even though i'm a huge fischer troll, Kasparov was 'better' and should have been ranked higher |

"I feel sorry for players who are always lying awake at night, brooding over their games."

Date: July 30th, 2012 7:12 PM Author: ebony philosopher-king principal's office He pisses me off because I like Karjakin and Rajbov or whatever his name is and Nakamura better, but Karjakin is a beta and Raj fell off and at least Nakamura got good now and still has an attitude.
But MC seems decent. He seems fairly chill and like he's a bit of a dick to play against ala Fischer but not as much of a dick which is disappointing. |

Date: July 31st, 2012 2:09 AM Author: salmon flatulent chad Yeah, Carlsen would be more interesting if he had an edge to him like Fischer. The Biel Chess Festival tournament going on right now is a great example. Morozevich got sick or had a case of the freakouts or some shit and had to withdraw. Carlsen had the option of making Moro drag his gay ass to the board or forfeit their scheduled game, or playing a make-up game against his replacement on Sunday, which was supposed to be a rest day. Carlsen decided to be a gentleman, even though it meant eight games in a row. I'm sure Fischer would've just said "Fuck ya, you Jew bastard."

Date: August 3rd, 2013 2:49 PM Author: ebony philosopher-king principal's office I don't think so. Fischer may have been a dick off the board, but he was a professional 9 times out of 10 while playing and had immense respect and sportsmanship. Consider that pretty much every chess player whines or bitches about petty shit at some point, and consider what he was up against, and Fischer really treated the game right unlike the cheating Ruskies (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2009503&forum_id=2)#23773706) |
