Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 1, 2019 Awww - I see Boudilicious DID use Romero as Joker. I should be home in 2 days, and by God if I can get his autograph I will and post my ACTUAL photo getting it. Not often you get a DL Cup Finals JOKER in a hospice relatively close to where you live! SC 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boudicca 702 Posted July 1, 2019 Am I actually here? In final? Omigod. I'm going to be crushed. Yy SC please do go visit neighbour in Lafayette hospice. "How are ya really?" "Team Creep thinking of you a lot" Wear your DL t shirt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TQR 14,398 Posted July 1, 2019 Ooh it's a strong final. Very strong. Fucked if I know more than 5 of the names so it must be good. Best of luck! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 2, 2019 Says Romero resting at his home and brother by his side. I did a phone and whatever search of course cane up empty. If someone gets me Randy Romero’s address in Lafayette I will get his autograph — no, a VIDEO ‘good luck Bou on DL Cup’ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted July 2, 2019 Aye that’s worth cross-posting! SirC —————— What do you do when you’re celeb’s JustGiving page is frozen a few month’s back without explanation? What do you do when you can fine no update whatsoever using Google or otherwise? What do you do when you’re not certain if your celeb is dead or alive? Well, you write his step-daughter, of course! (Herself a Kiwi recording artist presently on tour) “Hollie: I'm a fan of your father's and have been having a difficult time getting any update since February. I do hope he has received the treatment he was seeking. I was only concerned because the JustGiving page was closed mid Feb with no update, and none of his daughters have posted anything. So -- thanks in advance for anything you can share about Mr. Steve McDonald.” “Hi! Thanks for the message. Steve has been one of the lucky ones and has had a miraculous (like actually) recovery. He was put into a trial in Christchurch which has gone very well. He will stay on it till the end of year at least but the immune therapy has eradicated all of his tumors & he’s back to his normal self for now. So fingers crossed but it’s looking good at this point. Appreciate you care and thoughts.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr_T 254 Posted July 2, 2019 A very worthy final. It seems that only deadpooling and equestrian are the only pursuits where males and females compete on equal footing (even bridge has separate events for women). Good luck to both of you, I'll watch on with interest. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clorox Bleachman 2,435 Posted July 2, 2019 Echoing the wise words of Quim, I put my best foot forward for 5 months (5 months!) before inevitably cunting it at the penultimate step. Bou so graciously and swiftly assisted the takedown. I would also like to thank you for sparing me the embarrassment of a 48-0 squonking in the final. Go get 'em! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana 859 Posted July 3, 2019 Seems as though Jared Lorenzen has passed. Just waiting on obit for Spade. Edit - https://www.nj.com/giants/2019/07/ex-giants-qb-jared-lorenzen-dies-after-battling-myriad-of-health-issues.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,530 Posted July 3, 2019 Interesting character. Kind of a Fatty Foulkes of the NFL. Moved to arena football as a coach, decided he had enough ability left to still play, came out of retirement while weighing around 380 lbs, won a trophy and then became league comissioner all in the space of about 14 months. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
