From one nation to another:

He's first on the list, so presumably that means he'll be on Monday (11:30 pm, start your TiVos). No idea if he'll talk about anything related to the A's. (Or even if it's the same Michael Lewis as Moneyball fame, but probably.)

For those who don't know the Colbert Report (the Ts are both silent), it's a parody of the Fox-News style punditry shows, much like the Daily Show is a parody of the Nightly News. He rarely breaks character, so it can be startling at first, but it's brilliant, in an Andy Kaufman sort of way.

He is most likely on there promoting

his new book. I forget the title but it is about the left tackle position and how it has evolved since LT revolutionized the outside linebacker position.

Go Bears Go A's
