Rules:
10 famous people (sports or otherwise)
Winner determined by most # of cadavers picked.

Post your picks in this thread. Rank your list from 10 to 1 in confidence points (highest confidence in death is 10).
Tiebreakers are youngest total ages of all dead celebs, then total confidence points, then youngest overall pick, then youngest celeb with the highest confidence points.
Winner gets a prize TBD (could just be a bunch of winner ratings).

Deadline for picks is 11:59PM EASTERN on 12/31/23.

If someone you pick hits room temperature before the end of the year, you can replace that person, but you only receive credit for deaths in 2024.

I request that these come in the following format: Name, Confidence Points (makes it easier for me to put it into Excel, and it's already hard enough to keep track of with you halfwits that can't spell Bob Dole's name correctly). Please see example below:

Bob Barker, 10
Henry Kissinger, 9
Ozzy Osbourne, 8
Bud Grant, 7
Jimmy Carter, 6
Ted Simmons, 5
Artie Lange, 4
Keith Richards, 3
Shannen Doherty, 2
Takashi-69, 1

Tagging our 2023 participants.


How are you managing this? Excel spreadsheet?
 
My favorite Donald Sutherland scene was when he had to play a general in The Dirty Dozen.


Kelly's Heros. Don't send no negative vibes.

He played a great hippy in his roles.

Doherty? I’m on the board!

These things really do happen in 3’s.
