looking at my list of names. How the hell is Artie Lange still alive?

Rapper Mac Miller... Drug overdose at 26 years old.

Who had Bill Daily, of "I Dream of Jeannie" and "Newhart" renown? He had just turned 91.

Okay ... enough, all of you. Let’s refrain from the overly political innuendos in this thread. This is a thread to follow a ‘game’ we play and to acknowledge death. That’s it. Make your political comments in the threads provided below.

4 of us had the former President for 6 points apiece.

Bill Fralic passed away at 56. Former #2 overall pick, 4x Pro Bowl, 2x All-Pro (and legit HOF) NFL lineman who was one of the nicest people I've ever had the chance to meet.

 

Cancer sucks.

Penny Marshall dead at 75

 

Damn.

Should have included Vader on my list.
