George H. W. Bush in the hospital, with bronchitis
Former pro wrestler Buddy Roberts (real name Dale Hey) died today at age 65.
And those of us with our list pre-made, formatting and all will be right behind you.
:mad:
Except for those of us that can’t this year. Morning shifts mumble mumble mumble.
Nine hours and forty-nine minutes!
The holidays do so excite Baker! 
Where the hell is the damn 2013 death pool 
It’s got to be Dec 1 GMT, isn’t it?:):)
It’s been December 1 for 14 and a half hours and there’s still no new thread!
The bright side of being in this part of the world is posting your list in the early afternoon on New Year’s Day and still being on time 
I’ve got two hours and five minutes to make the new thread!
:mad: :mad: :mad:
Here I am, with my notepad open, ready to cut and paste.
And you go and tell me you are a time zone apart from me
We go by REAL time in this contest! Central Standard Time!
Back in 1976 I was stationed in South Korea. I was in radio communications. We recorded all our data in Zulu time, which is Greenwich Mean Time, so that no adjustments had to be made when matching with the work of units in other time zones.
We had this asshole of a commanding officer, Col. Black, who, when touring the facility I worked in, told us “Don’t give it to me in Zulu Time, give it to me in real time!” by which he meant local time. Then he was pissed when we had to do a short calculation to do the conversion. Dumbass.
this is the same guy who put a guard on a concrete statue of a tiger when someone pulled it’s teeth out. Heck, it was alread ugly, couldn’t get any worse.
He was also a misogynist who didn’t believe women belonged in the military. He snubbed a visiting general over the issue, General Clark. General MARY Clark. His rudeness got him a new post, an assisting commanding position somewhere in Texas.
Looks like Jovan Belcher won’t be on any '13 lists…
Wow! :eek:
Also wow! :eek: 
CBB Coach Rick Majerus has passed. (per my Twitter feed)
Confirmed. Age 64.
shucks I had the wrong bball coach on my list as I think that Gene is still acting as a consultant to Steve at St. Johns

Still barely holding on to a top 20 finish. But I’m still hoping my remaining picks are planning a trip on a leaky boat before the end of the year.
In a “He was still alive?” moment, Dave Brubeck has passed away.
I’ll take my whopping 9 points for Brubeck.
