Someday, years from now, perhaps when we are hosting a Death Pool 10th Anniversary Highlight Show, we will devote an entire segment looking back on the '08 draft, and THE debate that would shape Death Pool rosters for years to come: Spears or Winehouse? We believe this will rank up with Oden-Durant, and Cheers-Seinfeld, and Mr. Pibb-Dr. Slice as one of the most hotly debated subjects of our time.
Sticking with the basketball analogy, Spears would be Oden, the safer pick that you could just about guarantee would pay off within five years, probably less. Winehouse was Durant, the one who came on strong at the end of the previous season and wasn't as much of a guarantee to pay off in five years, but had limitless potential. What was a Death Pool owner to do?
At the '08 Draft, we had our answer. Pink is the New Death stunned the league by using a first round draft pick on the 24-year-old Winehouse, passing up ill octogenerians, and the certifiably nuts Spears. Great risk brings the potential for great reward, and Winehouse is doing her best to make her owners proud, being caught smoking crack over the weekend and changing her appearance to look like Amy Fischer auditioning for the Sopranos. This battle should be a back-and-forth affair all year long (or perhaps not that long), and is sure to deliver some unforgettable lowlights. Your move, Britney.

As far as a collateral damage pick, Megan has got to be happy to have drafted Blaaaake as a late entry. You know he'll snort her remains ala Keith Richards and homegirl is pure (only in that sense of the word).
"Want me to go to rehab, and I say yes, yes, yes..." Will this be a truly life-changing experience? Will she be constantly in and out of rehabs, like Scott Weiland, or will this be enough to clean her off the drugs, like...well, I can't name any clean celebrities. Betty Ford?
I'm retarded. Here's the link.
I think Brit-Brit has just made the next move by getting re-committed to a psych ward. With this new development, we have one going down, and one going into rehab...who shall win?
Wino responds by being placed on a drip after excessive vomiting. Neck and neck this battle.
