This is cool, whether its true or not.

That link is actually a pretty good explanation of what happened (if true) on LOST. Of course, the real question is: why could the show writers have thrown some of this in themselves. It would have made it all so much simpler.

What's the difference between a three-day weekend and a nine-day (at least?) weekend?

It's the difference between "Team Rockwood" and the rest of us...

Hope you had a good vacation.

Please tells us you aren't going all Jack Miller on us a la As The Apple Turns...

Everything OK? Would hate to see this small AtAT event become permanent...

Seriously, hope all is well.

I'd ask if Brian got LOST, but it would be too obvious .... and likely not the only one....

AAAAAAHHHH!!!! Again, no Rockwood. Between this and the up-and-coming season finale of Breaking Bad, I don't know if I can continue as a productive person in society.

--Bad Panda

Yes, we're still here, but we did find it interesting that the model for "disappearing without a trace" is Jack Miller of "As The Apple Turns." We have to think that this secretly amuses him. We can't even link to his old site because it's now so far gone, but we're sure he'd be glad to know that people still miss him. Jack, if you're reading, drop us a line. We'll keep all info hush-hush!

Hi Brian,

Is there someplace we can go to see what you do with the Women's College World Series? It sounds interesting, and 81 hours in 7 days, Whew! that's a lot.

--Jim Rockwood

And it ended up being 95 hours in nine days, Jim. The short answer about what Brian did for ESPN would be "grunt work." For an example, you can see just a fraction of the cable laid out for a big show like the WCWS by clicking right here. At some point, Brian probably handled about three-quarters of what you see here, plus an equal amount going the other way out of the truck. There were, of course, many other people helping (about 70 on the crew), but once you realize that for every cable you see here, there's a piece of electronics on the other end... well, you get the idea.

And you thought the back of your TV looked complicated. :)
