Bobby Fischer, Legend, Nutcase, Anti-American??

it can't be so!!

Published on July 10, 2005 By ----- In International

It seems that the famed chess player Bobby Fischer, the master tactician, mr. comeback, has lost his mind... last year he was reported to have spouted irrational anti american rhetoric, that it was out to get everyone.....and claimed that he was being followed by "strange people"....

, to follow up with that, he was reported to have visited a mental hospitol in the US.... He is also known to be an avid racist/bigot...and has stated such feelings without regards to reprisal....The last known location is Rejavik (SP) Iceland, in which granted him citizenship, before the US could obtain him for a warrant for his arrest over 9 years old (for a UN sanctions violation, played a game in yugoslavia when it was banned)....Now, before anyone bashes me, in thinking that i don't like him, I admire him, better yet, i admire his Chess playing ability, he was and still is IMO one of the best Chess players there ever was...I just feel it is sad that he has become what he is now....i hope he gets better....
