Well, THIS is going to be a lot of work for me, with so many people picking Etta James.
At least I am not alone at annoying the Mistress of Death.
Etta James was an easy 2012 celebrity death to predict IMO. Too easy. Same as Chavez, Gibb and many others. Who had her?
Too old. None of my picks are over 70.
Well, all six folks who shared the Opening Kickoff Award also picked Etta James. So first place hasn’t changed. Sixty-four other players picked her, which means there’s a really big tie for second place. You know who you are.
Like amarone did, shortly after the end of each month I’ll post current standings in detail.
Just like Zsa Zsa in 2011?
ETA: Yes! Equal 2nd! My highest ranking ever!
WOOHOO!!! I’m in second place!
I have officially lost my Death Pool Virginity to… Etta James! Yay me!
Scootch over fellow second-placers, make room for me please!
I’ve had quite a few people IRL text FBPM me to ask me if I had Etta James.
If it wasn’t for dead people, I’d have no social life.
Woo hoo!
IIRC, there were quite a few news stories at the end of last year about Etta James’s declining health. On the other hand, there were stories about Aretha Franklin’s pancreatic cancer at the end of 2010, and look where that got us. And Zsa Zsa looked like a sure thing back then, too. You win some, you lose some.
I still think we should have gotten partial credit for her leg amputation. Part of her died!
We will not even discuss the freaking Lockerbie bomber. :mad:
Points is points.
Legs is legs.
Get over it.
Why? Did he blow up? Partly blow up? Was someone trying to claim points based on gobbets of flesh strewn around?
Me too! Does it make you feel cheap that we lost our Death Pool virginity in a death orgy? I was kind of hoping for something a little more intimate.
Ett’s death was kind of the “all swim” session of the Death Pool.
You do know Wikipedia lists his birthday as being April 1?
He is alive in Libya.
what’s this “all” you speak of? :dubious:
Poor, cute baby!
