Nonetheless, we say goodbye to the good man in today\u2019s video lede; he won 31 games in a row before being stopped by some oddball chess personality (are there ever any grandmaster-level chess players who are NOT ODDBALLS? NO, THERE ARE NOT! THEY ARE ALL ODDBALLS, and THIS GUY IS RELATABLE TO THE HOI POLLOI, TOO, FOR REASONS OTHER THAN CHESS, WHICH OF COURSE MAKES HIM AN ODDBALL EVEN IN RELATION TO THE USUAL HIGH ODDBALL STANDARDS OF ODDBALL GRANDMASTER-LEVEL CHESS PEOPLE!

Why not let the nonwhite immigrants do some good things every now &amp; again so that maybe the white immigrants (yea, verily, remember the Natives were here way-first!) can ease off of their seemingly neverending criticisms of the nonwhite immigrants? All these geography bees &amp; spelling bees for the kids, it\u2019s nice to see these nonwhite immigrants doing a good job \u2014 and English isn\u2019t even their first language! Come on, white immigrants to America! That\u2019s a real bootstrap story if ever there was one.
