    Reportedly dead: https://www.instagram.com/p/BD8Zy-3S4zi/ Usual riders, but if you can't believe Rihanna's stylist, who can you believe? Huge omission from my reality show DDP team I blanked on when creating 2016 squads. Her being on a Bravo show meant Daily Mail would copy and paste an Obit from somewhere else if she died.

    I hadn't heard about Travis being on the mend I just assumed based on the Sam Simonesque looking photos of him on twitter that he was dead man walking.

    Derby Dead Pool 2016

    At the rate things are going it looks like the record for amount of hits in a year will be broken which would be pretty impressive with the removal of non english bbc and yahoo disqualifiers.

    Derby Dead Pool 2016

    So last time I did this - Feek died on the same day. So today it seems, that ... 90% chance to die in 2016 - Ford 75% chance to die in 2016 - Marks, Granger, Kohl 50% chance to die in 2016 - Adamowicz, Travis, James, Carter, Gabor 25% chance to die in 2016 - Farnham, Westhuizen, Ali 5% chance to die in 2016 - Cruyff, Romero, Fawkes My math says that I will get more hits this year. Four days later. Ford is dead. Soon I shall do another update. Gonna be harder this time. Now I did some heavy research. This is how it's going to be according to the information available. 1. Kate Granger 85% (according to her blog 16.03.16 - losing her battle to cancer) 2. Keith Farnham 75% (pulmonary fibrosis, bladder cancer and hepatitis C - should be dead already) 3. Howard Marks 70% (inoperable bowel cancer which has spread to his liver and lungs since 2014/15 winter) 4. Tony Adamowicz 65% (stage 4 brain cancer - should be dead in less than two years) 5. Muhammad Ali 60% (32 years with Parkinson's disease - getting worse every year) 6. Clive James 55% (leukemia - embarraced to be alive since he should be dead already) 7. Kris Travis 50% (had stomach cancer, got into remission, cancer returned, life or death TBA) 8. Helen Fawkes 45% (won three times against ovarian cancer, according to her blog 22.03.16 - the cancer has returned) 9. Randy Romero 40% (hepatitis C, liver and kidneys are failing - according to doctors he might not see next year if he doesn't some new organ transplant) 10. Joost van der Westhuizen 35% (has MND - in 2011 was giver 2-5 years to live, only 10% with the illness can live up to 10 years) 11. Zsa Zsa Gabor 30% (according to statistics - people who are aged 99 have 70% chance to see their next birthday, otherways she has NO health issues at all)12. Helmut Kohl 25% (health has been failing during the last 10 years, but now seems stable) 13. Jimmy Carter 20% (had cancer that had spread to brain and liver but declares himself cancer free, however he is old) 14. Johan Cruyff 15% (fighting with lung cancer and has a feeling that he is 2-0 up in the first half of a match that has not finished yet) According to my math I should get six more hits which should give me a score of 46 points. If I add that to my current 58 points in DDP, I get 104 points. That should hive me a chance of 33% to win this years DDP. What to do you guys think? I would be shocked if 104 points was good enough to win this year. That said if more then 6 people from that list died I would not surprised.I would say Farnham and Romero would be YUGE for your chances and might be your difference maker picks. A Granger or Marks hit for example would just mean keeping up with a lot of top teams who also have them.

    Not sure a Canadian MP would get any kind of Obits outside of his home country.

    Rob Ford

    Rob Ford So it has been going around there is a video of Ford(Mayor of Toronto) smoking crack. He held a press conference stating ""I do not use crack cocaine,"Nor am I an addict of crack cocaine" If this turns out to be true he seems like he would be a good candidate for 2014 as the only obese crackhead the world.

    Each Year's Most Significant Death.

    You're having a laugh, aren't you. Did you forget Kim Kardashian? From your selection, only Queen Elizabeth II would eclipse Mr Bowie. I don't even know who you mean by "Janet". The Kardashians are American Royalty. If anything happened to Kim,Kris,Kourtney,Khloe,Kylie or Rob the nation would go into weeks of morning not seen since JFK died.

    Biggest 'miss(es)' by the DL Committee 2016

    I'd say Davies is their only real major miss this year. Feek is on the iffy side as far as list worthy and Harper Lee didn't have any known illnesses when she died.
