Another cracking headline from the BBC: Read next: Who is Adolf Hitler? The downfall of a talented painter

Alright, I have submitted all the teams that I am going to submit for 2022 (except for my not super-competitive shadow list, which already exists in my excel file). So I am now going to add the already submitted teams to my 2022 database, starting with the publicly posted ones. Depending on my speed and headache intensity, I will probably reply to the PMs tomorrow.

Assunta "Pupetta" Maresca, beauty queen-turned-Camorra figure, dead at 86. Made international headlines in the 1950s when she murdered the man who killed her husband, Camorra don Pasquale Simonetti.

There's no room for sentimentality in Deadpooling. Agreed

Wow, this could be big. This could be very big indeed!! US lawyer/politician Harry Reid has decided that he has seen enough of 2021 and has clocked out a few days early. He is a hit for two people in this pool. One is Nantonian who scrapes into a tie for 10th. The other is me and the huge points total for Reid sees me over-take the long-term leader Drol with only 3 days to go. An Fear Beag (2799 points) 12 hits [Belinda Sykes*, Bernard Tapie, Bob Dole, David Gulpilil, Dilip Kumar, Harry Reid, Jimmy Greaves, Larry King, Leon Spinks, Lilian Priest, Rush Limbaugh, Yoo Sang Chul] Drol (2716 points) 15 hits [David Gulpilil. Dilip Kumar*, Dovid Soloveitchic, Emmanuel Evans-Anfom, Ernie Moss, Florence Alice Lubega, Frank Worthington, Gerd Muller, Greg Gilbert, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Mikis Theodorakis, Norman Lloyd, Ruthie Tompson, Toko Shinodam, Vittore Bochetta ] Can Drol muster up one more hit from his list of crusty old world leaders, or can I hold out for 3 days to win my own competition, in true Fr. Ted style? I think my screen time is going to shoot through the roof for the next 3 days as I check Drol's remaining picks every 5 minutes!

Sent a team in yesterday.

Mikey 'Mao' Chung, who played with Sly & Robbie & Black Uhuru, as well as Peter Tosh and a plethora of other notable names, has died aged 71.

WinterCake? More like FruitCake. There's nothing wrong with her.

I do not think Queen Elizabeth will die in 2022. I think her demise will be long and slow (remember the Viz Queen Mother memorial teatowel joke). I think there will be at least one Christmas where she does not deliver her Christmas message before the end. However I do see her along with Carter and Pope Benedict as too big to miss so understand her continued presence on the DL

Oh, nope! I'll only be including the list you submit here and won't be cross-checking lists in that way! Because of the laxness of the rules, I'm barely checking them as is I'm sure you have your reasons for making the two lists different!

Curious,do you know any other French celebs over 70 who are unvaxxed? Asking for a friend who doesn't play any deadpools at all.

I presume so. I've been following this rule since I started.

I play with that rule personally.

Babes.

Guilty on five of the six counts with which she was charged.

He is off my list this year, a good indication that his days are numbered...

An outsider for 2022 maybe. If she enters a plea bargain to name others then it gets interesting..

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10354063/The-Duke-Kent-publish-memoir-just-Princes-bombshell-book.html This is an interesting and to my mind unexpected development. The Duke of Kent, a very close confidante of his cousin the Queen , is set to release his memoirs in May next year. Certainly a sign that in part he is looking towards his legacy and getting his perspective, thoughts and feelings on public record while he still can. Might be of some relevance to those picking names for deadpools.

Entry submitted via PM

Not really sure you want him at spot 50, as every person since 2017 has died the year they took that coveted 50th spot!

Unlikely he would have got a QO through.

Would Bill Gates' father have been a philanthropist without his son's fortune?

Maybe worth considering Dennis Skinner who has been uncharacteristically quiet for over 2 years now and will be 90 in six weeks time.
