2025 SDMB Celebrity Death Pool

Update please, @Baker? With Fish gone I’m finally out of the 80’s.

Dave Coulier diagnosed with tongue cancer.

Dave: So what’s the next step, doc?

Doctor: Cut. It. Out!

Dave: Too soon.

I just put him on my 2026 list a few hours ago. I had not seen this. Creepy.

NBA veteran Elden Campbell has blocked his last shot. Age 57.

Yep, he won a championship with Detroit Pistons in 2004. Sad.

Sad that he died at 57, or sad that the Pistons won a championship?

Obviously sad that he died young. I’m a Pistons fan.

The Colonel, Steve Cropper has died.

Play it Steve.

Siena men’s lacrosse coach Liam Gleason has died after a fall at his home. He was 41.

Today I learned that Stoppard did an uncredited rewrite for Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

Update: Campbell apparently died from drowning after a “medical emergency.”

As previously immortalised in The Onion

Roy Kramer, former Southeastern Conference football commissioner, has passed at age 96.

---->NOT DEAD <-----

George Blaha, the Pistons announcer for pretty much my entire life, sounds ill when I watch the Pistons games lately.

He’s 80 and I find myself wondering if he is ill.

Anyone else notice?

I wasn’t familiar with him, but 39 is far too young.
