Ben is a smart guy. Always seem to be one step ahead of the game. I'm really hoping that in whichever episode his flashback is we find out exactly how he thought getting captured by the Losties and almost killed on multiple occasions was a good idea. I read elsewhere that (Unrelated to previous paragraph)

wtf. That curbs my enthusiasm, so to speak, but I'll reserve judgment until I see what happens. I have to admit that I'm equally as intrigued for the season finale based on who it is about... just because it might be some wild stuff.

Well, her being a spy makes sense in relation to why we weren't given more answers. Despite Jack playing the hero... she wasn't telling anyway. And if Sun is pregnant she'll be peacing out sometime next season?

I also count 12-11 in favor of Jack.

He was still writing for the Cornell Daily Sun as recently as a few months ago. One of the greatest Cornellians.

Do I need to remind you what Jack did in Mexico? Not even hesitating to shoot your partner (and oh yeah...daughter's boyfriend) directly in the skull to not blow your cover is pretty badass.

By the way, fuck Jorge Julio. Another blown save. Making him 0/3 with a WHIP of around 5 and an ERA hovering around 20.00. Yeah. Fuck him.

Hot Hot Heat have a song from their new album on their MySpace. I know this will delight Banky to great ends because I know how much he loves them. I really like it.

Kevin Durant to the NBA. Tyler Hansbrough and Tywon Lawson returning to UNC. Yay. Preseason #1 I'm guessing.

Why Brenna Gethers in your sig, Leena? If it weren't for Mikalah Gordon she'd easily be the worst idol contestant of all time.

Last night only reaffirmed that Jack Bauer is the ONLY choice. Bauer.

Never pitched above A before? Rick Vanden Hurk doesn't give a FUCK. 5 Ks through 2 innings.

I don't think the two movies are remotely even in the same ballpark. Blades of Glory is, in effect, a Will Ferrell movie. You either like them or you don't. Same as Adam Sandler movies, etc. Wild Hogs? C'mon, now.

Fantasy purposes? De Aza is a total surprise and I wouldn't bet on him to keep it up but I suppose you could have said the same thing about Uggla last year. He's a solid but unspectacular player. Totally impressed the club in ST and made the team even when he had almost no chance. He'd get you steals and maybe a decent BA but not much else fantasy wise. Jacobs is what he always was... a guy who can provide some pop but he's not reliable. He's good for HRs and RBIs...more so if he sticks in the 4 spot. But he's entrenched at first so he'd be a decent guy to have on your bench. He usually sits against lefties but can mash righties. Willingham is a beast. A lot of people thought he should have been in the majors years ago. Defense is what kept him in the minors. He didn't have a position. He should stick in the 4 hole behind Miggy and deliver plenty of RBIs. I think last year is about what you can expect and he's entering his prime. His talent is not questioned and he's probably the 3rd best hitter on the Marlins behind Miguel and Hanley (and maybe Hermida if he ever manages to produce at the MLB level.)

The Marlins have now won 9 straight over the Brewers spanning three different managers (McKeon, Girardi, Gonzalez). That streak is likely to come to an end tomorrow though when the Marlins send Class A hurler, from the Netherlands, Rick Vanden Hurk to the mound to make his major league debut.

That was one of the best episodes of 24 I can recall off the top of my head in a very long time. "Say hello to your brother" and that entire scene was incredible. And I can not WAIT until Jack kills that toad faced fucker.

I still can't believe it. I never thought Serra would win in a million years. When I checked the results this morning I was only mainly interested in Koscheck/Sanchez because I expected a first round GSP KO. Wow.

Pretty good episode. It was nice seeing the "relationship" quality between Ari and Vince and they both played it well. Drama's shit with the billboard was hilarious and I'm curious where this Mediian thing is going to go. Glad to have it back.

Thankfully the Chosen One is day-to-day and nothing worse. And I hope Jorge Julio gets outright released. The very second Taylor Tankersley comes off the DL.

That's the best of the ones I've been to so far. They both put on good live shows. I didn't include this upcoming one in the best debate because it hasn't happened yet.

Can't wait for the flashback to see what happened there w/ Ben/Locke/Cooper. I was a little disappointed that Sayid was just knocked out during the whole ordeal last night. I spent about 5 minutes wondering what he was up to and that was a bit of a let down. Oh well.

They announced the acts for my college's Slope Day, which is pretty much a last day of class drinking fest w/ a concert. It's TV on the Radio opening for T.I.. Could be worse. 2003 - Rusted Root and Fat Joe 2004 - Kanye and O.A.R. (the best one in my opinion) 2005 - Snoop Dogg 2006 - Talib Kweli and Ben Folds I was hoping for something different but this will suffice.

deadspin.com I imagine that Al can't be too happy about this. Ha.

So, who wants to guess how popular Jorge Julio is on marlinbaseball.com right now? He won't last as closer.

Um, holy crap on one of those flashback listings. I'm talking about the one in the middle but I absolutely can not wait for the 2 on the end. Is that the season finale?
