Former World Class commentator Bill Mercer might get one via the Yahoo loophole, but other than that you're going to have to go down to 89-year-old Gene LeBell for someone who will get a trad QO.

I honestly had no idea, went with my gut. Do keep up with this @drol
This site has too many pools/threads/polls opened and then no follow up. I'm curious on how the dominoes fall!

I'll be taking requests shortly. Anybody have any requests?

I got some bad news for 35 teams! (Including myself)

Problem is, he's under investigation for being the biggest private tax cheater in US history. So it's difficult to tell how ill he really is.
Robert Brockman dead. Must have been pretty ill!

He would have counted as a miss in my pool! *If he died a few days later*

Luckily we, as noted above, have a very long time before the next round starts! Plenty of time to gather feedback
I'm interested in which show accumulates the highest # of misses. Anyone who died after the official game start will be added to the tally.

Good point! I will also need to add Talk Shows as that is a major loophole. Imagine someone says The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson for an endless amount of names. Wouldn't really be fair would it? Luckily, no one went that route or the sports shows.

Submissions closed! We ended with 27 teams in total. Thanks for the support everyone.
Please double check my list for any issues with your submission (spelling or birth date especially).
I will be keeping a running count, best I can, of any misses from the shows picked.
Best of luck! Let the game begin

Not so fast, he started the fire....doesn't mean he is in control of it anymore.
Neither Biden nor Trump will be the nominees in 2024, they don't control either of their parties.

Less than 24 hours left!
No further duplicates with 25 teams submitted so far.

22 minutes ago, time said:Hypothetically, if someone sends in a team at 5 minutes to 6 CST, which is a duplicate of one already submitted, but the original entrant is in Europe and already in bed and therefore didn't find out about it until they get up the following day, what would happen? (As the deadline has passed?)
The cut-off is for new people + entries primarily. If there are any duplicates, or issues with the shows/cast selected, that can be resolved after the deadline with no issue. As long as you submitted a team before the starting gun, fair play.
My goal is to have a firm cut-off on participants, then spend the next 24 hours making sure everything/everyone followed the rules.
In summary, you folks across the pond are fine.
Good question!

Entries close August 5th at 6 pm CST (which is Midnight GMT).
That's a little more than 48 hours from now. We are sitting at 22 entries currently.
If you want in the pool, make sure to submit via PM. No telling how long till the next one!

Oops. Too soon?
I had something similar! Beat me to it you rascal.
Let's see if her God judges her as harshly as she judged others

Vin Scully is another very good pick. Not sure it will happen in 2022, but he won't make 100.
My 2 suggestions die within a few days of each other.....

Unnatural causes is murder, suicide, accident.
That's true, I suppose I'm just being dramatic
.
Just my personal belief that this nasty business over her estate probably didn't help her health any, if not contribute to her downward spiral

She wasn’t particularly I’ll or ancient. I’d have much more likely been bitching she was ON the list.She was extremely ill. Her dying of *natural causes* is a stretch.

I'm going to be that person. IMO this is the first genuine miss this year. It was well known she was on her last legs, very easy and notable person to pick.

Fair point. I had Nichelle Nichols, replaced with Rachel Robinson.
At this point treating it as my own personal list.
