I never thought about it like this. Like to me it just tells how good the Russian prodigies were more than how poorly Robert may have play.
It's time to let poor Robert Wade finally RIP....

Each day as I and millions of other chess enthusiasts log on to Chess.com, we are greeted with interesting factoids and infobits from around the chess world like the one below:
"In 1951, IM Robert Wade played a simultaneous exhibition against 30 Russian schoolboys. Wade won 0 games, drew 10, and lost the other 20."
Do we need/want millions of reminders each day of his poor performance against a stacked field of 30 Russian prodigies? maybe the Chess.com Dev's could mix this up a bit ? Thoughts ?
