I'd like to see the whole video of this.
I'm not sure who I side with- Lefsetz likes to talk a lot but doesn't have real answers.

that may be true but gene only has one answer for any question.."see how much money i made".....gene has a lot of fans and they will laugh at his jokes and take his side regardless even if he's being a(n) ------ (fill in own epithet here).....

on this occasion it looks like Gene didn't have the crowd on his side- his petty "little dogs bark the loudest" putdown died, and Lefsetz' closing rant that "everyone knows the internet better than Gene" got a big laugh. the quips about Lefsetz' name and appearance were lame.

but Simmons did have a point about Lefsetz' qualifications- who is he, and what has he achieved?

funny stuff - a battle of 2 irrepressible loudmouths.

i would argue that achievements are not the point........a professor need not participate in a war to write about it,tho experience is an asset......it seems to me that gene is being called on his shameless self promotion and qualified or not the other guy has a point......as far as his arrogance goes gene's fans will let that slide ......because they are fans.....but as other celebs have learned that can change
