2012 dead pool draft signup and discussion thread

[Cobain's Ghost]

anybody up for drafting to 10, then filling out rosters to 12-15 stiffs? more action, more scoring?

[Erik]

Given how slow some have been and that the contest isn't active until the last pick is made, I don't think doing more than 10 is a good idea.

[Erik]

I'm going to be unavailable for much of the afternoon, so here's a status update.

The last on-the-clock pick was davidgrey's 8th rounder at 10:43 AM Eastern.

Bryanbutler timed out at 12:43 PM Eastern and can post his 8th round pick at any time.

TyWebb is on the clock until 4:43 PM Eastern for his 8th and 9th round picks.

Toni Braxton?

This is normally a question for wikipedia: Why?

Nevermind: http://www.eurweb.com/2012/01/toni-b...-hospitalized/

I've been waiting 9 years for the episode of House when it would actually be Lupus ... it's never lupus ... if I were Toni Braxton I'd get a second opinion.

[Erik]

Before MJ's addiction killed him, he had a severe case of lupus and there were rumors that THAT was going to kill him.

[Erik]

Please don't forget to update your rosters in the roster thread.

[Erik]

DQ has timed out. Revo is up.

[Don Quixote]

Nice pick with The Juice, revo. I completely forgot about him, which in itself may be good. I hope he's enjoying doing hard time.

[Erik]

You are free to select a Bronco, Charger or Chief legend with your last pick!

[Erik]

Sarah Burke has died, which voids TyWebb's 6th round pick. He may select a replacement at any time.

Looks like Etta James has also kicked the bucket. Looks like El Diablo gets a repick as well.

And thus completes my 2012 Rotojunkie Dead Pool Draft. All on my roster appeared (wrestled or performed) at one or more Wrestlemania events. I figured after winning two of the last three dead pools here I would add a theme for an added degree of difficulty. ;-)

[Erik]

I noticed there were an unusually high number of wrestlers this year, now we know why.

I got most of who I wanted. Bobby "The Brain" Heenan (BFly), "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff (TyWebb) and "Superstar" Billy Graham (Revo) were all on my wish list but were taken before I could snag them.
