*Yes, I'm a d4 player, so shoot me.
*For the last time, it's pronounced Ahlyekeen, not Alekinn, or Alekein, it's pronounced Ahlyekeen.
*In my humble opinion, Viktor Korchnoi needs to give up chess just like the Pope needs to give up "poping", come on Korchnoi, get with the program, YOU SUCK!
*Yes, watching Vladimir Kramnik play chess IS more boring than watching uranium turn into lead.
*If I hear the word prodigy applied to one more manufactured chess player, I will barf.
*Favorite players of yesteryear: Morphy, Fischer, Alekhine, Pillsbury.
*Favorite players of today: Adams and Ponomariov.
*Ahh, @#$% it, I'm back.
