Gary Kasparov
Gary Kasparov
Which bonehead made this comment? Disgusting!
Kasparov. I love his game, but he was absolutely wrong! Chess players are not always the smartest people. It’s one of the ironies of the game than many chess players are sorely lacking in critical reasoning skills when it comes to understanding society, politics, and even science.
Garry Kasparov – in all honesty, for whatever reasons (and Judit Polgar aside), he is yet to be proved wrong.
Oh I said that to Susan, hehe! Ok, seriously though, maybe Fischer or Kasparov?

If I’m not mistaken the ‘binehead’ was Garry Kasparov …
Per Google search, it was Gary Kasparov. I would assume he feels what Judit has done is not enough. At least, its not as bad as Fischer who once said he could give Knight odds to any woman player (at the time, he was right) but would have loved to see him try this with a more current stronger female.
A Jackass.
What is the largest chocolate chess set to be created? At $15.00 per lb not including the labor to shape and mold it this could be interesting. These weblinks talk about a 1,000 lb chocolate chess set to be shown on season finale of the TLC hit show “The Little Chocolatiers” on May 4th.

Oh, and I thought that this comment about women chess players was very provincial.
who wrote what comment??
Gary Kasparov
Well for one thing, the women’s chess board in the painting is set up wrong!
he was right. and he didnt say a word about women’s intelligence
yes — he didn’t say a word about women’s intelligence.
Sounds like something Fischer would say…
This is an old Kasparov quote. He’s quite wrong, of course…
