Paul Bearer 6,102 Posted October 29, 2006 wasnt Red Abreach on the deathlist one year? You might be thinking of Red Adair at number 34 on this list Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MyBrainHurts2 4 Posted October 29, 2006 Auerbach was #23 on the 1994 Deathlist and #39 on the 1996 Deathlist. If some of you haven't heard of the old man, it's no big deal...it's not like I can name any manager from Man U or Arsenal, or any FC for that matter.

Octopus of Odstock 2,197 Posted October 29, 2006 Auerbach was #23 on the 1994 Deathlist and #39 on the 1996 Deathlist. If some of you haven't heard of the old man, it's no big deal...it's not like I can name any manager from Man U or Arsenal, or any FC for that matter. I didn't even know what sport he was in. I thought NBA stood for baseball, until I read the obit on BBC. Seeing how the Guardian wanks itself silly with the deaths of US sporting figures (but not UK, strangely.. ) maybe it is time for me to shake off my ignorance of all things American Sport & choose some worthy candidates...

Typhoid Harry 23 Posted October 29, 2006 Sad, but not in vain; he died at the right time to remind those of us in the US to set our clocks an Auerbach last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Re Americans not always given a high profile over here, if Evel Knieval makes it to January 1st we've got to get him onto the 2007 top 50. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted October 29, 2006 Could be worse Windsor, my current DP picks seem condemed to lingering on, not summat they'd all choose given the state of their health. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
