He looks a lot more rough than George W. Bush, who is 74. Of course, some might offer that it was really Dick Cheney handling most of the work lol.
-
Well, he died in January, so that was 6 hits in January for me. I'm better at this than I am at most things in life! There's a joke in there somewhere.
-
A pretty solid pick by the committee after all, it would appear. Sucks to hear this news.
-
Well that certainly escalated quickly.

Well known for his stint at Temple, and for his fiery demeanor, Hall Of Fame coach John Chaney has died at the age of 89. -
That's true, but I do think it could be close, for two reasons. One, Biden is 4 years older. And two, Biden is the one currently in the office, and he'll actually take the job seriously, which means he'll get stressed like most presidents do.
-
I should have had him on my radar. I knew he was frail, but I guess I just didn't think he was ready to go in his mid-80's. Mistake by me.

A remarkable performer, and someone that very well could've (should've?) been on the List. She won 8 Primetime Emmys (tied with Julia Louis-Dreyfus for the most ever) from 22 nominations, not to mention an Oscar, a Golden Globe, and even a BAFTA. Hit #5 for me already. May she RIP.
-
A stunning miss here.
-
Charles has aged, yes. But he doesn't look frail.
-
He looks like he's aged a lot more than 2+ years since this picture.
-
Yeah, quite dire, damn. Who is more likely to go first, Diamond or Rush Limbaugh? Still Limbaugh, I'd guess.

Clinton and GW Bush are the same age and Bush looks considerably better. Clinton has heart problems and is frail, and his father died before he was born and his mother died at the age of 70. Bush has no known health issues and his parents lived to old age, so I would expect him to live for at least another 20 years. As I said in the Clinton thread, I'm not sure that he makes it to 80, and would wager that he doesn't if forced to bet on it. Trump's parents lived to the ages of 93 (father) and 88 (mother), so he has that going for him, but he's also an obese man who loves fast food. I don't see him making it to 90. As for Biden, it looks like his parents lived long lives, so he has that going for him. Biden isn't as sharp as a tack like, say, Dr. Fauci is (who is 80), but I think it's important to note that Biden was never considered to be a highly-intelligent student, has long made public speaking gaffes, and has dealt with a stutter for most of his life. This is all to say that I don't think he's suffering some sort of massive cognitive decline at his age. I think he could live past 90, although the stress of the job of POTUS could completely change that. That's a fair point, so I'll set his Over/Under at 86.5 years. I'll set Trump at 85.5, Bush at 92.5, and Clinton at 79.5 years. And, of course, Carter has very limited time left, and I'd be surprised if he sees 2022. Then again, this is a dude who had brain cancer as a 90-year-old and is still somehow with us.
-
He does look quite frail for someone who is 74 years of age. He's already hoarse, and he's been that way for a while. He's thin as a rail if not gaunt, and his skin looks, well, old. His death may not be imminent, but this does not look like a dude who is going to live well into his 80's. I'd say that he'll struggle to make 80.
-
He sure is. Forgive me if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but he shared on Twitter just now that not only is today his 64th wedding anniversary, but that his wife, Vivienne, has been fighting cancer.

Hall of Fame pitcher Don Sutton, a 300-game winner, died last night at the age of 75, according to his son, as shared on Twitter.

Yeah, joker candidate for '22 if he makes it that far. Kind of similar to Tom Parker, although with what he has, there's virtually ZERO chance he makes it to '23 (Parker). We've seen some stage 4 cancer patients live more than a couple of years, depending on which type of cancer it is, with Olivia Newton-John being a prime example.
-
Dustin Diamond, if he happens to make it almost another full year with stage 4 cancer. Just 44 years old, also.
-
Stage 4, damn.
-
Well, there's a guaranteed 2021 hit. Looks like he will go mere months after Horn died.

Shirley Povich was a longtime sports columnist for the Washington Post. And, yes, he was Maury Povich's father. -
Thanks for that info. I think I'll keep him in 8th position, behind Mr. Wonderful (naturally) and ahead of Ric Flair.
-
Yeah, the latter is surely not a help, but that may not affect him. I wonder how serious the throat cancer reoccurence is. I ask because I have my 2021 Draft coming up with my buddies. I've tentatively moved him up to 8th on my Wrestler list.
-
It's probably earlier in the thread, but is the reappearance of his cancer considered a death sentence?
