Damn, sorry I didn't see this notification sooner. How about Francisca Celsa dos Santos

Given Woods' history, it was disappointing to hear the sheriff say in his press conference that blood would not be taken for toxicology. Guess cars just roll themselves violently, in California, when a celebrity is behind the wheel. This actually speaks to why this thread may have some legitimacy: everyone enables him. When he destroyed his own car in Florida while all pilled up and was subsequently arrested the sports media was quick to let bygones be bygones as soon as his PR team released a form-letter apology. Do not recall anything resembling real apology, for his actions, ever crossing his lips. Nobody in the golf world held him accountable for completely blowing off Arnold Palmer's memorial service after he spent the days before getting busted up at the Ryder Cup. Hell, you're not even allowed to ask about that. The protective PR bubble in which he's been allowed to live has been his downfall.

Guessing anything illicit was already inside him.

The toxicology report is going to be very interesting. Everyone just let him off the hook with a form-letter-apology from his PR team after the drug-driving arrest in 2017 but I always doubted he ever got clean. Guess we'll see. Here's a picture of how he looked this past Sunday:

Jose Maria Marin

well, those were a tense few hours, days, weeks

Yes, I've a lot riding on his fate... though, you also have him in most homes in which I already trail you. As for it being "good to be the king" lol, I'm sure it used to be. Back before Skinny started creating issues the site-wide points winner got to pick the following year's bonus category.... which was a goal of mine... but they stopped doing that. The site doesn't even really get any lip services on Stanhope's own podcast anymore.

The year has certainly not gotten off to the start I'd have liked and I've quite a lot riding on Fausto... of course, you also picked him up nearly everywhere where I'm already trailing you. Just get this feeling he's not actually going anywhere anytime soon.

FFS, Mr. Diamond Tether Yo-yo

You appear to be the man, on the site, to beat this year @HDS

Congratulations to @HDS on also having him seemingly across the board on the DSCDP site. The man to beat there, this year, I fear.

String on the yo-yo finally snapped

Mr. Yo-yo

I read somewhere that Prince Philip (Duke of Edinburgh) has been unwell

Banco del Mutuo Soccorso singer Francesco Di Giacomo killed in a traffic collision on this day 7 years ago, aged 66. Voice was underrated and underutilized.

Is he? Haven't read anything about that today

Nothing to add... just saw that there were about 1000 posts in the thread over the last few hours and felt left out

Back to the precipice. Will be improving in a few days. Then... back to the edge. Then improving....... Seems to be stuck in an endless loop

Yes, like the Davies and Menem deaths, this one won't change much.

April 5

Tend to agree. His impact is quite overblown. At the end of the day, liberals and conservatives are just authoritarian assholes screaming over which whip to use on everyone, anyway.

He certainly had me fooled. Every time I've checked up on him over the last couple years he's always been so upbeat and optimistic. Didn't see that he stepped down... guess I'd been lulled to sleep.

"Deeply sedated again" Seems to wander up to the precipice only to stumble back then wander up again every few days.

Ditto on Lemieux and Brooks. Would add Bill Murray, Ian Anderson, Robert Fripp, Dave Cousins, Lee Trevino, Norm Macdonald, Ron Paul. Charlie Daniels and Billy Joe Shaver were favorites of mine so this past year wasn't great. The reason I finally started death-pooling, actually, was Arnold Palmer's death. After he passed I assessed that there was no celebrity living whose death would hurt me more so I felt safe playing. I could never ever bring myself to pick Bill Murray under any circumstances, though.
