The Grudge Match is upon us once again! It is up to YOU, the players of the Pennsylvania/Southern NJ region, to decide who you want representing you against the far less talented teams of New England and New York/Northern NJ! Pick the FIVE most talented Vintage players who live in the Pennsylvania/Southern NJ region. The three players with the highest vote totals will make up TEAM PENNSYLVANIA/SOUTHERN NJ, and represent the region! If anyone can't attend, the player with the 4th most votes will be put on the team, and so on.
Here are the qualifications:
1) The player/s must live in the Pennsylvania/Southern NJ region.
2) The player/s must be good at Vintage. Yes, I know everyone wants to vote for your BFFs and teammates. Use tournament results since the last Grudge Match as a barometer. Have the player/s you want to vote for Top 8'ed recently, or perhaps even won? If yes, then they would make a good candidate.
3) The player/s must be awesome (this SHOULD be a gimme, since everyone from Pennsylvania/Southern NJ is awesome). Anyone can change their votes by editing their post up until Friday, August 22nd, when this thread will be locked. LET THE VOTING BEGIN!

I was once asked on MWS, what the highest I ever finished at a TMD Open was. I replied, "I've never played in a Waterbury. I was then called "A TOTAL NOOB!"

Thank goodness I don't have to vote in this region. I just tried coming up with a list and after cutting it down to 8 or 9 guys I was at a loss for how to trim it down further. Insanity.

Such a talented pool of players in the East Coast, here in PA/NJ, specifically. I've had the pleasure of meeting, playing, and in several instances enjoying a post-event meal with many of them. Narrowing it down to 5 is tough, because in the past 2-3 years, I've seen great players hit streaks and slumps and would hate to see any of them left off the list. With all of that being said, my limited research and gut tells me:
-Keith "Mr. Grimm" Seals
-Joel "Reigning Champ" Lim
-Justin "Bomberman" Kohler
So many more, but based on recent results, I'd say alternates would include:
-Rob Edwards
-Shawn Griffiths
-Matt Murray
-Brian Kelly

I'm hearing that Rob and Shawn may not be able to make this. Although they would be missed for this Grudge Match, fortunately, this area has a surplus of qualified candidates. For now, I'm assuming they can't make it:
Keith Seals
Will Magrann
Craig Berry
Justin Kohler
Shawn Griffiths
Edited: I obviously misspelled Shawn Griffiths as Matthew Murray
