Captain Hemlock

Mangosuthu Buthelezi is a hit for me.

Definitely my most surprising unique pick in this game although Robin Leach also shocked me a bit the year I was the only one picking him.

Surprised you missed Marlon Brando for 2004

He's going "On and On". LOL

Rupert Holmes also wrote the song Timothy, a big hit for the Buoys in 1971. The song is about cannibalism. I’m not kidding.

I had both Barker and Prigozhin as mid year replacements but it doesn’t look like my score changed from last time.

More like an “enema” of crumble hits.

Well, we know one list that won't have Jimmy Carter on it

Entered this one for the first time. I don't expect to do well here.

Woody Allen’s father lived to be 100. I don’t think he’s a good pick at all.

On my DDP theme team.

It’s fun to see who got so little attention despite many forum mentions. I would have thought Wendy Williams, John Astin, and Mario Zagallo would have been much higher up.

Hmm, not bad, 3 of my subs dead within 2 months.

Bob Barker gives me hit #7 here. Please add Dianne Feinstein to subs list.

Since it looks like Yevgeny Prigozhin didn’t make it, please sub in Mangosuthu Buthelezi.

I think I may have mentioned this before but you have the wrong Joe Schmidt listed. I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be this guy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Schmidt_(American_football)

Erkin Koray, terrific Turkish rock pioneer is dead at 82. When I was in Sweden back in 2019, I had a great conversation with a Turkish guy who referred to him as “the Alice Cooper of Turkey” https://www.dailysabah.com/arts/music/turkish-rock-legend-erkin-koray-dies-at-age-of-82

You misspelled Henry Kissinger on my list. Other than that it looks good.

Yannick Noah is pretty well known here in the US as his son Joakim was a very good basketball player.

Fixed that for you.
