We know Toby Keith has advanced cancer. I'm still wondering about that Randy Jackson photo where he's skinny and needed help walking. I know some thought he'd be a goner this year, but he still seems to be holding on. I hope Toby survives, but it's obvious the treatments are taking a toll on him.

YoungWillz 21,054 Posted February 6 See, I avoided him having been well and truly booted in the arse by the Randy Jackson nonsense last year. Literally my last drop from my entire team including subs. Didn't want the points anyway lol. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Book 3,557 Posted February 6 Wow, my fifth DDP hit so far this year - and none of them were Jimmy Carter... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrWonderful 481 Posted February 6 He's the sixth hit for me. Glad his suffering is over now, given that he truly looked very sick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He wasn’t beloved by me, just another stupid fucking American peddling stupid fucking modern country music. At least that old warmongering bitch Vera Lynn had a touch of style. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

South Park notably took the piss out of country stars that capitalise on peoples' emotions with opportunistic patriotic songs. Their target was Alan Jackson though. You could probably throw Lee Greenwood into the same category too. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus of Odstock 2,200 Posted February 6 So even though his fricking funeral got daily mail coverage, because they didn't put his name on the report, Kieran Cavanagh - for now - has no QO. So I was tantalisingly close to taking the lead of the DDP for the first time in 14 years. I knew someone would come along who I didn't pick to relegate me back to mid table obscurity. I thought he would last longer in truth. Ah well. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Salmon Mousse 473 Posted February 6 I'm genuinely surprised he went this year. Willie Nelson is going to outlive everyone he's ever collaborated with, no matter how much younger they are, I guess. Look out, Jessica Simpson. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Impends 7,979 Posted February 6 A third hit for me, and the type of name I might have eschewed on a more serious team. Anywho, I'm not usually one for proclaiming ignorance (so if I never heard of a G8 world leader my lips are sealed), but while I long knew his name I have no recollection of hearing a song by him and have no desire to remedy it.

Perhaps 1,423 Posted February 6 Frustratingly demoted from my main DDP team due to murmurs on here that he might not be as close to death as it seemed at the time. Fuck the likes of James Whale, Linda Nolan & co for this level of distrust I have for cancer patients. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fuck the likes of James Whale, Linda Nolan & co for this level of distrust I have for cancer patients. Remember late year murmurs often come from two sources. 1. People trying to psyche out DDP opponents. Also known as The Spade Cooley. 2. People who aren't good at deadpools. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
