As with every deadpool, it's a learning curve to familiarize yourself with the particulars. Witness my spectacular 46th place finish my first year playing it (out of 59 teams).

The focus on younger picks is part of the strategy, but not all of it (at least not for me). And a little luck never hurts, with Daily Doubles, birthday hits and bonus points for people who die during the last week of the calendar year.

That she is. Turned 89 earlier this year.

I went by what the article says. Surname listed definitely is incorrectly spelled, you are right on that. The title 'presenter' is somewhat subjective and can be difficult to define, particularly for those of us in North America where the title isn't used at all. Equivalent term is 'anchor', though the two may not mean exactly the same thing.
