Peanut President posted:Scrabble. Chess, on occasion when I was in college (which was cool by me, being a chess guy), but I suppose there's at least some tradition of that getting sports coverage dating back to the Fischer days.

Alain Post posted:I think it was Bobby Fischer Goes To War that was a good book about him? Not a full biography, I think, but a really good look at the international interest in the Spassky-Fischer matches. It's a pretty solid read. There are several Fischer movies, some of which are okay, some of which are bad, and one of which features him talking to the ghost of his dead father and goes on for like an hour too long. There are a lot fewer crazy grandmasters these days, which may have a lot to do with the fact that thanks to computers, the best players now accomplish more in a few hours of study than players in previous generations could do in sessions twice as long. Not zero crazy grandmasters, mind you, but less.

Vertical Lime posted:Speaking of Francesa, the second annual Francesacon was yesterday. Yes, it exists Ahahahahaha, that's incredible. I especially love that they chanted "Fox Sports sucks!" at him, and he didn't try to stop them - he just said "there's a camera rolling here somewhere, so no comment."

Retail Slave posted:I also think there was an ESPN 900 number, back when 900 numbers were still a thing. When I saw this post, I remembered part of the jingle: "call 1-900-976-ESPN!" And then I found video proof.
