Hearing Arcade Fire live in Montreal

The Weekend Update gang on Saturday Night Live decided to air a new segment this week called "Really!?!" Their debut subject? Michael Vick and his dalliance with weed-carrying water bottles. The line of the night belongs to Seth Meyers:

"Even my dumbest high school friends know to throw their weed away at the airport, and they have no money and love weed."

Admittedly, I'm one of the few still watching SNL (and getting SI) every week, and the last couple -- hosted by Jeremy Piven and Jake Gyllenhaal, respectively -- have been high quality while Meyers and Amy Poehler on the anchor desk are always likeable and usually funny.

As for the Vick incident, FanHouse is getting a lot of mileage out this one. Below are all of their posts on the matter along with the number of comments for each post in parenthesis:
