SGA hints about Sam/Jack
John and the Promotion comment - I think the reason why this gets debated, is because when John says 'I haven't had a chance to congratulate you yet', he kind of waves to her hand, Sam looks confused over what he's congratulating her for, before he kind of straightens and says 'your promotion'.
Would he have known? I guess apart from the scenario Pol suggests, there's also a fanon question of whether any of the SGA guys have a friendship with any of the SG1 guys - after all, Atlantis and the SGC were in regular contact. The Atlantis guys did save Jack from the replicators midS3. So, I don't think it's out of the realms of possibility in the fictional world that someone mentioned something to John (maybe Elizabeth mentions it; maybe Mitchell tells him in an email), who in that moment on the balcony unthinkingly starts to congratulate Sam before maybe realising that he's not supposed to know and/or she might not be pleased that he's aware, and quickly covers with the rank congrats.
