Death Slam Form Guide #26

 

Sumner Redstone

 

20151221__USSumnerRedstoneHealthFight~1.

 

The brash Viacom honcho, 93 before the Death Slam commences, has led a checkered life including surviving a hotel blaze before starting his media empire. Though he's often boasted that he'll live forever, the past year has been marked by family squabbling over his fortunes while the doddery, feeding-tube-bound Sumner keeps grunting for more steak. With the insane riches, the unnatural hair tinge, and the disparaging comments about exes, he could also be regarded as a sneak peek of what Donald Trump will resemble in 20 years time.

Reet gang

 

Work is insanely busy at the moment but I guarantee I'll be back in action hereabouts on 31 May to compile a masterlist. 9-00 BST that day entries open. Hopefully the bandwidth will take the onslaught. Basically, first come first served until 20 people have bagged one unique pick each and battle commences in the first seconds of June - BST

 

See yers then

 

Does this mean you won't have time to enter SHBDP? :-(

 

 

 

Nope, but the thought of running that in the unlikely event I win wasn't grabbing me. So might give it a swerve until I see how the land lies after the first run through

Mary - are you allowed to post a reserve in case someone gets in first with your pick?

Nope, if you were it'd be in the rules. It's done in real time so I'm expecting a brief posting frenzy (apologies to the mods if it's more than the site can handle). If you posted two or three names there'd be outright confusion and cries of foul by someone who's reserve beat someone else's legit pick of the same toppler.

 

Post one, or one at a time if your pick gets posted fractionally ahead of your call.

If it's going to be as annoying as that I might not bother!

Only eight entrants in the opening eight minutes - c'mon people, twelve picks remaining and not a sniff of Billy Graham or Zsa Zsa as I write these words

Yes, that one. (Unless another one goes first, in which case, that one :D ).
