Come on:


A headstrong guy with a medical condition is trailing and decides to go for a swing.

The way he tries ranges somewhere betweem bad judgement and idiotic.

He catches a once-in-a-lifetime layout.


Then a young guy, also with a medical condition, makes some comments he should have considered a little more carefully.


Next board.

And for that more than 30 pages of posts and over 20,000 views?

Now THAT'S "kibble for the intellect"!

rec.games.bridge newsnet group is one of the earliest bridge forums on the internet. Recently the total posts to RGB (starting in the early 1990s) was overtaken by the total posts to BBF (which has been going less than half that time).

Agree with JLOGIC

haha, good one fluffy :D

also, I never realised there was so much pent-up drama and personal vendettas on BBF until I read this thread. Isn't bridge just a game any more?

When was bridge just a game? When was the internet not serious business?
