everyone knows russell's game this time. no chance he makes it. him making it to merge (unless he comes back from "redemption island") would be miracle.

I started watching Band of Brothers for the first time. Can't believe how I haven't seen it before.

Great miniseries. When you finish it, you should watch The Pacific, which was done last year.

The Pacific is too good for TV tbh. Should be a film done in 3 parts. Brilliant show.

Russell should be gone before the merge (even if they would throw one challenge to do that). But I can easily see that stout hobbit on crack staying on redemtion island for several weeks. If he gets back to game it may become his best argument for final speech - that he fought his way to finals and deserves it because of that (and more iomportantly that he didn'T do anything wrng to anybody - beeing booted too soon to do that). Boston Rob's tribe stzill looks more like a bunch of dummies, last tribal council may stirr it up a bit so we could actually see their personalities. The other tribe may have a better cast, we'll see. Definitely better than last season (although the finale was priceless).

Don't know if there are any cricket heads here, but what about them Irish beating England in the World Cup match. Best sporting day for the Irish apparently.

I'm in for either a really excting 12-36 months or a really frustrating 12-36 months.

The Bobcats are on some sort of rebuild trading Crash for picks.
My NHL team (Sens) are on a full out rebuild gutting the roster in trades for picks.
My AFL team (Bombers) are on a rebuild playing a lot of kids and bringing in a new head coach.

If at least one of my teams don't come out the other side of their rebuilds as total champs for the next decade I might go postal.

Orlando has come back from a 24 point or so deficit to take the lead. It took them like... 11 minutes of game time. The Heat are getting murdered all of a sudden.

I'm watching - JRich smoking hot then for good measure, Gilbert checks in and starts lighting the Heat up too!!

16-2 in the 4th so far!!

Doesn't help that the Heat totally and utterly suck in the half court. If they aren't out running they are pretty terrible and obviously panicked.

And the Magic excel at halfcourt defense. My guess is they stopped crashing the boards because they were making their shots, which makes it hard to get in transition.

Wow. Crazy play there. No one on the floor wasn't working on either team. That's intense.

Orlando has apparently come back from their 2nd largest deficit in team history to win. Great win.
