Why is Doyle Brunson considered to be so good?

He won 2 Main Events and has around 10 bracelets but there was only about 10 people back then. In the main event he just calls every bet when he is dominated. I think the new generation of poker players is going to dominate his passive playing style. He is just way too passive to keep up with aggression of the newer players. I am watching the main event now and it is sad to watch, he is nothing but a calling station. He may be the most over-rated player ever!

I have only played in one but I at least have a shot to win a main event. Doyle is pretty much just giving his money away in these things. He would get run over if he was at the same table with me or other online players.
