Predictor 1,018 Posted December 28, 2016 Mamie Van Doren Mamie Van Doren posted the following picture two hours ago on her Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/mamie.vandoren If that's not a clear message to death poolers worldwide as we approach the starting line(s), then I don't know what is. What's awesome about Mamie, besides having Swedish ancestry on her father's side, is that she could easily pass for someone in her 50s. On her website, she posted a nude picture of herself from a little over a year ago (November 2015). Won't post the actual picture here, but here is the link to her site: http://www.mamievandoren.com/ Her second husband, bandleader Ray Anthony, is also unusually active (for his age) on social media. https://www.facebook.com/rayanthonyband These two FB-pages could come in handy in the near/far future should they ever reveal any health issues. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted December 28, 2016 We should have an 'Overrated' thread aka who should NOT be considered anytime soon. Are we now convinced Keith Farnham is yet another criminal claiming a terminal illness and exaggerating hyperbole that is his medical records in a cry for pre-sentencing sympathy? How's that '3 months to live' your lawyer talked about in March, Keith? I'm will to bet he serves his full 50% of that 8 year sentence and gets released in 2020, and goes and mates with Lynne Stewart. Anyway--who's still buying in on Farnham for 2017 I want a show of hands. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SC I haven't picked him in any pools for next year.Lynne Stewart I have in some though.Mainly because she has been ill for a long time now and has a chance of making the Drop 40.
