Anyone who doesn't pick Boyd is out of their mind.

Some of these guys don't even belong on this list. The craziest ones are probably busto anyway.

Anyone who picks something other than Boyd should have themself nominated instead.

I'd have to say Matusow has the overall Biggest Loon title on lock--meds will tend to imbalance some people worse than before they got on them. One need only watch his god-awful CPTV show for further proof. I do like the guy/have sympathy for the guy, but "The Mouthpiece" is just inexcusable.

Good grief.

Magriel and Boyd are the only debatable ones, and it's pretty [censored] slimey and immature to make light of someone's mental illness in the first place--especially when they are succeeding in life, which is more than can probably be said for your stupid ass.

What juvenile cesspool 2x2 has become. David Sklansky must be very proud.

I deleted my post because I agree with antisocialgrace's response.

(Except to say that Paul does not belong on this list at all.)

I think he might have some issues, but Paul is absolutely brilliant from what I've heard.

Laing's actually a great guy who seems to realize his shortfalls. He's just a normal guy away from the tables and liquor.

He's got some of the best table chatter ever, though.

In this order:

-Daniel Negreanu - Halfway to a nervous breakdown. He needs to just come out like Garcia did on Reno 911 and be done with it. He'll probably be a better player being more comfortable in his own skin and won't feel the need to be the center of attention as much as he does now.

-Dutch Boyd - Obvious mental patient.

-Paul Magriel - Rainman. Just odd to observe.

-Mike Matusow - He and Boyd are the two chemical minds in this list but I'll give Mike props. He pretty much sucks at everything he does except for finding ways to get people to keep giving him money and really, isn't that what it is all about?

-Humberto Brenes - Someone need to stick that chark of his and send him back to Costa Rica. Poker does not need more bilingual lunatics.

-Tony G. - He seems to have chilled somewhat now that he has an agent. He is still a bloated irritating arrogant mass but so are most of the viewers that watch him on TV so I guess his schtick plays well.

-Phil Laak - In small does he is OK but unfortunately this camera whore isn't satisfied with small doses. Chan is going for his tenth bracelet and Laak has to act like the kid in school who gets no attention at home. "Look at me, look at me!" Pathetic but like most of the guys on this list, he knows that when he acts like a complete idiot, bobblehead sales will go up.

-Phil Hellmuth - He doesn't just go postal for the cameras. Some of his best performances have been totally mental and away from the cameras.

Sounds like someone has been in therapy. Does any comment that touches a nerve rank as juvenile in your mind? Seriously, this isn't the Princeton Review. It is a f'ing message board that is known for taking tongue-in-cheek stabs at these guys. Hell, I would bet that some on the OP's list would be pleased to see that their lunatic myth is being perpetuated through posts liked this (see above post related to Phil Laak bobblehead sales).

Lighten up.

mike laing is the weirdest guy ive ever met. but most of his problems are alcohol related. seems like a great player before he's wasted though.

from what ive seen on TV Humberto and Laak play it up for the camera.

Magriel and Boyd just have some physchological problems so i guess by technicality they are the biggest lunatics.
