I'm sick and tired of these chess streamers that barely know how to play the game, and try to get viewers by showing a little skin!

I don't think most realize that classical chess isn't being phased out because the fans want it. Its because rapid/blitz are a better business model. Corporations don't give customers what they want, they give them whats most profitable. The same is true of online vs. OTB

Magnus truly is the greatest. Plenty of greats, but they all foolishly tried to play within the rules. Nobody had the guile to negotiate a better deal mid tournament. The rules are the rules? Ok FIDE. Why dont you give me your real best offer so we can get out of here.

Imagine if the Super Bowl could end in a tie. Everybody goes home happy, ultimate win-win scenario. It would be great. Thats why chess is the best sport.

The more serious lesson we've learned from the Magnus jeans incident is that apparently you'd need an electron microscope to see the sub-atomicly tiny amount of FIDEs's shit that Magnus is prepared to put up with. If it was Norway Chess, I guarantee you he's still playing.

As a man prevented from attending numerous funerals and weddings in jeans (by my wife) because I was "under-dressed," let me say that Magnus is my goddamn hero. Greatest of all time by a mile, a cultural icon. I could kiss him. My jeans yearn to breathe free.
