^^^me submitting my DDP team this year

I found the ubersecret DDP Twitter account. What do I win?

And there's your UK obit for Stynes.

So yep, Jim Stynes is the first of the inverse applicable to drop this year. Most of us had steered well clear of him, but two optimists shoved him in their squad and get the ignominy of being the only points scorers at this time of the year. The Unknown Man -5 Sympathy for the Devil -9 Everything else is still on 0.

Nope, so in a controversial decision I'm just going to bump his remaining players up one and have him start with a field of 24. Harsh but fair.

His death's a trending topic in the UK plus he's getting RIP tweets from guys like Shane Warne and Lance Armstrong. He'll get a Daily Mail Online obit within two hours. If he does, 'ary Kiri and The Living End go joint top of the DDP.

No. Etta James was the DL obit writer. Her sad passing has left the committee at a loss, but worry not - auditions will soon take place to find a replacement... Clive Dunn's resume looks pretty impressive.

The father of Kilmarnock player Liam Kelly drops dead of a heart attack while watching his son win the Scottish League Cup. Presumably in shock at a non-Old Firm team winning a trophy,

For those of you who weren't watching the match, Fabrice Muamba just collapsed during the Bolton/Spurs game and the BBC report he is "fighting for his life".

Good timing, kiddo.

Doobie Brother Michael Hossack's long train is no longer runnin'.

A nine-month holdout until he's eligible for points on the board is a big ask, though. Hopefully those "Insania" royalties can hire the best medical professionals money can buy.

Some further information about his court case http://www.wiltshire..._on_death_bid_/ He's showing no signs of going away. Well, I suppose technically he is, but you know what I mean.

Jedward's granddad.

Our boys get a shout out in the national media

Yeah, but it briefly got people's hopes up, and that's the important thing.

RIP
