Well, if Mayfield plays well and the Baker Mayfield Project looks like it has a shot of succeeding, Bucs fans will rally behind Mayfield.īut if he stinks the joint up like he did in Carolina last year, Bucs fans will be screaming for college quarterbacks Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Michael Penix or Quinn Ewers.ġ9 Responses to “Easy To Pull For Baker Mayfield” Let’s see if he sticks as the Bucs’ new QB1 in this latest chapter of his career. Whether you love him or hate him, he’s an interesting player to follow as a swashbuckling competitor with a charismatic personality that others rally around. Though he’s had mixed results as a starting quarterback in this league, Mayfield is a guy whom people are drawn to. In Tampa, to the chagrin of the Kyle Trask crowd, McCourty chose Mayfield. McCourty went through the roster of all 32 NFL teams to find a player fans can get behind and pull for. That would be quarterback Baker Mayfield. If that does happen, Jason McCourty of NFL Network believes the Bucs have one player who can bring Bucs fans together in a singular cause. Most national talking heads and keyboard pests seem convinced the Bucs will stink in this first year of the post-Tom Brady era.

Lily James (who has a long pedigree in historical dramas-Rebecca, Downton Abbey and War & Peace), plays the passionate, free-spirit, Linda Radlett-who finds ‘normal’ life dull and longs for excitement and true love.

It proves once again that, in Barker’s hands, the Fantastique is not only alive and well, but flourishing. Infernal Parade is quintessential Barker: witty, elegantly composed, filled with dark and often savage wonders. The result is a series of highly compressed, interrelated narratives that are memorable, disturbing, and impossible to set aside. Golems, vengeful humans both living and dead, and assorted impossible creatures parade across these pages. Tom becomes the leader of the eponymous “parade,” which ranges from the familiar precincts of North Dakota to the mythical city of Karantica. It begins with the tale of a convicted criminal, Tom Requiem, who returns from the brink of death to restore both fear and a touch of awe to a complacent world. Like the earlier Tortured Souls, an account of bizarre – and agonizing – transformations, Infernal Parade is tightly focused, intensely imagined, and utterly unlike anything else you will ever read. This astonishing novella, Infernal Parade, perfectly encapsulates Barker’s unique abilities. His body of work constitutes a great and varied contribution to modern popular culture.

I mention this because, as much as I loved the first two books in Ian McDonald’s Luna series, when I started the latest (and final) chapter, Luna: Moon Rising, I only had the vaguest inkling as to who was who, and what was going on. The expectation that I’ll either remember the many plot threads and character arcs or reread the previous instalments is wishful thinking given my sketchy middle-aged memory and the many shiny new novels that are published every week. I’ve long advocated to anyone who’ll listen (generally myself in the shower) that books in a trilogy or multi-volume series need to begin with a recap of the previous novel. |
