The Celebrity Death Pool 2010

Maybe he had surgery to bypass Sally Field, and Loni Anderson, and …

Rather ironic for someone who named his son Quentin!

that reads sort of like that episode is already in the can - we’ll know soon enough - the new season starts in 3 weeks (I lurves me some Michael Weston)

Holy diver, Batman! Ronnie James Dio dies of stomach cancer.

Forgot to add that I had Dio. Looks like he was 67 so my first 33 points of the year. I predict the start of a bloodbath which will catapult me to the lead. I’m looking at you, Ariel Sharon.

Jay Leno had Betty White the other night, and Cosby tonight.

I get points for that right?

Oh, DEATH pool, not Leno pool.

Darn.

If all goes according to projections, the death of Arlen Specter’s political career is nigh.

Even if he kiils himself out of shame (doubtful because he has none) his would be another pointless death from my POV.

Martin Gardner, mathemetician, writer, Lewis Carroll expert and all-around Renaissance man died May 22 at 95.

Jose Lima, former All-Star pitcher in Major League Baseball, dead at age 37.

5 points for Spiff.

Simon Monjack the husband of Brittany Murphy was found dead.

Amazing. What a sad thing.

Reminds

Holy crap. One of my favorite players; I remember arguing some place online that the Astros really needed to give him a chance in '97.

Still, I’m sad he died. He was a true Renaissance man.

I just read that Edward Uhl, the guy that developed the bazooka anti-tank weapon, died May 9 at the age of 92.

Slipknot bassist Paul Gray, dead at 68 points.

Donald “Buz” Lukens, a U.S. Representative from Ohio who was considered a rising star in Congress before a series of scandals derailed his career, has died at 79. Lukens was a second-term Congressman when he was convicted in 1989 of paying a sixteen-year-old girl for sex. After losing in the Republican primary the next year, he resigned his seat shortly before the general election, but was convicted in 1996 on a charge of bribery after being accused of taking $15,000 from two Cincinnati businessmen during his term in exchange for votes.

He was 38 - doesn’t that make it 62 points?

Maybe 68 points is the name of the place where he croaked. :stuck_out_tongue:
