The Pie and Bovril Dead Pool 2020


Recommended Posts

Ooft. That’s wild. Suspect there’s more of a story yet to come. First time in this game I’ve actually felt genuinely sad for someone. Brace face but deeply troubled? I dunno...
She's clearly topped herself. I expect Trolling will be blamed for it though I never understand why these people don't just avoid Social Media at these times.

Really, you can't work it out?

With 20/20 hindsight I can see it. However shocking and raw as it may be.  Predicting it before the end of last year, notwithstanding the news, seems, I dunno...

actually no, I still can’t work it out.

Previously volatile media personality, obsessed by public perception of her, reacts catastrophically to bad publicity.

She was looking at a conviction for domestic abuse which would have made her untouchable for tv networks, f**k all else going on career wise. She always seemed to be volatile but it was still a roll of the dice picking her.

Horrible that she's seen this as the only way out, but if the roles were reversed and her boyfriend had been the abuser I doubt the reaction to his death would've been as tribute-laden.

Was she no pumping a 17 year old when she was in her mid thirties? Then she'd been done for pretty much attacking her lad whilst he slept with a lamp?

The outpouring of grief and blame from figures that probably caused a lot of grief seems to be spilling out in a pretty big way. Horrible situation all round and it's the first celebrity death that's had an effect on me for a while.

Ooft that's got to be the highest scorer of the year for a single pick.

As she was second on your list, my calculation is based on her being your VC and earning you another 50% of her base points.

You also get 50 points for the solo shot plus a suicide bonus of 30.

Why are you giving him Flack? He must have guessed, rightly, that she was a possible suicide risk.

I've seen other posters pick young healthy celebrities, presumably for similar reasons.

In 2014, I was pushed into second place by MoWonderboy whose winning total was from two Flackesque predictions.
