William Leuchtenburg QO: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-14339351/William-E-Leuchtenburg-eminent-presidential-historian-Ken-Burns-consultant-dies-102.html

 

A hit for me in my 1922 list.

Ah FFS, I'm the only person to pick Urfan Sharif (which I never expected), problem being I've pissed on my own chips by having him in the main team and the Kiddyfiddler Harriers theme team as well, and thereby spaffed any hope of a unitque pick bonus!

It looks like Pat Leahy and Patrick Leahy are the same person. Both are former Vermont senators who love Batman and neither is the New York Jets placekicker from the late 1970’s early 1980’s.

Just noticed Giorgio Armani isn't picked. Must be the first time in years DL has a name that isn't a DDP pick. 

When was the last time this happened, Vincent O’Brien in 2009? Who ended up being LOTM for the DDP anyways…

Five drop 40 hits already! And I've three unique picks - I thought someone else would have picked a couple of those.

WOW

 

Well done.

[Gooseberry Crumble 5,496]

Excellent work very well done team! Your hard work and passion is appreciated and admirable

 

Earlier on this thread  i some weeks ago someone pointed out that one of my Gooseberry Crumble picks   Tom Beauvois died off radar so should now be replaced with my sub Gennifer Flowers alleged mistress of Bill Clinton. You may have missed the post but no problem easily sorted.

 

Im delighted I got 59 unique picks in one sense but in another frustrated I missed the clean sweep of 60 by one! Maybe next year!

Consider us properly launched now. There's no 2025 List of the Lost or Theme Team League yet, but front page is updated, 2024 is archived, we're back in business.

[Toast 16,388]

Super work, chaps.  Thank you.

 

OMG I just looked and I'm in the lead !!!!!   Don't worry, it won't last.

[Captain Hemlock 804]

You missed Jules Feiffer, a hit for 3 teams including mine.

I did e-mail yesterday to change my joker from Isabel Veloso to Georg Koch, but I see it was automatically changed to Eddie Annand, whom I do not choose as my joker. I appreciate Isabel Veloso was DQed and my first sub was entered, but I would still like the ability to choose my own joker and not have it decided for me. Before the site goes live, I would kindly ask Georg Koch be designated as my joker. Thanks.

Thank you for making the change for me.

Has anyone seen a QO for baseballer Tommy Brown?

[Death Warmed Over 16]

I happened to notice that the team A Trophy for Atrophy is listed twice in DDP.
