Well said. [Almost] everybody's a critic. I have the impression the people mentioned in this quote derive some type of satisfaction from the very action of degrading. Maybe at some point in time they can form their own community and the the rest of us can simply observe the outcome of such a community. Or should I say the result?
Hey Spartecus---you want degrading. When a world title comtender degrades the game the way Short did in 93'---thats a good definition of degrading!
Pull your head out and breathe some fresh air---you're talking hogwash.
How about this Spartecus---I'll drop off this thread and let you and actor talk nonsense to your hearts content---what a conversation thats going to be!!!!!!!!!
First of all lets get you facts straight---it was 12 1/2 to 7 1/2. Short won one game. Short was 26 when he played Karpov and Karpov was 41. Karpov wasn't over the hill but was on a downward slide.
You say "Short took a while to get his win but not as long as Kasparov did in his first world championship match."
Karpov was in his prime in that match---it was close to being a skunk match---6-0.
That match in 93 was one of the most pathetic matches I have ever witnessed. Short was a bum!
Strange hills where you live huh?
Man, you are so lame. How about this---say something intelligent once in a while.
