In the game chat, I commented that our move was probably what he expected, not that we care. Fritz's reply was that he was surprised because he expected a *good* move. He thinks our move was just an attempt to shorten the agony of our loss.
All mobsters are free to suggest trash talk.

"Shorten the agony of our loss"? Is he suggesting that we're trying to lose quickly!?
I hope in his game notes he has a suggestion for a better move. Unfortunately it will be a very long time until we get to see it.

He was joking -- the move that we played is most likely the one that he anticipated. If he was expecting (fearing?) E->e5 if was only because he lost to Chessandgo with that move last week.
