> I don’t think I’ve ever had anyone of my picks die during the year. Repeated wholesale failures caused me to stay away from the 2018 Pool but I decided I’m just going to keep using [my previous list until some of them just fucking die already](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=19877146&postcount=206) (no, none of them died _this_ year either).

I’m still heeding **Happy Lendervedder** ’s advice to do a clean list, without commentary, lest the Death Mistress give me the stink eye and curse my loins:

Jimmy Carter  
Donald Trump  
Henry Kissinger  
Sandy Koufax  
Curly Neal  
Bobby Bowden  
Buzz Aldrin  
Clint Eastwood  
Fred Silverman  
Ron Popeil

Alternates

Al Jaffee  
Bill Cosby  
Regis Philbin
