David Attenborough is now pointless
(to clarify he has just passed 100, not that he is dead.
“David Attenborough excluded from his own documentary ‘the living planet’ “ would be his death announcement)
Two P. Caputos, both journalists, died yesterday (no relation that I’m aware of): Detroit sports columnist/podcaster Pat Caputo and Vietnam War author and journalist Philip Caputo.
Posted 26 Apr.
Bob Skinner, who played on MLB World Championship teams in Pittsburgh and St. Louis, and won a third as a coach, dies with six points left on base.
Bobby Cox, longtime manager of the Atlanta Braves, has made his last move to the bullpen.
There are three of us (by my quick search of the thread) that had Ted Turner and 13 points:
AS123
Lamoral
Railer13
That is points for me, and I think Slow_Moving_Vehicle
I apologize to Baker for posting what I think may be the current standings.
MichaelBardella got a unique pick for the Norris guy, along with the 3 picks mentioned above for Ted Turner and 2 for Bobby Cox.
This is approximately where we are at

Huzzah, I’ve finally scored my first points in years! And although I posted his death, even I had forgotten I picked Bob Skinner.
It appears that Bob Skinner was one of your alternates, and he did not replace anyone on your list (unless I missed something), so you almost scored points.
Still closer than I’ve come in years!
