US Chess League

What in tarnation is going on with the USCL. What has the makings of a decent way to promote chess here in the U.S. is becoming more a soap opera than a sporting event. Like the NY Post back pages, articles and comments are popping up all over the place filled with scandal and childish behavoir.

What happened to Chess being a gentleman's game? Why the poor sportsmanship and the nastiness surrounding this league? Can't you guys just play the games and promote chess without the bickering?

GROW UP

You kidding? Trash-talking is one of those things that gives matches and players some flavor!

Now granted, trash-talking and animosity are not necessary, and it's probably optimal to have only a few unprofessionals among the professionals.
