That is IMPORTANT because we all know that chess players themselves are
too
cheap to put up the money to "support" chess. We want someone from
outside
chess to take the battle damage.. chess being so worthy of "support."
Do you know any other sports where sportsmen "sponsor" their disciplines ?
If we sponsor chess ourselves it becomes a recreational game but not a
sport.
