will Shane/Mika TAR match happen before US Open?
- Thread starter cleary
- Start date
This is just as likely to happen as a match between Johnny Archer and Shane Van Boening
I voted no.
If it should happen though, I will consider betting on the World Ten Ball Champion if I can get a little odds on the money or some games on the wire.

:killingme: Odds or games on the wire :killingme: Oh Roy,you crack me up.
All it take is someone to stake Mika, anyone interested?
lol.....
its plain and simple with you mr. mars never any missunderstanding or hearsay or any grey areas! "GET THE DOUGH AND LETS GO":thumbup:

All the money he won the past two years, he should stake himself. See if that thing beats.
You mean all the money he won but hasn't been paid yet? ;-)
Why can't these guys get together and play?
There are two sides to this one:
A.) This match won't go down, because of the blow to Mika's ego if he loses, *especially* before the U.S. Open, when everyone's eyes will be on Mika to see if he can do the impossible -- three-peat.
B.) If the match does go down, and Mika manages to keep his chin up win or lose, he will earn big-time points in everyone's eyes precisely because: 1. "hey, Mika actually matched up!" (when's the last time we saw Mika match up?), and 2. he kept his chin up -- especially if he loses. Mika would earn beaucoup points in a lot of people's eyes if he's able to shrug-off a loss with nary the Mika-trademarked mumble or whine. It would behoove Mika to do this, to surprise a lot of people.
I'd LOVE to see the match go down for reason letter B, but I'm in the reason letter A camp, unfortunately.

It actually has nothing to do with this. Unfortunately I'm in a position where I shouldn't elaborate.
Which way did you vote Nathan?
Fortunately I can elaborate on my comment:
When Shane played Efren in the challenge match at the DCC, Mika sat next to me to watch them play. I asked him when was he was going to play Shane? His response was he would love to play him, do you want to stake me at it? I told him I was already staking Shane and nothing else was said.
So at that time all he needed was a backer, now maybe he needs more.
Perhaps Yen Makabenta can stake him with what he hasnt paid him from the World 10ball Championship?
I voted 'No'.
EDIT: Don't get me wrong. I'd *love* to see this happen and I hope Justin can pull it together, but from what I know about Mika (and from what we've discussed) it's not going to happen ...not even if he's backed.
