The DF team was told to play longer after one of the early games, then when they did play longer, people complained that they played to long. Now the shoe is on the other foot. I like to see both sides play it out, but each must decide for themselves when to call it quits, just as I do when I play the game. GM Kramnik saw the position is lost, I think we should prove it to ourselves, rather than question his judgement. Just my opinion. :)
