April 6, 201610 yr I can't stand current country music, but I do enjoy the old time country music. Haggard, Conway Twitty, and Waylon Jennings IMO are the Mount Rushmore of country music.
April 6, 201610 yr I swear I had him on one of my lists one year, but he didn't make the cut this year. He was on a preliminary list... Solid performer and musician. Sad to hear.
April 6, 201610 yr I can't stand current country music, but I do enjoy the old time country music. Haggard, Conway Twitty, and Waylon Jennings IMO are the Mount Rushmore of country music. Since you only listed three I'm gonna assume George Jones or Johnny Cash are the 4th.
April 7, 201610 yr Since you only listed three I'm gonna assume George Jones or Johnny Cash are the 4th.Hank Williams might have a slot somewhere, too.
April 7, 201610 yr Hank Williams might have a slot somewhere, too.I'd put Patsy Cline above all of them.
April 7, 201610 yr Another great gone, Haggard was a true legend. Going to be sad when Willie goes, not too many left.
April 7, 201610 yr Another great gone, Haggard was a true legend. Going to be sad when Willie goes, not too many left.For those pools that count points based on age, is there any definitive info on what time of day he was born and what time of day he passed away? You never know when a contested point turns out to decide the season standings.
April 7, 201610 yr I'd put Patsy Cline above all of them.And perhaps Loretta Lynn. I know he's modern, but Garth has really done a lot within the country realm to bridge it from the 80s where few people were listening to the modern brand, which I'm not completely a fan of, where huge stadiums are sold out by country acts who aren't even topping the charts. The Chris Gaines thing even was fun for what it was.
April 11, 201610 yr Will Smith, 34, former defensive end for the New Orleans Saints. Tragic and senseless death.
April 20, 201610 yr Doris Roberts died today.Wasn't too familiar with much of her work but she was damn funny on Everybody Loves Raymond.
April 21, 201610 yr One of my all-time favorite Prince jams... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aDAFLbozCE
June 4, 201610 yr Donny Everrett died yesterday. I don't know if he is exactly a celebrity, but I had been following his career since he was a junior in high school.
June 4, 201610 yr Muhammad Ali. This one sucks big time.It seems wrong to like this post, so I'll just agree with the sentiment.
June 6, 201610 yr Author Muhammad Ali. This one sucks big time. 4 people had him on their list. Current Standings 1. luke829 (K.Turner, R. Angelil, J.Feek) - 141 pts2. biggentleben (M.Ali, J.Feek) - 86 pts3. lecroy24fan (M.Haggard, M. Crowe) - 68 pts3. Pius Jefferson (J.Feek) - 60 pts5. Willihammer (R.Ford) - 54 points6. Musk21 (M.Ali, N.Reagan) - 32 pts7. vanimal46 (M.Ali) - 26 pts7. steve - 26 pts
June 6, 201610 yr I don't do these lists.....but I came to post that if even a small number of athletes took stands like he did, this world would be a better place.
