The Olympics are over, though they're still on my brain--dreaming of (wishing for) the 2016 games in Chicago. And maybe by then the brains plus brawn sport of chess boxing will be on the schedule. I may be the last one on the planet to have heard of it (doubtful); I saw a Bill Geist bit on it on CBS Sunday Morning. And it's actually sort of appealing...and, though I'm not a big boxing fan, I'd jump at the chance to attend a bout. (Beer would be a necessity.) I am just teaching my son to play chess; maybe we could add the boxing in, too. He could become the world champ. Do you think a three-year-old has ever started training for chess boxing?
Tons o' clips on the youtube.
