Read what I wrote. JJM was my hero way before I even knew who Eddie was. I don't hate the gi. But unfortunately, from my experience, you're more likely to encounter a douche in a gi than without. Not saying they're all douches. Just saying some guys fit the criteria of being a gi douche.
And I agree with Marcelo that a good style to have is mostly no gi as he demonstrates. I roll in the gi. I just use a primarily no gi style.
