I think most people either love Danny or hate em however I have sort of am boderline on that subject until today.  Obviously he is a world class player and a self indulging egomaniac but I like to try to read / listen to anything I can get my hands on from him just because he is such a great player.  I actually enjoyed READING his blog even on non poker related matters including golf game and I tried to keep an open mind when he switched to the video blog but this guy is just too much to deal with anymore.  The other day I catch one of his video blogs where he is driving his car while VBing and even looking down at his Treo so he can read his notes.  I thought that was pretty wreckless but to each their own.  However, I just watched his latest entry and I have had enough.  I guess he has a right to do these video blogs however he wants but it's just disrepectful to the viewer to have to see this guy yawn in between every other sentence on his couch.  GG Danny.

Other than my first tournament ever 18 months ago, where I only played with him for about 30 minutes, I had never seen DN in a tournament, until last week where I was sitting at an adjacent table as him.  His rail is out of control.  People 4 and 5 deep all around his table, and he's chatting with them, getting up and signing stuff, passing his lunch around so they can all see it, ect ect.  I've never seen in person someone take so well to being "known" as him.

You're upset a world class, top ranked player is taking the time out of his day to let the rest of us in on how he lives, what he thinks, does, etc. while showing he is still a normal person and not some snobby guy who has let the money go to his head.

I second the, "you sir, are an idiot."
