I suppose we need to put an addendum on this... If news comes out that he is dead and has been dead for some time, it will only count if they put his time of death after the kickoff of the Super Bowl... Just wanna clear this up, cause I'm not convinced that he's not already dead and we just don't know it yet....nycparrothead wrote:You sure can!comemonday wrote:Can I pick Osama Bin Laden?

And what happens if one of our picks dies between Tuesday and Sunday-are we disqualified?

Disqualified, no... But you don't win either.. You'll need to pick someone else... We're just trying to eliminate the problem of, "What if someone dies today?" Who would be in, who wouldn't.. The pay out would only be like 10 bucks and it would s***.. So we needed to come up with an official start time...ejr wrote:And what happens if one of our picks dies between Tuesday and Sunday-are we disqualified?

I never like to argue with the ref, but Max isn't a nobody.
Maximillian Adolph Otto Siegfried Schmeling (born September 28, 1905) is a German former boxer whose two Heavyweight championship fights with Joe Louis transcended boxing and became worldwide social events which will forever be linked to the rivalry between Americans and Germans before World War II.

Would his passing make the 6PM national news? Dunno
(Who could they interview for the story? the dude's 100!)
Would I recognize his name if it did? Hell yeah

I have heard of Max Schmeling, he was just on ESPN talking about boxing and how it has developed over time. If he died it would make the news.bravedave wrote:I never like to argue with the ref, but Max isn't a nobody.

The contest has just lost it's entertainment and appeal to me. I have no problem with it, I just don't feel participating anymore.
