Bobby Fischer dies

Quote from Brandonf:

Asprin, Tylonol, Ibuprofen etc etc. More people die from the long term use of NSAIDs each year than any from all narcotic OD's combined. Kidney stones call also cause failure, many famous historical figures have died this way. Too much booze, the list goes on.

where's the evidence of any of this, brandon?
 
Quote from Alex_in_Oz:

Can we kill this thread? It is B-O-R-I-N-G me to tears!

Chess players are either psychos, pedophiles or losers.

Who cares about them
huh. you are either great in sarcasm or poor in mind.
i would think that good chess players who get into trading
have a huge advantage. complexity, preparation, human
factor - they need to have all of that.
 
what impressed me about fisher was this story was him
calling in at a chess show on tv and proposing a crazy
rook sacrifice (if i correctly) and win a game that was seen
as already lost ... just think about it. you play on tv, settle
it and someone calls in and it is Bobby Fisher!
 
You seemed very sure of this but are you really? Can you say this with 100% certainty?
Quote from Mom0/pH0x:

LOLOL yeah, the mossad has a vested interest in assassinating a lunatic chess champ in iceland, really... that's a good one... almost as good as armored saint's request for 'proof' that excessive boozing damages kidneys...
 
As Hungarian we have a chess heritage/culture and I grew up studying and watching Fischer. He later lived in Budapest for a few years.
I am sad he has passed and that his life was so very tortured, especially the later years.
Quote from nitro:

I know lots of people hated the man for his statements, but as a chess player, Fischer meant a whole lot to my generation.

May he rest in peace.

True, but lets get this straight, he was not a victim. Fischer asked for what he got as far as the way people perceived him.

That he got sick was unfortunate. Kidney failure is painful.
