Clorox Bleachman 2,407 Posted January 6 9 minutes ago, Handrejka said: Fun team. I will be annoyed if Purple Aki dies this year as I left him off my Scouse/Merseysider team. He's never been on DDP. I can see why, as he's a complicated figure, but he's getting up there in years. I had an aunt who was similarly... complicated... who was found behind the door of her flat at around that age. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't see him making 65 to be honest. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's named after David Gest's aged-like-milk tour. For the benefit of those of us who have no idea what "David Gest's aged-like-milk tour" means, can you elaborate?

Thanks David Gest planned a tour called 'David Gest Is Not Dead...But Alive With Soul'. He died before it started. Phil Collins did a tour the same year called 'Not Dead Yet'. He's a brave, brave man. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Russ 7,220 Posted January 8 I think there’s a chance that my team might be leading right now in the DDP with Draper joker and Beckenbauer and I wasn’t even trying lmao 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,964 Posted January 9 Dirty secret: India is not really covered by Yahoo. So picking an Indian here is very risky. Oommen Chandy and Jayanta Mahapatra were two QO misses last year. Edit: Actually, Chandy was unpicked. He didn't get the QOs for the Death By Numbers, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was just trawling obits for the man - he's hit the woefully low standards of Deathrace q/o and helped one team cash in a joker, seen nowt of DDP worthiness yet. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
