Dear Hesh, Please don't be a pessimist. We know that you are disappointed; the reason being your 7 month honeymoon with Bopana did not pay any dividend. You are now totally dejected and telling the media that - "I guess I will have to die without an Olympic Medal........" Never mind; we, 1210 Million Indians will pray for you so that almighty will be in your favour and you will win a gold in 2016 Olympics elderly group of tennis players (above 40) doubles with Lee. So, don't fight; start practicing with Lee the moment both of you are back from London.
Reminds of adage - One dirty fish.. First he shamelessly twisted, deformed protocols and all etiquettes during team selection and now so shamelessly sits with another loser who has yet to show something for medals and claims he will not play with Leander. Not only you Mahesh, the person sitting beside you will meet the same fate. What losers
Only Leander paes can win medal for India in Tennis. And bhupathi never. Any other player can also win medal in Tennis but with guidence of Paes Only. Rohan get started n say SORRY to Leander.

Nice joke, mate. How many Asian gold or Olympic gold have Leander and Mahesh won together despite playing so many times. Answer is 0. Don't put the blame on Mahesh alone.
You did the right thing, Mahesh. There's no point playing with someone whom you have differences with. Pairing with Leander will have the same effect because you are not a team together. At least you tried your best. Arm chair critics with no understanding of sport will say whatever they want and typically put their emotions over logic. No worries, you did your best for India.

Dear Mahesh, I did not even feel sorry for you folks even .00001 percent. You did not loose against the french pair, its your ego which made you to bite dust. You are already 38 and this may be your last olympics and you should have paired Paes for a better chance of winning a medal. Paes has less to loose since he already has a Olympic medal. You tried to dump Paes and got dumped yourself. Ok.. Past is past. You are a good player and contributed a lot to our country. But "YOU STILL DON'T HAVE A OLYMPIC MEDAL" Bala
Look at his statement - "Guess I'll will..."...Always this I, I and I factor. He has concentrated on politics, put his own egos and interest first and put the whole system in jeopardy. I am sure this has put additional mental pressure on himself by going against the selectors and officials. Moreover, he has put pressure on the selectors and officials through Mr S.M.Krishan and Sports Minister. He refused to partner a top seeded doubles player and choose one of his chamchas just to satisfy his own ego?
