When a guy resigns a game, he can't win it anymore. 😕

Madden would take Tartakower and simply suck all the eloquence out of the quotes.

"I don't know about you, but I'd rather take a few of HIS guys - you know, capture here - BOOM! - capture there - BOOM! insteada lettin' him take mine." -JM

JM Edit - "'cause if you got more guys, you're probably gonna win!"
