The Celebrity Death Pool 2006

Just to print the rest of Sean’s picks (who should be hiding in their beds about now):

Pete Doherty – British rocker and crack addict
Stephen Hawking – “The Simpson’s” voice over actor and really smart guy Charlton Heston – one-time spokesman for God
Don Ho – world’s most famous Hawaiian
Kurt Vonnegut – author
Harold Pinter – playwright and 2005 Nobel Prize (Literature) winner
Lady Bird Johnson – former FLOTUS
Tammy Faye Bakker Resner – former Norfolk VA television personality

YES!

I mean…I’m very sorry to hear that.
The preceding has been a verbatim account of Hal’s thoughts as he read the news this morning.

I really suck at this. Did a lot of posters have Dana on their lists?

They are dropping like flies again.

Who had Dana Reeves?

Hell, I can’t even remember some of my picks.

Off of a quick count, I’ll put it at about 15 or so – list.

Gah.

What medicinal herb and cold medicine must I ingest on a full moon to have the Dark Vision of the Grim Reaper’s we have here?
I feel like I need some kind of DeathPool Viagara or something, if you know what I mean.
Still, I popped my cherry for 2006, I should be happy.

All I can do is hope Natasha Lyonne cashes in.

Is that evil?

I tend to update my list when it’s one of my own. :smiley:
The dead are in red.

That was the best pick of last year. No one new he was sick as of Dec. 31.

By the way, how many points does SF have now? It’s only March, but I’m starting to think it’s getting out of hand.

Stop your whining! At least you scored. This is my second year and still nothing. Year one, picked Jerry Orbach and he croaks three days early. Year two, pick Ariel Sharon and he will probably hang on till next year. The Grim Reaper is teasing me.

By my calculations, using 85 as the age for Shelly Winters, I have 161 points. But I’m a little biased, so that may not be the official count.

Superman’s Curse continues…

A fat 56 points for the 22 dopers who had Dana Reeve

OK, that is two high value stiffs in as many days. Who passes beyond the rim next? The Olsen twins?

Well, they always go in threes.
We had Don Knotts, Dennis Weaver and Darrin McGavin all go within, what, a four or five day span?

And now we’ve had two young relatively celebrities, Kirby Puckett and Dana Reeve go in two days. Who’s next?

Michael J. Fox?

I realize there will be a level of questionable-taste comments in this & I may well contribute myself, but might this be a bit beyond the line?

Don Knotts?
Dana Reeve?

It’s very scarey :eek: :eek:

Donny Osmund should watch his back.
