Celebrity Death Pool - Round 11

[Hark_The_Sound_2010]

Ok so in the interest of keeping picks visible, and alerting the ones next up that it's their turn I've started this draft thread. I'll update the list below periodically throughout the draft. I'll try to keep it as up to date as possible, but at least check to see that you're not duplicating with the couple picks before you if I haven't updated recently.

Post your pick here when you make it. I'll be changing the thread title periodically to show who is on the clock (at least as of the last time I saw it).

Here's the link to the other thread for rules and specifics if needed: https://northcarolina.forums.rivals.com/threads/ootb-celebrity-death-pool.33156/

I'm fine with it, I've been fine letting 71 be the bad guy and make the skip decision, but at this point I just wanna get this thing in the books. Anyone who misses this time around can jump in on the next round. We can put @TarHeelNation11 on the clock. And if @jcolucci or bleed want to hop in and make a pick they still can

 

[TarHeelNation11]

With the 9th (well, OK, 7th) pick in the 1st round, Checkin' Out; Cashin' Out selects....

Roger Moore

 

[gunslingerdick]

never mind

 

[coryfly]

So am I up or waiting to see if he picks?

 

[gunslingerdick]

By the way, my team name will be Mr. Lingerdick's Dead Beats.

 

[gunslingerdick]

So am I up or waiting to see if he picks?

You're picking if you're ready.

 

[coryfly]

 

[gunslingerdick]

Nice pick. Don't think I haven't looked into the world of former professional wrestlers. Those dudes are dropping like flies.

 

[gunslingerdick]

Plus, George The Animal might die from choking on a turnbuckle. So he's twice as likely. Again, good pick.

Haha. Some of the better guys to pick may be the 'roid heads but I haven't followed wrestling in so long I don't really know who they are.

 

[Raising Heel]

With the next pick in the draft, team "Can't Stop Coffin" selects:

Fidel Castro

 

[coryfly]

Castro is a good one. I assume he was on everyone's radar.

 

[TarHeelNation11]

With the next pick in the draft, team "Can't Stop Coffin" selects:

Fidel Castro

Honestly thought he was dead. Damnit.

 

[JuleZ '02 HEEL]

Y'all are on point with the team names.

Except 'slinger. Kinda lame.

 

[UNC71-00]

@UNC '92 it's your time to shine

 

[gunslingerdick]

I thought it was pretty good. Are you a gambling man? Because a "beat" is common vernacular in the gambling world. So in essence, I'm saying that while my folks will indeed eventually die, someone on another list will die first - "a bad beat". Not familiar? And then "deadbeats"?...no?...you see,...just forget it.

 

[JuleZ '02 HEEL]

Keep explaining, it's starting to get funnier.

 

[gunslingerdick]

I don't reckon my pick is coming up for a while but I'm unavailable for the next several hours. I'll try to check back in around 8:00 pm or so.

Shit this is gonna take forever to get done. I'm already losing steam.

[UNC '92]

Team Dancing on Your Grave selects Norman Lloyd.

 

[Hark_The_Sound_2010]

@coolwaterunc you're up

 

[coolwaterunc]

@coolwaterunc you're up

F my team name.

Jimmy Snuka

 

[JuleZ '02 HEEL]

So now @heelmanwilm picks two and it goes back to @coolwaterunc ?

Somebody's gonna die before you guys finish this draft.

 

[TarHeelNation11]

I don't know who half these "celebs" are. Norman Lloyd? George Steele?

 

[coolwaterunc]

George Steele?

You didn't watch WWF growing up? WTF?

 

[TarHeelNation11]

You didn't watch WWF growing up? WTF?

I know Goldberg, Rey Mysterio, DDP, Stone Cold, Dudley Bros, The Undertaker, all those guys. Never heard of this George Steele.

 

[Hark_The_Sound_2010]

So now @heelmanwilm picks two and it goes back to @coolwaterunc ?

Yes, Heelman for 2, then back to cool, and so on up the draft order now.

I don't know who half these "celebs" are. Norman Lloyd? George Steele?

I do agree on this, but everyone picked so far after a google search seems to pass the celeb test, so I'll allow it.

 

[coryfly]

You are just too young. Those guys were past my wrestling prime. I almost went Koko B Ware but The Animal was a weird dude so went with him.

 

[UNC '92]

I don't know who half these "celebs" are. Norman Lloyd? George Steele?

The great Norman Lloyd does not need to be defended from the likes of you!

 

[heelmanwilm]

Hugh hefner
Jimmy carter

 

[UNC71-00]

Hugh hefner
Jimmy carter

**** you. Those were my next 2

 

[BillyL]

I'll go with Sean Connery . .

 

[Hark_The_Sound_2010]

**** you. Those were my next 2

I can tell you at least one of them wasn't getting to you if they got past Heelman, great picks. Back on @coolwaterunc which is convenient, because I don't have change the thread title.

 

[Raising Heel]

Two James Bonds so far?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[UNC71-00]

George Lazenby.

Oh wait, it's not my pick.

 

[UNC71-00]

Dammit @coolwaterunc pick

 

[jcolucci]

Sorry fellas...in Scottsdale for a conference...no time to check board.
Have fun.
