Daniel N. lacks pure poker skills?

Warning, I don't like how DN makes fun of people and think he's a prejudiced dkhead. This may have biased my opinion of him.

Edit: Daniel, if you read this Patrick A/David B would pwn you anywhere, challenge them to live HU freezeouts for my viewing pleasure please.

After reading Daniel Negraneu's blog on cardplayer (copied below), coupled with his 'LAP' play and inability to fold on HSP season 2, I've come to the conclusion that he doesn't understand poker at near the level of Phil, Barry, and other winning live players (despite donkament wins, I'd put Phil Laak above him). Do you think he's any good compared to average winning online player or do you agree with his analysis, that he's too "distracted" to win. We all know there are many nuances to poker other than 'live tells' (ie betting patterns/position actions).
