This appears to be about a insignificant social pool game and verges on being a hoax. Grahame (talk) 06:35, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete as a hoax, or patent nonsense if you like. Links to the website for a game. No internet mentions for "manly cup" (other than the provided link), or for any of the people mentioned in the article. No references provided whatsoever. Although the linked game is a hockey simulator, the article seems to describe a billiards competition. Ivanvector (talk) 06:58, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
