So, I was reading my dorky blog about all things TV, and I followed a link to ew.com about how Kevin Smith will be directing an episode of LOST (which is very cool in a very dorky way). The first paragraph goes like this:
"It's October, and we're still around four months away from Lost's season premiere. By that time — Spoiler Alert! — the Boston Red Sox will have beaten the Colorado Rockies to win the World Series, the University of California will have edged out the LSU Tigers for the college football national championship, and my hometown Seattle Seahawks will have capped a Cinderella season by beating the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl. Yes, my awesome Desmond-esque precognitive powers extend to the world of sports, too."
Did you see it? When he wrote "the University of California," he was talking about us! This required a double take equivalent to the one I took the first time I saw the Ford commercial with the giant bear chasing the Heisman trophy (at first, I was irritated that they hadn't portrayed the Bruin as being small and dickless. Then, after some time, I realized that it was a Golden Bear!). So, this is what it's like to be the team everyone is talking about.

Am I the only one who is still thinking about the myriad of ways the Bears can still screw this season up?
Ditto to erin. And in terms of the Heisman commercial? Anyone else notice how the Bear is alone in the shot - just in case we fuck up midway through the season and they have to cut us out?
People are talking about Cal? I thought they were to busy talking about how USC sucks ... sigh
Hey, I am just enjoying it while it lasts. We all should be. Give it one week, two weeks tops and Cal will lose to an unranked team. Then, they will be busy talking about how we suck.
I haven't even seen said Heisman commercial. Anyone know where I can find it? Apparently they don't show it in NY or I don't pay attention. Both very possible.
