That’s my inverse chances ruined. Had RBG in the middle of my list. Better luck next year

NPR is quite reliable

The legend that is George Clinton turned 77 two days ago. It was reported that he was retiring from touring in 2019, but even if that didn’t happen, I felt it was time to give the greatest living funk musician his own thread. So here’s hoping that he keeps funkin’ until the day he dies...

Some of us also picked Pat Smullen here

The Deathlist should keep it like this, ngl:

Decided to do a poll to guess the 100th hit of one of the all time dead pooling greats. I believe he's currently at 88 hits in total if my math is correct, so with his track record I think it's likely he gets to 100 total hits. Only 19 names though in the poll, as Qaboos is already a hit for him. Personally I'm going for Scruton as he can have a hit to celebrate that achievement with.

So John Lewis was 95, Frankie Banali was 96, and Pat Smullen was 97. He only need 3 more hits this year to reach 100, but the clock is slowly ticking...

Possible that Crouch is a Covid fatality?

I think often the non cancer related hospices last a lot longer than people expect. Though even the cancer hospice names can last a while (see Joey Feek as a prime example)

I wonder if I’ll finally get over 12 hits total in 2020? There’s enough names that it’s plausible, although the clock is slowly ticking...

Currently does not have a BBC obit. He might be the 2nd one in over a decade to not get one and might even be the first to not get a Last Word mention

Already at 3 out of 6 dead in about 2 weeks. I’m pretty confident the survivors will end up going before early March... but will it be quick enough? We’ll see...

September 24

From one dull pick to another, I choose John Edrich

Don’t worry about missing Little Richard and John Hume, at least we get Bill Gates dad!

Seems like Pat Smullen has jockeyed up the scoreboard a bit.

Pat Smullen is a hit for me, and I imagine others picked him as well.

More will come, but Daily Star for the time being

Nah, The Love Boat had him as well

Edouard Balladur has now tested positive for COVID

US Rep Ron Wright, who I’m sure we all had on our radars last year for lung cancer is currently hospitalized for cancer treatment. Hm...

She’s going to fuck up everyone in inverse, isn’t she?

Many folk are expecting Trebek or Leon Spinks to go any day now, yet the real person who needs to watch out into becoming the next hit is actually John Edrich...
