Objection.
This is a freshman walk-on football player. Never even played in an actual college game. Probably non-famous, except that he was just diagnosed with leukemia, and the college is now rallying around him.
Wow, you take this seriously!
Just to make you feel better, I literally spent less than 10 minutes last evening filling out my 10. Mostly by thinking of someone, and doing a search on wikipedia to see if they were still alive (one wasn’t, Gary Coleman. I was on the right track!)
I say this only to make you feel better if I score more points than you. If I don’t I will start my list next June.
