O'B/M will draw their largest audience ever for their OD...

hahaha... Good point! I'm sure we'll read an article about it. The press just eats up any opportunity to keep a 'good story' going...

Oh, excuse me..That was the first thing that popped into my mind..I don't even know if they've recycled it for this year..it's on Youtube now from 2008..but I bet a lot of people will be checking them out. It won't hurt them to get a little attention.
