She's a kid who plays chess. Translating her chess play to anything but chess is infantile.
Strange adjective, but it can work.
Remember the movie
Chasing Bobby Fischer? The kid was being
relentlessly pushed by both his father and a chess coach. They wanted him to be a
merciless player,
shredding his opponents. To be
medieval, bludgeoning his opponents.
The italicized words (other than the movie title are, of course, Muggsyisms and appeared in this thread. The same scooper who called for seizing the oil fields in the Mid East and is in favor of sending the American military to take out the bad guys around the globe. He's one tough little guy behind his keyboard.
Fortunately, the kid's mother in
Chasing Bobby Fischer came down on the father and the coach like a ton of bricks. Remember when the kid threw a game because he obviously wanted out? And have a chance to just be a kid and enjoy other things? I think THAT was what the movie was really about.
Muggsy seems to want to relive his childhood vicariously through a 9-year-old girl. I really hope she has a wide range of interests and is allowed by her parents to just be a kid. Muggsy's non-stop use of aggressive words in his posts-whether here or in basketball threads- is very character revealing.
