Joey Russ

It's Margaret Thatcher, she doesn't give a damn if she's called a racist or not.

This is the type of research that I like. Might stuff one or two of them on a B Team if I come around to making one...

So, are the other 10 people who liked his post racist as well?

Bill Gates is no longer the world's richest person.

I noticed Death Impends changed his avatar to June Foray. A good way to pay tribute to her after her demise I personally think, given her importance in his deadpooling career.

I don't think he wants to die sitting on his chair...

It's okay, we all have those moments...

Nah, they'll all be gone. Cancer mum is used just a lot because they're the most common type of the OFFBIAD club.

Just a thought that came into my, maybe you could seperate the main competition into, well kind of, two separate brackets: a rookie's bracket and a veteran bracket. Since rookies are unlikely to win (especially with the improved research nowadays), I think it might be a good idea to give potential bragging rights to the rookies who are playing for the first time. Of course, if they win the whole thing, that'll be double bragging rights for them.

I think they do. Michael Perham, for example, got a telegraph obit, and that's all from qualifying sources (as while he did get a BBC obituary, it wasn't one from a qualifying source). I think if you do remove the times/telegraph as obit sources Spade, I think you should probably bring an obit source into the competition, such as allowing local BBC obituaries again or bringing something like The New York Times into play. Though in the end, it is your rules, so I can't complain whatever you decide to do...

You must be hoping he'll compensate some points before the next Advent Avalanche.

I agree. One of the biggest hypocrisies in our government that should be outlawed for sure.

Right, so here's a totally not randomly selected team: Country: Kris Kristofferson Glen Campbell Garth Brooks subs: Blake Shelton Shania Twain Rap: Kanye West Grandmaster Flash Ice Cube sub: Jay Z Dr Dre Pop: Justin Beiber Olivia Newton John Paul McCartney sub: Adele Barry Gibb Rock/Band: Johnny Hallyday David Byrne Ozzy Osbourne (got to put my favorite in) subs: Keith Richards Elvis Costello Soul: Vera Lynn Smokey Robinson Aretha Franklin subs: Charles Aznavour Tony Bennett As you can probably tell, I'm not taking it that seriously at all.

Just looking through the teams, did Jacque Fresco obit? A couple of people have him...

Wait, who was he again?

And an even sadder day when we lose Joey Russ's favorite, Ozzy Osbourne.

We're now tied with our record last year. Will we break it this year?

What if I wanted to put Maynard James Keenan from Tool on my team? They are a well known metal band, but he doesn't allow any of his music on Spotify. So does that mean he's not allowed?

When the full on repeal Obamacare without replacement vote came, McCain was one of 7 republicans to vote no on that. Good man...

Oh, so he was on the 1988 list that was lost in the mist of time. You're a genius...

So are you... (accusations of being a racist coming in 3, 2, 1...)

How about a dead pool surrounding music?

Agreed. It is prostate cancer, and unless we know for certain it has spread, it's not the best idea to pick them. And sorry about the telly, my yankness got in the way this time...

Oh, I'm sure there's a fairly large amount of republicans who will constantly cry his impeachment isn't right and blame it on the democrats as usual...

People would call him a martyr if he got impeached. The republicans who voted for him love him.
