Title: Maggie Daley
Post by: Brownie on November 24, 2011, 09:42:29 PM
I'd offer something witty, but it's Thanksgiving and I can only think about her youngest daughter who moved her wedding up to last week to accommodate her Mom.

Well that and what this does to our standings...

What it does is give TJ and his All Chicago (plus Aretha) roster (https://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=0AgiabNX4n3X0dG9kR0JHQmJ5czF4emNRMTRPWVl2SXc&hl=en&single=true&gid=5&output=html) the standings lead (https://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=0AgiabNX4n3X0dG9kR0JHQmJ5czF4emNRMTRPWVl2SXc&hl=en&single=true&gid=3&output=html).

Chuck and Butthead both score hits as well.

We're on a roll here, folks. Let's keep the death train rolling. (https://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=0AgiabNX4n3X0dG9kR0JHQmJ5czF4emNRMTRPWVl2SXc&hl=en&single=true&gid=4&output=html)

Who had Delores Hope (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/20/arts/music/dolores-hope-bob-hopes-widow-dies-at-102.html)?

And so it transpires that TJ's lead was never anything more than an illusion.

Shit, so not even Ed Sprinkle's imminent CHRISTMAS DEATH would help me win it now.

Come ON, Grim Reaper.  You can catch Don Rickles!

AND...takes the lead.

Though, I believe I was in the lead last year at this time, only to watch Huey grab it from me at the 11th hour.

My only hope for a repeat rests with the expiration of Mr. Rickles...

You both have Zsa Zsa for 5, so she would be a total wash. And Pen has a 2-point buffer against your 4-point Dick Clark pick.

You could take the outright lead with...

1 Death:

Don Rickles

2 Deaths:

Ed Sprinkle plus Sid Caesar, Dick Cheney or Bobby Hull

or

Sid Caesar and Dick Cheney

3 Deaths:

Ed Sprinkle, Dick Clark and Aretha Franklin

or

Sid Caesar and Bobby Hull plus Dick Clark or Aretha Franklin

or

Dick Cheney, Bobby Hull and Dick Clark

I think more than one death in a month--EVEN THOUGH THAT'S HOW I WON LAST YEAR--is a little too much to ask for, but I do appreciate the breakdown.
