Dead Pool Revisited: I've Got Gomer Now

John Wooden would be my No. 1 pick.

 

Don't get many points for a 90-something dying, unibomber.

 

I would never play in such a game as I firmly believe in that karma thing, but if I were tossing around long shots who certainly exhibit some traits of those who have died young, Terrell Owens and John Daly might make my list.

 

I'd also put Lindsay Lohan on that list. A big of a long shot, but a hell of a payoff.

Oh, and the drummer for Spinal Tap.

 

Then give me Rick Majerus.

 

Not a bad one, uni. Majerus could explode at any moment.

 

Higher points for younger folks is just one option.

Ours has the competitor pick an old person, a middle-aged person and a young person.

 

It would be a major tempting of the karma gods, but I would probably pick a NASCAR driver in a dead pool. Almost always under 40....

 

Everybody in the pool is at least 70 years old. That way, I'm only going to hell for a short period.
