Gadarene has selected this Hollywood star who is perhaps most famous for making an indecent proposal.


John McCain - 80 points

This 80 year old politician can't raise his hands above his head because he was tortured during the war. He was also selected by Girlfriendarene

Well they say that black don't crack and here's some evidence of it. I hope I look as good as this former NFL player when I'm 80. Selected by aaronk56


Elizabeth Dole - 80 points

Another person selected by Booker Wolfbox who is most famous for being married to someone.


Ed Broadbent - 80 points

Canadian politician picked by True North to keep up his Canadian team theme.


Denis Noble - 80 points

If I picked a guy who looked like this for my team I would want more than 80 points for him. This British scientist was picked by JMurder3. Uncle Denis perhaps?

This person didn't specify that he meant the 14th Dalai Lama, but I gave him the benefit of the doubt. He rounds out and helps jedi have faith in his team.

This is the 2nd person called Laurence on Gadarene's team. It's an all time record. Congratulations. He's a federal judge btw.

When ArcticKnight picked Tom Watson I said that it wouldn't be the last golfer he picked. Here's the proof that I was telling the truth.

John Madden - 80 points

Regis Philbin - 85 points

TV presenter and household name Regis Philbin is a member of team SuperUberBob


Raul Castro - 85 points

The youngest of the Castro brothers is our next pick. It's his turn to be President of Cuba. I'm pretty sure that's how Communism works. rtspurs picked him.


Mikhail Gorbachev - 85 points

Former leader of Russia and not the seemingly fun drunk one. Booker Wolfbox made this selection.


Desmond Tutu - 85 points

This guy has been old forever and shows no sign of letting up. I'm sure he'll still be old in many years to come. This pick brought to you by Booker Wolfbox

Robert Duvall - 86 points

This Hollywood star was JMurder3's replacement pick when he found out that Gus Andreone was ineligible. Robert may be 86, but he was still 19 years Gus's junior.


Madonna Buder - 86 points

I was ready to fill this one with a bunch of "Madonna is old" jokes, but Madonna Buder deserves more than that. Known as the Iron Nun because she's a nun and because she is superfit and is the oldest person to have ever completed an Ironman Triathlon at the age of 82. She's also Canadian which makes this a True North pick.

Whitey Bulger - 87 points

Very clever rtspurs. This guy could die this year or already be dead and we wouldn't know it. One of the FBI's 10 most wanted seems like a dead cert for 87 points.

Yeah, if I knew a lot of non-sheepy olds, I definitely would have gone that way. Actuarial charts over a 1 year period are pretty pretty kind.

As it is, I don't, so my answers were what they were.

First up the people who are exactly 90:

Don Rickles - 90 points

This comedian also does voice over and acting work. His career started in the 50s and is still going on today. He's due to be the voice of Mr Potato head in Toy Story 4 in 2019. This is ChachiArcola's final pick


David Attenborough - 90 points

British broadcaster and naturalist is the voice behind many of the world's most successful wildlife shows. He is the final pick for team Gadarene


Alan Greenspan - 90 points

American economist and final pick for Girlfriendarene

I would now like to point out that there are 12 picks left and 5 belong to toedder and 7 belong to me.

Stan Lee - 94 points

The Marvel Comic man and film cameo extraordinaire is 94 years old and still going strong. Welcome to team xander biscuits Mr Lee


Pierre Cardin - 94 points

Italian born French fashion designer Pierre Cardin has been picked by toedder. I believe that the reason he has lived so long is because someone put a really bad suit on him and he declared that he wouldn't be seen dead in it.


Carl Reiner - 94 points

I never realised that the acting veteran was 94 years old. He seems at least 10 years younger. Good pick toedder


Marty Allen - 94 points

This stand up comedian and WW2 veteran is another 94 year old pick of toedder's.
