[YoungWillz 21,251]

Ok, so two teams already entered for 2017 had Craig Sager.

 

I've moved your first sub into the main team, and all your subs have moved up one. Feel free to nominate a new sub to take the bottom place. (Ooh, I haven't heard that in years, naughty!)

[YoungWillz 21,251]

Thanks CC, entry added to the Masterlist. Good luck.

[YoungWillz 21,251]

*sigh* ok so three teams had Piers Sellers for next year and the Masterlist has been amended.

 

I'm afraid this means that JiroemonKimura now has a list of 24 names and no subs. If you would like to let me know who you are adding to make a list of 25 names, that would be cool.

[YoungWillz 21,251]

2 more entries received today with thanks for the long game. Nothing better to do with your Christmas day? He he.

 

That brings the total so far to 10 entries with some popular picks amongst them. msc has promised me a list too.

 

Still hoping for more before the cut off date...yes I'm looking at you gcreptile, MPFC, Morbidkid, Sir Creep, Toast, Book etc etc.

 

Also if you haven't entered before, do try a team. What's the worst that could happen?

[Cat O'Falk 3,290]

My can of Dr Pepper could turn into a can of Irn Bru.

Cheers, I'll add to the Masterlist.

 

Raided your list of people called Peter I see....

[The Dead Cow 620]

For Pete's sake, I just couldn't stop myself.

Unknown Man is down to 24 names and is out of subs. Please let me have a new name for your team please.

 

Is this why nobody is submitting more teams?

[msc 18,558]

I drafted my team on Christmas eve and was going to send you it around now. Three of them have died since! I'll send it in closer to the deadline.

[YoungWillz 21,251]

Shaun Of The Dead was the only person to pick Richard Adams, so that warrens him some more points.
