An idea, what do you all think?
Im thinking of doing a weekly post of a famous chess player and a game of his/her or 2
What do u all think?
Also. maybe annotate a game from the site as a "Game of the Week", not necessarily mine, but a game that looks interesting and I can comment on it heavily to sparsely...
Ideas or opines on this my fellow Net chess buddies??

I think it's a great idea, Josh! Should be lots of fun to read! In the interests of pleasing Brian, here's the game number of one of my games with David.
g1105006514
Naturally, I lost! No big surprise there. But I'll always carry a little medal of pride from that game. Near the end, as I was about to resign, David paid me a hug compliment. He told me that for that game to last the length that it did was a surprise to him, and a tribute to my defensive prowess. That's kept me going in a lot of tough games since then, where I thought I was doomed. I figured if I just kept hanging in, I'd always have a chance. I daresay that's gained me more than a win or two since then.
I don't think I've ever had a chance to thank David for that, so I'd like to do so now.
Thanks David. Pleasure to play you, and if you'd like another contest sometime, please let me know.
I'll email you the gamescore, josh. See what you think!
