oh well

You didn't say anything about no repeats. A rule like that wouldn't be fair in a forum like this since some people see the thread before others.

In the game I used to play in, the names (100 of them) were turned in on Jan 1. Duplicates split the points.

LongtimeBravesFan · April 7th, 2008, 02:49 AM

We'll need to come to an agreement on the rule for the 2009 game. But it seems like we should get full credit for any picks this year, even if everyone picked them.

I have four people on others lists, but I didn't really pay attention to that when picking.

Score 2 more points for Grandstander. Somehow we missed this man's passing.

Even though he was but a lousy two pointer, and he was forced out of office by his own big mouth, I always loved him for this:

Quote:

At the 1974 World Food Conference in Rome, Butz made fun of Pope Paul VI's opposition to "population control" by quipping, in a mock Italian accent: "He no playa the game, he no maka the rules."

Thanks for finding that, Longtime, I guess Earl's Butz didn't make a big splash when he fell

Actually I learned of it from the web site I linked a couple of posts up.
