I'm not necessarily in disagreement with you I just see the situation differently and IMO Ned should have NEVER been that Naive /w a KNOWN enemy. Consider all that he and his family knew about the Lannisters, consider all that he had discovered prior to his death he was a fool not to have seriously considered betrayal, death and/or torment not only towards his family, BUT all families by the tyrant king that HE DIRECTLY helped secured on the Iron Throne by his lie and subsequent staining of his and his families name. Were you know the one whom said early YOUR WORD IS EVERYTHING in this world? Ned doesn't know this?
Ned Stark choose to "save" his family while fucking everyone else's. In the end he accomplished neither of one and all of the other..
I see it more like Robb spitting in Frey's face by backing out of his promise and then bringing his "hoe" to his home.
Speaking of Spartacus folks can't tell me this recent episode didn't remind them of KILL THEM ALL? That episode even including killing a baby still in the womb! The real difference is we knew in Spartacus shit was going to go down and all the "bad" guys were going to die.

Fam,
What "honorable" solider says fuck the world, "I'm just gonna protect mines" WHILE helping to unleash a monster on everyone else?
What "honorable" solider makes a deal with the devil, whom by this time he knows to be and doesn't expect to get sting?
exactly the most hoe thing you could ever do in life. This Walder Frey fag basically had a nigga moment (Red Wedding). Its like He and Robb were in the club and Robb stepped on his new gators (not marrying his daughter), so to remedy this Walder steps on his gators and send the goons to kill you and yours after the club lets out![]()

Nah i agree. Ned SHOULDN'T have. But that's why you have to put yourself in NED'S HEAD. Not yourself in that position. Hell i doubt ANY of us modern people would make the moves ned did. People in this day and age don't have 1/25th the amount of honor someone like Ned does. I doubt most of us would've ever been Hand in the first place. But it's always been said, Ned was TOO honorable for his own good. He and Barriston are throwbacks. That's how i see them. They're men in a space and time that isn't really a place for THEM. I see him as Captain America. Just out of place. No knowledge of how dirty shit is now. He's playing by a different rule book than everyone else. And he's stubborn.
Ned was stubborn. OR he just had no clue how BAD shit was. Everyone was warning him. Ned chose to save his children, and sacrifice himself. He thought he had a deal as well. If i remember right i think the Spider told him if you just SAY you're a traitor, we'll send you to the wall and release the kids. Honorable men aren't going to sacrifice their children just to maintain a lie. You got a choice i saw it. You take the stain on your own. Believing the deal, or you get killed for sure, the kids get killed for sure. He was in an impossible spot to begin with.
But i agree with you. he should've listened to everyone from the get go. Everyone who told him this wasn't his place. Hell even Cat was like dude fuck this place lets go home. But he felt honor and duty bound to Robert. I'm curious why he didnt go to Robert from the get go.

dude what would you expect ned to do? a king's hand is not more powerful than the king. he's not gonna murder a woman and her children in their beds, and if he had to go to war, it would've been better to be out of king's landing and in winterfell wouldn't it? shit he could've joined forces with stannis.
if you mean after he was imprisoned, as far as he knew, his only option was to confess and be sent to the wall for his children's safety, had he reneged the would've killed his family. you think the little people give a fuck if joffrey is a bastard or not?
Everyone in the kingdom have heard the rumors of Jeofery and what difference has it made? Even though everyone knows he is a rich brat with the backing of the lannisters who is going to try anythingBut, thats just it isn't it? Jeoffery wasn't the undisputed "king" was he? But, Neds POWERFUL lie(WORD) helped solidify him.
Let me ask you this had Ned chosen death for himself and his daughters and had chosen the side of truth (Jeoffery is a Bastard).
Are we still talking about "King" Jeffoery? or is his reign likely over before it even started? Remember what a person WORD means during these times.
got killed twice...i feel bad for ned.
cuz he didn't want rob putting cercei and the childrens' heads on spikes
i'm gon play this loud at worktuesday

Fair enough,
I'm just saying these are the type of people to literally fuck each other and create bastard kids and have no quems about throwing you son out a fucking window while drinking your water and eating your food.
We as an audience only saw a little of their evil while Ned and his family and history have seen alot more..
the dragon bitch annoys the fuck outta me, i don't get why her character is so popular, and while i was shocked about the ending i felt so remorse for rob, u cant go around breaking ur word that u swear in another mans castle, rob was only popular to viewers cause we all liked his father and wanted him to get some form of revenge but if u look at his character he was flawed, he made dumb move after dumb move repeatedly![]()
HBO and Tom Hanks are developing American Gods by Neil Gaiman as a TV series.

Coworkers who watch the show gonna get up and run out the building.
Sam gonna make a motherfucka leave all they shit at work.
Imagine how shit would've turned out if Robb and Renley just would've joined forces. Why didn't they? I don't remember.
It wont be a big one but,everybody are going to hate the Freys even more,if they show it.......![]()

Last nite was so gruesome that I hope they don't go thru w/ it anymore...I couldn't sleep...what they did to Robb's wife kept waking me up
if you (not you) think that this is a story about good guys vs. bad guys, you haven't been paying attention.![]()
