How does GM Rohde's behavior even begin to compare with Kasparov who
has single-handedly done as much if not more than Campomanes or the
current dictator in charge of FIDE, to destroy chess.

1. Taking back a move against Judit Polgar
2. Hijacking the Championship
3. Constant arguments with Organizers
4. Refusal to act civil when losing Radjabov
5 Accuse everyone of cheating, IBM(which cost chess a big sponser)
4. Calling GM's fish if they are rated below 2600(very unprofesional
to demean colleagues.
5. Acting Childish at press confrences.
6. Complain when his game isn't picked for a brilliancy prize and
blaming the voters for being ignorant.
7. Demeans women chess ability

Korchnoi is also known for being extremely unpleasant when losing

Here's another paradigm of Timothy Hanke's superlative communication skills.

Way to contribute to a troll thread!

Very astute!

Awwww...Kasparov is just spirited...just a touch of that "true
geniuses can be sensitive *******s" trait happening.

(NOT a phenomenon to be confused with "fake geniuses who drive cabs,
**** a lot of foreign women and subsequently have lots of *******
children, and write on the internet that they are IMs")

;-)

O.K.

Yeah, everyone has indeed *thought* as much; Tim is completely right
(even though some would like to push the notion into their
subconscience)...

I know the saying came from Nimzowitsch, but what I don't know is who he was
saying it about?
