Willie Nelson anyone?
Pretty sure if Willie was going to die, he would've died a long time ago.
He did but like Keith Richards,no one can tell.

RIP Kent Dorfman
Quote:

The actor and filmmaker was well known for his breakout role of Flounder in 'Animal House.' Stephen Furst, perhaps best known as Flounder in Animal House, died Friday from complications with diabetes.

One of the first "adult" comedies I ever stayed up late to watch on cable (after my parents were asleep).

a story I saw very early this morning, his son's said in released statement to watch one of his movies today, or just tell a someone on his one liners. Right away, this was the one I thought of, but I didn't go anywhere I could have done it.

Showing my age,...when that movie came out, we ate pot brownies and sat on the front row. Never laughed so hard at a movie,...ironic part was that one of my roommates looked & acted just like Bluto. He couldn't get into A&M, but did graduate from Sam Houston. Irony still rings today, as he is now an corporate executive.

How does a list like this not include Olivia De Havilland?! Last of the stalwart movie stars. OH, she's 101

Two reasons:

1. She refuses to die...as does Kirk Douglas
2. My list is so much more than a sorted list of celebrities. Anyone can dork out and do that.

Look for Jan-Michael Vincent to go next.

Artie Lange


I had Artie Lange in my death pool that year he chugged bleach and tried stabbing himself like on Jan 3rd.

Man that would have been huge.

I had to Wiki Jan-Michael Vincent to see why he's on this list.

So we have time to establish a proper rules for 2018

Some people are really good at this



But thinking it should be you pick 10 people and we give pointers based on age range

Clearly the old people are less valuable than the young stars

This is gonna be a great year

Why not the standard 100 - age for point scoring, with a 24 hour waiting period for waiver claims?
Corporal Punishment

Some good ideas here but no waivers though. Pick 10 and stick to your guns the whole year.

Have your "roster" turned in by New Years Day.

I'm also ok if a person shows up on multiple rosters. Hell...I even encourage it because you know a bunch of losers will just nominate really old people and end up getting smoked by more skilled players focusing on folks burning the candle at both ends.

100 minus age seems like a workable formula. However, treat persons older than 100 as if they are "only" 100, or perhaps even declare them ineligible ("lifetime" ban or somesuch).

I'm all over this.

I'm ok with no waivers but if i lose a roster member to death's sweet embrace can i fill that spot with a fresher inhabitant?

Maybe for the 100+ people you get a roster bonus if they don't die? But yeah, to me there's no incentive to pick someone that old.

I'd say no. As your list gets pared down, competitors can admire its increasing brevity.

My vote would be to keep it a "death" watch, not a "life" watch. I would hate for the contest to be anything other than morbid. Seems like that's kind of the point.

But hey, I'm just one vote here.

Maybe you lose points if your centurions are still alive? I dunno. No biggie to leave them out completely.

I like the increasing brevity showboating factor but i also like to run up the score if possible.

Lol "running up the score"

There should be bonus points for randomly listing former b list celebrities who haven't been in the national conscience for decades and then actually having said person die.

I'm still baffled by you calling your shot on Erin Moran earlier this year. Crazy.

It's a pretty euphoric feeling when you get to cash a younger one in.

Brief hijack...

Remember the mean old man headmaster from Dead Poets Society? Yeah, he's still alive. Norman Lloyd will be 103 in November.

Dude's got serious game.

You successfully predicted the demise of a 94 year old man that spent years taking blows to the head.

Well done.
