Disputing Mr.Soltis
The March issue of Chess Life contains sentiments by GM Andrew Soltis that I've got to take issue with....
"There are people who like to compete but don't like to think a lot.They often find fufillment in sports..."
-GM Andrew Soltis on pg.10 of the March 2006 Chess Life.
I can't claim to be especially knowledgeable about sports like football,basketball,baseball,and so on but it seems like they can contain their own fair share of heavy thinking.
Just some thoughts.

The Aura of Mikhail Tal
I heart this picture!
What can I say?
I love a determined looking and nicely dressed chess warrior!
This image captures the intensity and absorption I like to feel at the board during a tournament game.
