Nate have you heard from the Canadians lately? Any takers on supermaches? Pulling on stage baby! Justin, no supermatches this time around. As for the guys from Nova Scotia/New Brunswick area, they might send a few guys down to represent but I guess they have a big tournament the following weekend so their involvement might not be as big as we'd hoped.

Hi,
I thought there was going to be a match between Kenny Smith and RVJ at this tournament. As well as Big Dave M. Was I hallusinating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was the initial plan, but all the matches fell through--RVJ got signed with the UAL and couldn't pull and no one we asked wanted to step up to the plate to take Dave Marroccos challenge.
I posted that very clearly both on the board and my Facebook page that the super matches weren't happening.
