Sir Creep

What a cunt.

Well until today's post, I had totally forgotten about this DP, and Ciara Nelson for that matter. So checking up on her today, appears she got a neurosurgeon to remove her 'inoperable' brain tumour, and has a second chance on life (for now). Great news and good for her. She's kind of a hottie, so if you're an Aussie and about 20, just sayin.... SC

William Golding - 25 years ago (81).

Sir Creep (Bush, Butts, Cappotelli, Crawford, Cox, Douthit, Lang, Pratley, Quinn, Silsbee, Tiwari) So down 2-nil, where are we going to get points from? Quick team review with 11 days left. Butts/Cappotelli/Quinn are all on DDT's team. OUT (0% makes no difference) Bush: 3 hospitals in 3 months...but looks to have recovered, very very very unlikely he would succumb to death inside of a few days. But let's give him till the 27th. If he's alive, he's fine. (3%) Crawford: in home hospice. He's not posting, those days are done (I think). Friends said he was aware but slowly losing it end of May. I'm banking on him as my first hit. (75%) Cox: has been in a coma and for whatever reason when Sir Creep picks a comatose person they carry on nicely. Unless he strokes out, which could happen, he'll probably survive. (20%) Douthit: fooled me, but I listened to her doctor daughter. At least I wasn't the only one, gcreptile has her as his 5-point play this month in 5-4-3-2-1 DP. Now she tweets she has 12-18 months to live (1%) Lang: another comatose person, cancer on the brain etc. Can't have long. He better be hit #2. (65%) Pratley: hadn't been heard from in 7 weeks, but finally posted 'I'm getting chemo' when he was supposed to be dying. I fell for a pretty face again. (5%) Silsbee: Definitely on his way out, but wife posted a few days ago his daily routine, which sounded like he may have 5-6 weeks to go rather than 2. I really need the Reaper's aid on this one. (30%) Tiwari: Wife said he's in his end of life cycle...which is why I jumped on him again. Who knows. Sounds like she was dramatic. (10%) When I saw the lineups I figured DDT 3-1, and I bet that will be right. But right now hoping for a tie. SC

We didn't have a thread (or 5) to cover this? Delete this shit immediately, please. Thank you admins.

A barn full of Mexican children may disagree.

He's a nobody in general. DL is big names, mostly old, some with health issues. There are zero B-listers on DL. Ross could have a confirmed heart attack every day for the rest of 2018 and he wouldn't appear on DL 2019. SC

Many countries have one (if not they have a first man). Koppish? Including past and present, there's a shitload of them. SC

Wopo is nomo

Didn't even know we had this thread. May as well use it.

Never understood why Zarin got a QO, and won't when Leakes does. That said, I won't be missing the boat this time through the channel. SC

So to date, 4 of my salvage lot have died, while only 3 of my DDP team has. Dunno if Belcher will get a QO, and Stewart almost certainly didn't. So there's that~~

Screw it, it's going here. First you play to a 1-1 draw with Iceland. Now THIS! A naked man has died falling from a sixth floor flat onto a crowd of Argentina fans in Moscow.

Not a bovine attack -- but Danniel, the local holstein who measured as the tallest dairy cow in the world, has died. Lost Coast Hay, the local feed company that cared for Danniel in his final years, shared the news on the its Facebook page yesterday. Blossom, the dairy cow previously recognized by Guiness World Records as the tallest cow on earth, was measured 6-feet 2-inches tall before her death in 2015. A Sequoia Park Zoo veterinarian confirmed in 2016 that Danniel was several inches taller than Blossom. Lost Coast Hay offered to care for Danniel in 2016, after thee Sequoia Park Zoo — who was volunteering to care for the giant animal at that time — put out the word that feeding the 6-foot 4-inch, 2,300-pound dairy cow was straining its budget. Mooooove over Blossom, there's a new 'tallest cow' in heaven. SC

Second half begins, and again the Month-to-Month Tenants use up all available substitutions, putting their best goal scorers on the pitch. They'll be relying on Crawford, Lang, and Silsbee to carry the team's fortunes.
