CaptainChorizo 1,977 Posted July 23, 2014 Pat Bowlen ,70 Majority Owner of the Denver Broncos gave up control of the team early Wed morning because he is battling Alzheimers, he also gave up control this afternoon as well. Probably not a 2015 death risk but one to keep a note of in a few years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainChorizo 1,977 Posted August 20, 2014 Tim Shaw He was a linebacker in the NFL btwn 2007-2013 has revealed he has ALS. Unlikely to score any DDP points when he passes but for something like Deathrace or an American Deathpool seems a good bet down the line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Sir creep Posted December 26, 2014 If Bart Starr isn't on your 2015 list quit playing Death Pool. I also have Jim Kelly prolly a year too soon on my 2015 list of 20, and another lock is VP of Cleveland Browns Bryan Weidmeier who is overdue already on his cancer diagnosis and average survival time, by 6 months & counting. He's as good as dead. Sir Creep Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Bart Starr is said to be making a recovery.Whether that is just optimistic thinking from his family or indeed true I guess time will tell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RIP Wee Jum 1,559 Posted December 27, 2014 Jim Kelly has beat cancer. What about Don Shula and Bud Grant? "Perfect Don" is going nowhere for a few years yet. In 3 or 4 years when Miami do another perfect season, he will go the day after the Super Bowl. #imustbedreaming Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Sir Creep Posted December 27, 2014 Jim Kelly is so busy beating cancer from chewing tobacco that he will forget to be around for New Years 2017. 2016 probably, as I stated. Should he make 2016 maybe he can visit the 2014 grave of Tony Gwynn who similarly beat cancer from chewing tobacco. Feel free to post a link of a doctor saying JK has beat cancer (hopefully it'll be the same doc that told him that the first time). Have you seen his photo recently? I'm not on that side if the Pond. I'm here to discuss the topic, which doesn't include whether your list can obtain an obit; only what a NFL players are ready to leave this mortal coil. Bart Starr making recovery oh for Christ sake.

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 24, 2015 JIm Kelly claims ONCE AGAIN (a-hem) to be totally free of cancer! Children dancing and butterflies mating.You believe what you want to Mr. Kelly. As stated in December, you'll never see 2017. You are A-1 DP 2016 material. My DP teams are constructed with the adage 'three strikes you're out' when cancer comes a-callin.
