I just don't really understand the point of going for old timers or known sick people who could kick at any minute? I had a bunch of other people in mind but I'll keep my list to that (unless I can make another list the 1st of the year). Bridgette Bardot, Wendy Williams, Sylvester Stallone, Patrick Kennedy, Judge Judy, Ezra Miller, and Drew Pinsky. Oops! I spilled the milk.
Picking people in the 80s and 90s gets few points but has a higher percentage overall. Someone could sneak a win in a lean year with a couple of old timers. There aren't any lean years with the tidal wave of Boomers going lately. The 70s is as old as I usually go but people in their 40s-60s usually will win a "season". They are home run shots, Waterboy got one this year. I don't usually pick anyone younger than 40.
We've got a new participant looking to make her mark as a reaper. Welcome @jetophile And anyone that else wishing to join, go ahead and put together a roster.

I try and keep it balanced, a few younger ones with health issues, a few older ones for some easier points. 1st of the year what we do now is start everyone with their current roster from previous season and allow you to swap out your picks. We use a snake draft but you don't need to change any picks you are happy with, can change 1, 2, all or none, just in draft order.
Moondoggie has passed on at the age of 88, but I'm sure the overwhelming majority of people on this board have never heard of Sandra Dee's on-screen main squeeze. Given that, I didn't start a different thread, but put the link here instead. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/m...dead-gidget-time-tunnel-tj-hooker-1235989762/

I saw Jimmy Carter turns 100 on Oct 1. If he passes after that does the person who picked him get any points
No, they would get 0 points. Though it would give us the chance to mock @Section 336 for getting 2 picks and still only having 6 points.
Kris Kristofferson could not beat the devil, and @BrowningNagle takes the lead @BrowningNagle 50 @The Waterboy 47 @Savatage 28 @FJF 11 @Section 336 6 @abyzmul Prince Andrew, Duke of York, 63 James Whale 71 Marianne Faithfull 75 Phil Collins 72 Sam Neill 76 Sly Stone, 80 Andy Taylor 61 @Section 336 Jimmy Carter 100 Vanessa Redgrave 86 Charlie Sheen 57 Harvey Weinstein 70 Bob Newhart 94 Woody Allen 87 Gene Hackman 92 @BrowningNagle Tom Brokaw 83 Michael Jones AKA Virgil 72 Ted Turner 85 Tila Tequila 41 Don King 91 Andy Dick 56 Kris Kristofferson 88 @JackBower Patrick Leahy 83 Delonte West 40 Joe Arapaio 90 Oscar Robinson 85 Christopher Walken 79 Tim Curry 77 Steven Tyler 74 @FJF Bill Cosby 85 George Soros 92 Jerry Sandusky 78 Marv Levy 97 Robert Blake 89 Daniel Hernandez AKA 6ix9ine 26 Buzz Aldrin 92 @The Waterboy Dick Cheney 81 Vladimir Putin 70 Joe Bugner 73 Shannen Doherty 53 Josef Fritzl 88 Pope Francis 87 Linda Nolan 64 @Savatage Jack Nicholson 85 Chris Mortensen 71 Bruce Willis 69 Bob Eubanks 86 Ozzy Osbourne 74 Keith Richards 78 Al Roker 68 @jetophile Lester Holt 65 Mary Lou Retton 56 Chet Hanks 33 Rocco Ritchie 23 Deborah Norville 65 Jeremy London 51 Frankie Munoz 38 @Jets OG fan Donald Trump 78 Mitch McConnel 82 Mary-Kate Olsen 38 Clint Eastwood 94 Robert Downey Jr 59 Joe Maldonado (Joe Exotic) 61 Lawrence Taylor 65[/QUOTE]
1st death of the year bonus points. You are a non-player trying to take points from me. Join in and then you can pick things apart, until then let the waterboy keep score
Why would I want to take points from anyone if I'm not in it? Hope you're joking. Trying to figure out the scoring. I played one year, did okay but didn't like rooting for people to die.
