Tom Guevin, Peter Szigeti, Mike Long, Peter Leiher, Chris Benafel.

These are the men on this year's invitational ballot who may be overlooked for the very reason I feel they should be voted on.

PTR, left. Benafel, right."

I will start with the most famous in recent times, Peter Szigeti. Now for those of you living under a rock, Peter has taken a game which had the fan appeal of Golf and given it the fan appeal of professional wrestling. Peter never disappoints with his flamboyant outfits, outspoken manner, and creative trash talking. If you want an exciting invitational this man should be first on your ballot. He was certainly first on mine.

Now for Peter predecessor, Tom Guevin. Tom is the original trash talker. Some have claimed he is insane, I think there is much more going on there. I feel he has truly played the entire pro tour for fools. We are all merely puppets that dance in a show for Tom. Vote for him, and you will see an invitational only Tom could produce... for better or worse.

Chris Benafel is probably the best player of this group. Chris can trash talk with the best of them, as well as elicit reactions of anger by merely playing his game. Accused of cheating probably too often, Chris will add a dry humor and a flare of controversy that this event needs to thrive. Just don't let him sell you any used cars.

Thawing Tutor - inspired by one of Magic's greatest villains."

Peter Leiher may be the furthest from the limelight, but make no mistake he is a great villain. His manner may seem dull, but his wit is as sharp as a knife. He can play the dumb hick while outplaying everyone at the event. All the while keeping his opponents off their guard and out of the game. The Uncle is one of the truly funny men playing Magic. Please help me get him in this tourney.

And Last, but certainly not least, Our Dark Lord. Mike Long may have somewhat fallen out of the public eye, but make no mistakes this sweet as candy killer is not to be trifled with. Mike may seethe evil, but that is a good thing in a spectator sport right?
