Hopefully the sun won’t belch at earth as Ison gets close.

I hope it stays in one piece and on its original trajectory. It's possible ISON could break up or materials evaporating from the surface from intense heat alter its course, or similar to what you said, impact the sun, creating a large flare and etc.

If it breaks up, there could be a slight possibility that we could see some of the debris headed in our direction. If it stays together, not much chance of it ever hitting earth, even if the original trajectory is altered somehow.

Much depends upon the size of the nucleus. I haven't seen any accurate information on this.
