Well that is the number 1 spot for DL  2020 if he makes it.

Agreed, though he'll be lucky to make it that far.... (whatever lucky means in that case)

3 months might be lucky, tbh.

Gosh, this is so sad! I've never felt sadder at someone's admission of cancer than I have to his.

Personally I don’t think it’s impossible for him to see 2020 since he’s very likely going to get the best treatment possible. But yeah, I do think it’s pretty unlikely...

The tag line is WRONG!  It needs to be a statement, the respondents have to answer in the form of a question.

 

so should say “This disease kills you in a median of 3 months”.

because the response would be ‘what is PC’

 

Sort it

I mentioned this in the ideas and possibilities thread last year: 

Maybe more of an idea and possibility for 2021, but Alex Trebek may retire in 2020.

 

Well, he might retire in 2020 now.

Heh, yes, you're right. Kind of confused the question/answer thing here.

An absolute legend of television, very sad news to hear.

 

Hoping for the best for Trebek, despite the bleak prognosis.

Damn, that's one of the worst cancers you could get.
Hope he doesn't suffer and some sort of miracle can happen :angel4:

Shocked and gutted by this news. One to consider for the 2020 DeathList if he survives.

Be sure to phrase your prayers in the form of a question.
