This is where you can all talk about THE ALL-PRO.

THIS ... IS ... SPOILER-LAND! 

If you have not finished THE ALL-PRO, close this page NOW-NOW-NOW!

NOTE FROM ZE AUTHOR: Each GFL book encasulates a single season, from pre-season through the Galaxy Bowl (or the T2 Tourney). There is some off-season narrative, but for the most part each title represents that single season. So, when the Galaxy Bowl finished in THE ALL-PRO, that's the story. Everything else will have to wait until THE MVP.

How unfortunate Gredok the Splithead was not aboard the Touchback during the attack because Gredok had business to take care of. Does anyone else think Gredok the Splithead had something to do with the attack to the Touchback when they were about attend GB XXVI? Maybe one of the gangsters going toe to toe with Gredok attacked the Krakens bus out of anger? Possibly Gredok himself attacked his own team bus just to send a message to Quentin? So many possibilities!

In a more traditional book format a book called The All-Pro about a quartback named Quentin Barnes would end with said Quentin Barnes becoming an All-Pro!!  I so love that he did not.  That was fucking brilliant.

WTF with the ending!!  Like waiting all that time for The All-Pro wasn't bad enough, that is where you leave things at the end??  You are a sick, sadistic, torturous bastard, you know that?

I love my character. 8D Starcher become one of my top favorites in The Starter, so the fact that I get to be his doctor rocks my world! (My mom is more jealous that I got to stroke Q's arm, lol.)

That was pretty awesome/surprising (er. I mean sad). Becca was no surprise, though. I loved the development of her character in this book. She's really coming into her own as a player!

It's too bad (though understandable) that Quentin couldn't truly be happy for her.  Very well earned.

Re: SPOILERS! SPOILERS! THE ALL-PRO discussion thread

I had every intention of not viewing a spoiler for this book until I had read it....which of course would make it not a spoiler.  Then my book fell open to the very last page, and all I see is a huge, spoiling, bold headline "TEAM MISSING"!  I am absolutely dying to find out just what the hell they are talking about, but I'm trying to avoid spoilers!  The dilemma might just drive me to insanity.

Re: SPOILERS! SPOILERS! THE ALL-PRO discussion thread

but Quentin earned it as well, in real football an All-pro quarter bank aint the guy with zero interceptions or a flawless QB rating its the guys who LEADS his team no matter the cost pulling in the win, and all of Quentin's sacrifice and troubles were seemingly for nothing in the eyes of the footballs gods of the GFL...those dirty bastards Quentin is an All-pro in my book.

Re: SPOILERS! SPOILERS! THE ALL-PRO discussion thread

or do you guys feel for starcher and Tara the Freak? also I swear i almost shed some manly tears with the turn out of the Quentins Father arc in the book being a guy who has never known his father I was litterly in his shows the whole way and had a horrid feeling about how that would end and that shows you just how much of a dirty shucking bastard Gredok really is....but on a lighter note how fucking badass is John Tweedy "want me to kill him Q...he deserves it...I will do it for you" OMG John tweedy is a tattooed badass with a heart of gold, love for his momma, and weird obsession with putting boogers on his brother

I havent finished the book yet but I couldn't think of where else to post this.  So I'll post and keep reading.  Then come back to see what good things you are discussing here.

When I got to the awesome level of flaming turmoil thrown into Quentin's face during the last preseason week I was blown away.  How awesome was that?  I was expecting tension but for some reason, like Q, I thought he was going to slide for most of his behavior.  How wrong!  Then the description of the pregame and beginning of the first game of the season had me twirling my terrible towel and pumping my Ute helmet over my head like a crazed Sklorno at a QB revival meeting!

 

GOOOO KRAKKKENS!

My apologies.  My connection froze and this posted twice probably due to my impatience.  So I killed one of the posts.

Manly tears or sweaty eyeballs? (I'd ask if it couldn't be eyeballs leaking manliness, but, uh, that just sounds way wrong.)

I know those weren't manly tears, it was humid and your eyes were all watery and such.

Ok so 'Cracken v Prawatt' in a game of 'Quidditch for men' to earn freedom.
So I hope this not a grindfest of players but I can see it happening; however...
Prawatt, there sentient right? There is no rules against other races playing ball, the only thing that stops them is the ability to play right...
I hope you see were I am going; the Prawatt can leap like Sklorno and take hits like a Ki not only that but there somewhat in disrepute in the future where there is only war I mean football wrong franchise, I can see the Creterakians just being cool with letting them into the league for a number of reasons. A; they don't want to start the third? galatic war B: what better place to get infomation on a new enemy, sure this one will be unique just like each human is unique but I am guessing you can get quite a bit of info also what do we fear and by proxy of us other sentients? The unkown.
Much like the movie 'paul' there image will spread so that people don't lose thier shit when they see them. But! Instead of being so we can make peaceful contact; it's so that when the army rolls in there they're not scared of facing an unknown enemy but there is just a whole new set of gingles in the Purists heads sing there new little song.

Makes sense? Yes that's a question mark I am not sure if it does...

Or does the scientific explanation of the Facticia Phasmatis fall just short of identifying the Passenger virus?

Could the Prawatt be an evolved form of the Passenger virus?! :o
