Two somewhat contrasting thoughts came to mind when I read the news:

1.  When International Grandmaster Dr. Reuben Fine announced he was retiring
    from competitive chess to devote full time to his psychology practice,
    someone said, "A great loss for chess, at most a draw for psychology."

2.  Back in the 20's I think it was the Giants who sent a player outright
    to the Dodgers for no compensation, then announced that both teams
    were improved by the trade.

BTW, does anybody know where Tom Deinhart has moved on to?  The Sporting
News doesn't seem to have that information on their website.
