Of all the players to say this about, not sure Phil Gordon would be at the top of my list. I'm not going to hate on the guy like the 2+2 jerks, but he hardly has the world's best results.

Phil who?

From all the top players he has got the least attention from.... me.

change it to Helmut and I'm laughing all day long.
change to Ivy and I agree with most statements there.
Change to Laak and I'm like, no way. Laak is the devil that made that deal with Ivy.

Phil Gordon is a douchebag and a sketchy know-it-all commentator.

Aren't the majority of these, like > 90%, exactly the same as the Chuck Norris lists with the name changed to Phil Gordon, or am I missing something?

As far as I can see, yes.

Phil Gordon substituted for Chuck Norris
Poker substituted for Roundhouse kick to the face

The only difference is that all these things are true about Chuck, whereas i spose they're ironic? when applied to Gordon.

Why the hell did the pick Phil Gordon ... he doesn't even have a bracelet, really any big tourney wins, and I don't think he plays in the big game and if he did I bet he's a loser.

Hell, I'd put Hellmuth in there before I'd put Gordon in those quotes.
