If you were looking for a likely former sports star for the draft Imran Khan would have been worth a late round flyer. Former Pakistani cricketer of some repute who became PM but was ousted in a coup recently. Persona non grata for the current Pakistan regime and already been in the receiving end of one assassination attempt in the last few months.
So the question is, do I burn in hell because this got me a little excited this morning https://espanol.yahoo.com/noticias/papa-francisco-pidió-rezar-especialmente-101838828.html Pope Francis asked to pray especially for the health of Benedict XVI because "he is very sick"
Those 5 points will be a cheap thrill. Another stage 4 diagnosis that nobody saw: https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/modest-mouse-drummer-jeremiah-green-050637706.html

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/jan/01/modest-mouse-jeremiah-green-dies Modest Mouse founding member Jeremiah Green dies at age 45 I couldn't remember if he was picked or just mentioned. Had someone had him that would have been a big lead to start the year.
Carter was the first Presidential election I can remember vividly. I remember the Nixon/McGovern somewhat. Only 2 points, he was a pick trying to nab the first one bonus.
