Coasting

Wherein defined as to proceed easily without special application of effort or concern


What this guy says
Griffey’s status as one of the all time great players remains secure but it is increasingly clear that it is based on a 12 year run in the beginning of his career. Since then, he has been able to do little more than add to his counting numbers by sticking around for a decade as without having one full season where he was both healthy and good.

He was close

Wherein it was predicted


March 14, 2008
I love Locke. He's my favorite character on the show and always has been.

If it were me writing the show, the last season would end with Locke merging with the Smoke Monster like Leto at the end of Children of Dune. He'd be walking around 20 feet tall and shooting lighting bolts out of his eyes and fighting polar bears with his bare hands.

Personally, I've rapidly lost interest with every episode this season. Actually, ever since they spun the frozen donkey wheel and started galivanting through time and space my ability to care became another victim of the speeding bus no one saw coming. So to say I was disappointed in the finale would be to admit I still had any type of expectations. And I didn't. I watched it, it's over, that's it.
