Thomas Broome had served as a judge in the Mississippi youth court system for over 20 years. You try thinking of something funny to say about that. Banana gets the unique hit and opens up significant blue water between them and wannamaker.

First Derek McNamara and now him, second month in a row when one of my subs dies

(to the tune of "Sweetest Taboo") Sarath Babu. Yep, the actor who bestrode both the worlds of Kollywood and Tollywood, is dead again and this time his relatives seem to agree with news reports. Every team but DDT selected the sepsis-riddled funster this time out, and as such the results haven't changed significantly.

Eh, the comeback starts here? 

[Grim Up North 3,725]

This round is a bloodbath.

 

With Rolf Harris death we've dispatched 11 of the 44 picks - 25% hit rate with over a week to go.

Unfortunately DDT was one of the two that had him

Can you tell what it is yet? Apparently a T-cell count of 0. Stylophone guru, didgeridoo impresario, Queen sketcher and serial child rapist Rolf Harris is now as stiff as a wobbleboard, with this animal not even making it to the hospital for his final days and instead dying at home. It's a DL Cup points bonanza club, and DDT and wannmaker can join today! (what? yay!)

That’s FOUR of my team from last month.  Just had to steal my team and run with it.

[gcreptile 10,966]

Rolf Harris, a GCREPTILE DISCOVERY, you heard it here, FIRST! Can't believe I forgot to pick him the fourth time in a row.

Probably not good enough to win a match this round.

You don’t want to be going round saying you discovered Rolf Harris - that could get you in bother!

You were his champion!  
I hate when this kinda thing happens, I feel your pain.

Looks like Eric F James, the local historian died a couple of days ago, but only an indirect facebook comment mentions it:

Is Beverly Shade the wrestling woman by any chance?

Yes, that's her.

[deadsox 894]

Congratulations gcreptile and best of luck going forward.  My only regret is that I didn't give you a tougher match.,

[gcreptile 10,966]

Thank you deadsox, it was an honor!

 

 

Have to admit, the next month is giving me trouble. I was away from home for half of May, tried to make up for it in recent days. But there aren't THAT many names around, it seems.

[Spade_Cooley 9,515]

As Bone Thugs-N-Harmony nearly sang, oh it's the end of the month. Teams to the usual.

[Grim Up North 3,725]

Congratulations aob - your squad was just hungrier for success than mine

You're welcome. Yes, as you previously quipped, you had a 'Crum' but I topped that with a hunger striker. 

[wannamaker 1,407]

Congrats Banana, you had a great team & both of us could've had a higher score if we got those QO's, I'll be supporting you in the upcoming rounds.

[An Fear Beag 1,535]

Congratulations @DevonDeathTripon an excellent and well-deserved victory - a proper squonking! Best of luck in the semi-final

 

I just couldn't seem to get my mojo going in this years cup - 4 hits over 3 matches is a poor return and only the luck of the draw got me as far as I did. 

[Spade_Cooley 9,515]

New round line-ups coming a bit later on today, I had an ill-advised kebab at 10:30pm and spent most of the night throwing up as a result.

Is there any other type?

[Captain Hemlock 740]

But did you vomit into the actual Deathlist Cup? Lol

Apologies for the delay.
