Junior Seau?

too soon

No kidding. He was only 43. Only a few years older than me.

Now is the time to reflect on all the poor choices during the first thread, and try to learn from this event and pick better for round 2 (which thread initiated or not, started about 12 hours ago).

I fear that you have violated Rule 1....

1. Your pick has to be living when picked.

Is anybody tallying this list up and keeping track?

​

The only question I have is whether jfuchs91 and Chin get an additional pick, or whether they are DSQ, for violating Rule 1, Section 1.

In all likelyhood, I follow the NCAA guidelines; and make a totally arbitrary decision, based entirely upon how pissy I am feeling about someone at a given moment in time, weighed alongside how badly I can make my arbitrary ruling impact outcomes.

Need to stop these violations, the NCAA will find another reason to dock another scholarship.

Make it arbitrary and retroactive! I also wanted in on the Dick Cheney pick.

With one thread, dozens and dozens of posters step ahead of me on the line to Hell.

The line may appear to be long, but it moves at a pretty rapid pace....


I don't think you will have too much to worry about....

When your time comes, you'll be driving the bus to Hell.

I guess I didn't uderstand the rules. I thought we were guessing who would die next, not wishing for it. That's a whole different game.

Cheney covered both for me. ;^)

When is round 2?

 

[prankster]

When is round 2?

Not until after Round 1...

Either that or 20 minutes

 

[sledog]

Anyone been suppinaed (?) yet??

 

[suzyq]

Who had Maurice Sendak?
Or Goober Pyle?

 

[Joobie]

Ryan O'Neal

 

[TRest]

Ryan O'Neal

That was my second round choice. He is reeling.

 

[Chin Diesel]

How did everyone miss naming a Kennedy?

In retrospect taking any Kennedy against the field should get even odds.

And Donna Summers stepped up to the plate too.

Fishy has a point. Over the past month, my first task after reading about any celebrity death is to check this thread to see if anyone won.
