	Variety.com - Award Central 2004 - 'Rings' is SAG king (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Owing to the month-earlier Academy Awards broadcast date, the SAG Awards are unable to provide the usual Oscar-campaign boost to nominees, as all Acad ballots are due in by 5 p.m.
		As it turned out, the bigger factor impinging on the SAG Awards seemed to be film studios' inability or unwillingness to provide the SAG nomination committee with screeners for its big award contenders, given their anti-piracy initiatives.
		But the SAG Awards for lead actor and actress have proven far better predictors, matching the Oscars' choices in six of the last nine years.

	Variety.com - Award Central 2006 - SAG party crashed
		SAG voters put the brakes on the "Brokeback Mountain" awards express Sunday, snubbing the cowboy romance at the 12th Annual SAG Awards and opting instead for an eclectic mix for its five feature trophies.
		SAG Awards, voted by the 120,000 members of the Guild, provide significant indications of Oscar sentiment but have fallen well short of being thoroughly reliable, particularly in the ensemble category.
		SAG's actor winners have matched the Oscar winner in seven of 11 years, including last year when Jamie FoxxJamie Foxx took both for "Ray," but the two awards diverged in the four previous years.

	washingtonpost.com: Spielberg, Paltrow, Benigni Win Awards
		A surprise SAG award to Roberto Benigni for "Life is Beautiful" gave a huge boost to his chances, previously seen as remote, for an acting Oscar.
		Although the Screen Actors Guild awards are still young — in their fifth year — they are becoming a strong predicator of Oscar winners because of a significant overlap of the membership of the actors' union and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

		Also, in regards to your comment about BBM not winning a single SAG meaning there isn't as much love for BBM as everyone thinks: No. Not one of the three acting nominees (Or the ensemble) was the predicted favorite going into the awards ceremony and they have won very little individual awards.

		Felicity Huffman, nominated for her gender-bending performance in Transamerica, lost that award to Witherspoon but won one as best actress in a TV comedy series (Desperate Housewives).
		SAG’s Best Cast Award is named so for a reason, and Crash is much more of an ensemble piece - with about fifteen performers supporting one another - than Brokeback Mountain, which basically focuses on the characters played by Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal.
		Also, the SAG Best Cast Award has gone to other ensemble pieces, such as last year’s Sideways, plus Gosford Park, Traffic, and The Full Monty, that eventually failed to win the Best Picture Academy Award.
