Ah, but the link provided by your wife reminded me that Jacob didn't touch Hurley (or Sayid for that matter) until after they'd left the Island. Implying (to me) Jacob had different selection criteria for them than for the rest of the candidates. Sayid just happened to indeed have a fuctup life. Maybe Hurley was chosen, well because Jacob just obviously really liked Hurley and thought he would be awesome for the Island.
