Miguel Sanchez Posted June 16, 2019 Author Share Posted June 16, 2019 Week 24 update One down this week, a man named Pat Bowlen who owned the Denver Broncos: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/wires/ap/article-7142723/Broncos-owner-Pat-Bowlen-dies-75-Hall-enshrinement.html As a fan of one of Colorado's other major league sport teams which can struggle for attention when the Broncos are good, I have a strange antipathy towards something I nominally have no interest in. With that in mind, here's what Homer has to say: Bowlen was 75 when he died, so he's worth 50 Base Points. As a Solo Shot for @Mark Connolly he gets an extra 50, so he's worth a total 100 points. As a result, the standings now look like this: 1. alta-pete 448 2. Oooooft 411 3. Ned Nederlander 3974. sparky88 3285. DBA 2826. chomp my root 2217. Bishop Briggs 207 8. Lex 1869.

It's fair comment, even if it has nothing to do with this topic. On 6/15/2019 at 09:30, MixuFixit said: I'll be honest I thought he was dead already. Some genes he had, here he is aged 91, to me he looks like a man in his 70s: Is he about to autograph that dog? 16 hours ago, Miguel Sanchez said: As a fan of one of Colorado's other major league sport teams which can struggle for attention when the Broncos are good, Can I ask which one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
