[No way Fischer only played a few games against it.No, no, it's not ridiculous for Xanthos at all, he makes statements like that all the time.
To gainsay that is to show one's ignorance. You cannot tell me that in all of the hundreds of thousands of games Fischer played, he only saw the Scandinavian used against his favorite opening as white,1.E4, less than ten times. That's a ridiculous statement even for you.[/b]
Couldn't of been too unpopular, here's a game Fischer played in a chess olympiad against it in 1962.

Is this one of the games previously claimed in the chess database of his games? Just google fischer and scandinavian or center counter, there's lots of examples
