"Hmmm! Yeah, Kram the Sham! Like I've always said! Topalov isn't too off! The Russian cheated! Oh, and I hope you all know that human moves mixed with computers moves versus an opponent is virtually invincible."

I guess some people can't resist falling in love with a winner... it can happen to the most critical of oppositions!

Well, everyone at the Fischer-Spassky match hated Fischer, too - until he won them over, remember? So, here's to Kramnik. Hope we don't have another earthquake in Hawaii. Man, I was on the commode when it happened. The whole bathroom stall and the building I was in shook violently. I thought Jesus had come back, so I jumped up from the commode and forgot to flush. The security guard came in, and flushed it for me after all was calm. I know. Stop laughing.

Actually some of us still don't like Fischer because of his behaviour. Those of us who have actual morals.

Even if you don't like Fischer, you could never fault him for his chess. 🙂

And 99% of the time you can't fault Topalov for his chess. That doesn't make either of them a worthy world champion. So tell me, when did you change your mind about Kramnik cheating?

When I saw Kramnik's character shine like the stars, I knew no such champion would dare stoop to those lower levels of sportsmanship. Also, when I saw Topalov turn from my favorite chess player into my schmuck and a bad sport, I realized I was on the wrong bandwagon. Not to mention, I own Kramnol's Easy chess clock, the black one with all the cool functions?
