya thought that, in Aly and Carter, they had someone who was so into them that they'd be able to stay in their good graces with minimal effort and charm. Oliver was a little smarter than Maya in doing his damage control up front instead of waiting on someone ratting him out to Aly, and I think he does probably genuinely care about Aly more than Maya does about Carter. -
I'm glad someone at least mentioned it. I see he's re-signing with Miami, I wonder what that deal is. At this point, with most FA's snapped up, it probably doesn't matter much what he's getting paid this year. Maybe Riley's still thinking of giving him back something similar to his last deal. I know he signed Deng to a two year deal, so maybe his thought is that in two years they can re-tool again. (Side note: That Deng signing killed me. I love Lu, but with or without LeBron, I hate Miami. It's going to be rough seeing him in that jersey multiple times per season.)

That was my first thought. ESPN rides his jock like crazy for years, and he breaks the story with SI. They had to be pissed. What kind of bugged me in all the coverage was twofold. First, there was a whole lot of the "conquering hero returns home" kind of angle to some of the coverage. Which, well, he did't conquer shit for Cleveland. He went out and conquered for Miami, and now he's coming back to Cleveland. It's not like those 2 titles transfer back to Cleveland with him. Second, there's the whole everyone opt out thing in Miami. By all accounts, Wade, Bosh, and Haslem were convinced to opt out after a meeting with LeBron. Obviously, none of us know what was said in their meeting, but the overall narrative was that there was some agreement for everyone to opt out in order to try to restructure salaries and, ideally, get some more help in there, along with LeBron wanting a max deal for a year or two. How much does this whole turn of events screw over Wade? Bosh was going to be fine, someone was going to offer him money, and it turns out Miami was willing to pay him to stay put. Wade, though - who's going to pay him $40+ million for two years at this point? I said when they initially opted out that Riley likely made Wade some off the record promise to recoup that money, and if that's not the case, then LeBron did a really shitty thing to his "brother." But I haven't heard a single reporter point out that this might have left Wade in the lurch. It's all "LeBron returned to Cleveland, so everyone has to think he's better than rainbows, kittens, puppies, AND unicorns combined, got it?" I think it's likely LeBron had at least a pretty strong inkling that he was going to choose Cleveland. It explains him not taking the FA period thing at all seriously (having his agent meet with teams while he vacationed). So the whole opting out thing seems more bizarre, in retrospect. I thought it was bad enough when it was out there as him telling the other three "hey, guys, I want a max deal, and we need to get some help in here, so everyone opt out." But it's worse if he was a driving force in that unanimous opt out decision and he had some idea that he might not stay. But, he did learn a little bit, since it seems like he let Riley know he was leaving ahead of time and didn't leave it to Riley finding out whenever he hit the internet that day. So...progress?

I can't be the only one who was disappointed when he mentioned Carlos Danger and we didn't get the little dance?

Even the SID twitter account regularly tweets Levi hate, and SID usually resides somewhere firmly up Ron's colon.

It would depend on the severity of her condition. From what I understand, someone who is going to die imminently would get bumped up higher on the list than someone who has maybe been on the list longer, but isn't in as severe condition. So it's not just a straight forward "first come first served" kind of wait list, but a lot of factors can go into where someone is on the list. I wasn't this annoyed by Maxie scenes when she was saddled to that waste of space Spinelli. Congratulations, Ron, you've found someone who makes me look back fondly on the Spixie hell. Where's Shawn trying to shoot someone standing 5 feet away from Levi when we need him?

Agreed. I think he felt like it would be awkward to just give her the phone, so he tried to make it less so. I like Cory's relationship with Maya. As Riley's parent, he obviously has concerns some times about what trouble Riley and Maya might get into together, but he also has his own friendship with Shawn to draw on, so he knows that the "rebel" kid can also have a good heart and look out for their best friend, and that Riley and Maya can balance each other out (which goes back to him urging Riley to be herself and not try to be Maya). Like others, I had friends in school over the years who had a parent as their teacher. I know when I was in Jr. High, each grade had just one teacher for each subject, so it doesn't seem odd to me if Cory is the only history teacher at their grade level. There were even two subjects were the same teacher taught both 7th and 8th grade.

That's one that I still keep going back to. Has he ever bought a new engagement ring by now? Or has he just kept recycling the same one back and forth between the two of them for years? -
Today was the set-up for my dream story line - Sonny is going to attempt to kill Franco, and, somehow, in the process of the murder attempt and Carly's attempt to rescue him, Sonny, Carly, and Franco all end up dead. Win-win-win.

Ron doesn't consider that rape, sadly. He's a sick puppy. You'd think he'd learn after being called out for that shit on OLTL, but, instead, I'm sure he writes the same shit again to thumb his nose at those of us disgusted by it.

Yep, those are likely body doubles, but the guy is wearing the same suit as the one in the picture of KM standing with what looks pretty clearly, to me, to be DB. So, unless Liam and Wyatt are wearing the exact same suit... I wouldn't really call what Hope has been doing "playing the field." Women who are playing the field don't, generally, seem so focused on weddings. Hell, I'd have more respect for Hope if she was just happily playing the field and admitted that she likes having multiple guys into her. It'd be more honest than flip-flopping from one "serious/exclusive" relationship to another. -

That was my immediate thought at reading that spoiler. Of course Ron would do that. The twisted family tree there is mind-boggling. If Sonny and Ava get married, one of those babies would he his/her own aunt/uncle. -

If you can get to it easily again, would you mind posting a link to it? I haven't seen it and would like to take a look. Thanks! -

I see next to no demonstrable difference in acting talent among the Felix/Brad/Lucas group. -

The answer to this question is ALWAYS "Yes. Yes he would." -

I've been saying pretty much the same thing for a while. She feels like she should be with Liam, for a variety of reasons, but I've never seen her as physically into Liam as she's been with Wyatt. (I figured it was safe to leave this portion of the spoiler out of spoiler tags.) -

Brooke would be there whether a Lope wedding actually completely goes down or not. God knows she was at every other wedding Hope and Liam "almost" had. Maybe that's actually the problem - Brooke's bad luck for Hope's weddings to Liam. If the next one doesn't happen, they should try leaving her off the guest list for try number 57. -
I think it would have been a cooler moment for Patrick if, instead of the stuff we got today, he went in there and did his best to safe Rafe and, then, the first thing Rafe sees when he wakes up is Patrick, who gives him a speech about how he saved him so he could live with what he'd done, and that he saved him because he wants to sit in court and watch him tried, convicted, and sentenced for killing a baby. (Of course, the moment would be even better if JD could bring it opposite him and show us a kid tortured with guilt over what he'd allowed himself to become and what he did, but, well...) I believe he's on the "I met this American chick who was out trying to 'find herself,' and she invited me back to freeload in her apartment for a while" Visa. Although, really, someone should have side-eyed that application after 10 seconds of talking to him, looking at Maxie and saying "This guy? Really? Come on! Honey, give me 30 seconds, and I'll find you someone better."

Lord those two are exhausting. How many attempted weddings does that make? My twisted side hopes the next wedding attempt is kaput because Liam sleeps with Quinn and Hope finds out right before she's set to walk down the aisle. -
I know this isn't what you meant, but I just had a vision of him doing just that as Rafe's heart monitor is going nuts. Some people probably didn't do something that terrible, so she figured just writing their names on her list was revenge enough.

His last wedding was to Steffy. -
Not to mention that Felicia peaced out on Maxie for years. She's the exact opposite of a helicopter parent.

I know I wasn't trying to let Disney off the hook for content of a show I don't watch. I'm just saying it doesn't follow that just because they portray some real life ugliness in a fictionalized story line, it doesn't mean they're OK with hiring guy with MM's history.
