I see the JP comparison as to playing style (and body type), for sure. I am referring to facial resemblance with Snyder.

It occurred to me that I have a picture of the young Snyder on my wall in the next room (along with the other four number retirees, and their autographs). Yes, there is some facial resemblance, and very little in body type. Dick was one of the best all around athletes in the history of the school. In the photo there are muscles on top of his muscles.

A neighbor tells me that that genetic trait is the origin of the name "Whitlock."

His mother told me that he could not get into Davidson because of grades. Believe youngest son is better academically.
Youngest son, who appears to be around 13, already speaks good English and is a delightful young man.

No, it is a pure white patch. The Gudmundsson family is obviously descended from Wildings who had some sort of violent contact with White Walkers in the distant past; but subsequent generations still carry the marks from the encounter.

Thats funny. I've got a tee shirt that says: "Snow/Tarley 2016 We're going to build the wall and make the white walkers pay for it."

Do we seem to be finished (or possibly "Finnished") with recruiting for 2018?

I'm more than a little jealous about that tee shirt, Captain.
