ISLAND REGIONAL
(1) Jack vs (4) Faraday
(2) Juliet vs (6) Lapidus
Jack may be the central character but he'll always be remembered for making faces, popping pills while yelling at Kate, and "Stranger in a Strange Land" whereas Faraday will always be remembered as Desmond's constant. Lapidus, meanwhile, can only go so far.
LOS ANGELES REGIONAL
(1) Locke vs (5) Richard Alpert
(2) Ben vs (3) Desmond
Sometimes seeding isn't fair; Locke, Ben, and Desmond could easily be 3/4 of the Final Four. As it stands, though, only one of them will make it. Locke over Alpert is a bit of a no-brainer but the other face-off is a dilemma. My heart says Desmond but my brain says Ben (and even my heart has a soft spot for everyone's favorite manipulator). Something feels right about picking Ben, though. He's too devious to go home this early.
SYDNEY REGIONAL
(1) Sawyer vs (4) Claire
(2) Hurley vs (3) Charlie
Sawer's victory doesn't take much thought, but how can one choose between the most lovable of the Losties and the guy who sacrificed himself to save them? In the end, I have to go with the dude.
ANN ARBOR REGIONAL
(1) Kate vs (4) The Smoke Monster/Man in Black
(2) Sayid vs (6) Miles
We all like Miles but an audience surrogate has no chance agaist an Iraqi torturer. And Kate is Kate.
Now we do it all over again:
ISLAND REGIONAL
(4) Faraday vs (2) Juliet
Both have major sympathy points for dying before their time and being involved in doomed romances, but Faraday wins by a nose. People just darn like the guy. If it's any consolation, Juliet, you're the strongest female character on the show.
LOS ANGELES REGIONAL
(1) Locke vs (2) Ben
Ben bested Locke once before but history won't repeat itself, especially now that Locke has been smoke-ified.
SYDNEY REGIONAL
(1) Sawyer vs (2) Hurley
Both can spin a mean catchphrase but Sawyer could pull a long con on us any day.
ANN ARBOR REGIONAL
(4) The Smoke Monster/Man in Black vs (2) Sayid
Smokey's finishing strong, whereas Sayid's best days were at the beginning of the series.
That's all for today. Join me later for the Final Four, which is now set in stone:
(4) Faraday vs (4) The Smoke Monster/Man in Black
(1) Locke vs (1) Sawyer

You mean "Faraday wins by a BLOODY nose", right?
