Dead Pool 2017

[Nosmo King]

I don't get y'all's obsession with Betty White every year. I tole you and tole you, she's never going away. Never. She's like the TV version of Keith Richard.

I'm betting against all y'all that take Betty White or Jimmy Carter. Not their time.
Nosmo King --- I'll bet against Dick vanDyke too. He's too spry.

However I'd like to introduce y'all to Ginger Baker.

Dick VanDyke is my Pope John Paul II. It looks like a lead pipe cinch on paper...

I have to say, Jimmy Snuka is about the biggest lock on my list. Last I heard he has like 6 months left to live. He is dealing with late stages of Alzheimer disease and cancer.

Is there a rule against picking people with diseases?

[strollingbones]

now is it still...their age from 100 is your score?

 

[Lewdog]

now is it still...their age from 100 is your score?

Wait, I didn't know that rule, otherwise I wouldn't have picked someone that is 100 years old. If that is the rule, then Kirk Douglas would be worth zero points.

 

[strollingbones]

may not be the rule now.....i found my list from 2016

search 'dead pool 2' i got ali and other than that....i suck at this

 

[strollingbones]

Carol Channing, that's interesting.

>> In her memoir Just Lucky I Guess (2002), Channing revealed that in 1937, when she was a 16-year-old about to head off to Bennington College, her mother told her that her father's birth certificate had marked him as "colored," as his mother had been black. It was an unexpected revelation for Channing, and she didn't make the information public for decades (a decision that allowed her to avoid the discriminatory treatment African Americans faced at the time).

However, Channing didn't completely forget about her heritage, which she credits with giving her the impressive vocal range and agility that helped her succeed as a performer. In a 2002 interview with Larry King, she declared, "I got the greatest genes in show business." << --- Biography.com

She'll be 96 in a month.

Just noticed that Phyllis Coates, the original TV Lois Lane, turns 90 on January 17, 2017.

I'd like to add her to my list.
