Sheep in the year 2015

if Milk Duds is a one pointer, I will be okay with that. They're hideous.

2. Name a specific candy kids are disappointed to get on Halloween. Milk Duds
3. What is the best decade in a person's life (ie, teens, twenties, thirties, etc)? 20s

Not sure why I went with 30s...that was pretty dumb.

 

I went with Lochte because I was thinking of someone current. Damn it.

4. Ryan Lochte (first thought was Spitz, counting on the young 'uns here).
5. Beads
6. Game of Thrones
7. Happy
8. Dick Vitale (counting on name recognition here for non bkc fans, should be saved by a plurality of votes if not).

Thought about putting Spokane for No. 9, but thought I had a chance to do well this week.

Should have put Spokane.

 

I'm trying to win (or at least finish middle of the pack). To repeat what I wrote earlier - Spitz was my gut answer, but over-thinking it lead to me believe the younger generation here would go with someone more recent and hence I changed my answer from Spitz to Thorpe.

Didn't hear Let It Go on the radio (must be listening to the wrong stations) so I didn't think that would be the answer, although my son has moved on from singing stuff from Springsteen's Seeger Sessions to singing that and Katie Perry's "Roar" too much. Almost went with "Shake It Off", but thought since Happy was the winning choice last week, it might be the winning choice again.

 

I am anxiously awaiting the results.

 

I matched Cran on eight of the answers. That means I'll be a lone wolf on the other two, or this will be his drop week. Or heck, both.

Edit: I know I am not a lone wolf on one of them.
