Hey guys he said that the second island is slightly larger then the island that housed Alcatraz. We're not talking about Hawaii here.

I think Desmond's pole stopped the roof from getting hit by lightning. That episode was awesome. I love this season. I paused the preview when whatever is in front of the monitor and it actually looked like a dude w/ alien-type sunglasses on. We'll see. I also don't think Jack is there to save Ben. That's way too obvious.

They do show it, I bet. It's probably the scene where they show him taking off his shirt w/ the full beard. I bet it's a full blown getting ready for battle scene that's practically straight out of Rambo. Bill Simmons quote in today's column was great, by the way. "I couldn't have been more excited if Fox somehow managed to have $100 bills spit out of my TV."

I saw that earlier. They also made the A and Bs a little harder to get. I'm glad that they didn't eliminate completely.

-Peter Gammons I mean - you can argue all day about the wild card, his screw up with the tie in the all-star game and whatnot, but complete labor peace and a near 500% increase in the economy of the game? That's pretty impressive to me.

Could be 8-0 vs. 6-2. Exciting.

They've been doing their best to attempt it the last two seasons. I really think they've stepped up their game, lately. Besides, new locations this year will add some spice in addition to the storyline.

I'm just wondering why there is such a huge discrepancy in the salaries of Hughes/Penn and Silva/Franklin. Anybody have any insight?

Nice win for the Giants. Romo and Bledsoe are both awful. Good luck with that, Cowboys.

Imagine running into that thing.

6.02 x 10^23.

Oh - I totally agree with you. But there ARE people who still think it's terrible.

What the hell?

Shawne Merriman busted for roids. Woof.

$12M for the Marine is about $10M more then I would have expected or guessed.

I saw them talk about this on Best Week Ever. If it's an 18 year old girl, they aren't breaking the law, correct? Or are the IMs supposed to be with someone even younger?

Hilarious. I take the bus to work every day and the one bus driver looks exactly like Jeff Blauser. I even call him Blauser in my head. It's funny how many people remember those guys as a result of TBS.

I don't know. I was just pumped my team won the world series so I went on a spending spree on mlb.com. I still wear the hat every now and then but not very often.

Czech, you should already know the answer to that question. Merchandising. I own a Marlins hat w/ a WS logo.

I was flipping through the channels and I caught the Kurt Angle/Samoa Joe bit at the end. I'm not a TNA fan but I watched the entire segment, then I rewound it and watched it again. That was pretty cool.

This thread is directly responsible for almost 6% of my total post count.

I thought Serra/Carter was pretty boring. The second coming of the spinning back fist was pretty cool, but I was sort of fiding myself rooting for both of them to lose somehow. I think that Matt Serra did do a good job of making Laimon look like a total bitch. "Whatever, man. That's his opinion. Just because I don't fight means I can't have an opinion on something?" What a dick.

You forgot '97. Everyone's trying to forget '97. Not this cat. Woooooooooooooo.

it was nice enough to make me run into the next room to watch the replay. if the mets win this game he'll be a hero. endy chavez, a hero. ha.

Here's something else I just thought of: Ben will be completely unprepared and caught off guard by the majesty of Locke's assault. The Locke he knows is a spineless pussy who waits for Jack to tell him what to do. He's not worried about him. He's worried about Sayid. Now that the tiger has been unleashed, he has no idea what he's up against. Locke is gonna bring the pain and Ben is gonna be dumbfounded. It's gonna be great.
