To avoid someone think I am saying someone is arrogant, because I am not, I
start this way.
I do not agree with you that sportmen are arrogant.
Some are and some others do not. The true champions are not...want me to name
one? Karpov...

I personally hate arrogant people and I see a lot of being wrong with that.

The first rule for a chess player is "Do not underestimate anybody!"...
