Aw come on, every time someone dead appears it's 'oh, there's a thread for that...' or '...as whatsit deadboard posted centuries ago'. Sometimes you just can't win.

Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted February 11, 2015 I bitched about Tark the Shark not being on DeathList and was told he prolly won't obit on BBC. Guess we are about to find out. SC Are you over that yet? He may well get a notice on the BBC website but who cares. We don't know your "legendary" sports coaches and for the most part we don't care (I've heard a few of their names dropped in American movies or mentioned by commentators during the awesome late 90s/early 2000s broadcasts of WWF, but I wouldn't suggest them). Even people like Dan Marino or John Madden would be considered "outsider choices". This is a British site. Sure the internet "brings us all together" a bit more than it used to (gross) but don't get too excited just because some Brits stay up to watch the Super Bowl nowadays. It's just a passing phase (hopefully) because they enjoy the "novelty" of staying up to 3AM to watch Americans maim each other (bit like the old days of WWF I mentioned, except less tasteful, and with suppression of house-waking yawns instead of suppression of house-waking cheers/excitement), and because they need any distraction they can get from their usual worship of unmotivated squillionaire soccer players. If you had an American Deathlist I wouldn't ask you to put legendary soccer coaches Sam Allardyce or Alan Pardew on it would I? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you had an American Deathlist I wouldn't ask you to put legendary soccer coaches Sam Allardyce or Alan Pardew on it would I? I've never understood the obsession with college sports coaches here in the U.S. or the devotion that people have towards a college that they went to 20-30 years or so ago. I personally can't imagine walking around with a sweatshirt that says "Westminster Technical College" on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rockhopper penguin 2,265 Posted February 12, 2015 How about an alive of 2015 thread? Could this be a repeat of 1991 with all surviving? Or will the first hit be after 23 March as in 1992? Am I getting bored? Answers on a post(card) please. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted February 12, 2015 dunno but if there isn't a hit by midnight tonight it wil be the latest first hit since 2007 which was march 7. That's the only time in the last decade the first hit was after feb 12 in fact.
