Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
‘Now,’this really helps!?’, being the fact that our young chess players are so interested in knowing who the good chess player of the past were and thier successes’
come on now!, don’t we know that if you don’t help this guys, chances are that tomorrow they will not even talk/care about who Kasparov was, that is just to assume that most of them even about him now
this guys need to be taught to take interest in the players of the past and not to only take interest in the players of ‘today’, I bet they would even start calling Carlsen by his rating and not by his name if you don’t help them know better
note: sorry, I am just not happy about my chess players from yestertime not being recognized 🙂
gosh, I makes me mad!
