No, I didn't. I just felt like justifying since I think that Anand is the ONLY
person on the planet with even a slim chance (as opposed to none) of winning
against Kasparov.

If you look at Anand's lifetime record, he has consistently folded the first few
times he attempted a given goal (nerves I guess). But eventually, he has been
successful. The World Championship is the only goal that has eluded him. Since
he has had some World Championship experience now (twice), maybe he won't fold
again (but I won't be betting against Kasparov).
