My beef with this event is that we're going to see a match against a computer
that *is* champion.  Whatever wins the Fritz vs Junior playoff will be
*considered* champion by everyone who sees anything in print about the event.

It's a brilliant idea, a wonderful way to manufacture a championship out of thin
air.  You go to the tournament and lose, but it doesn't matter, because you just
put the crown on your own head later.
