Woods is so weird. He starts out with the tough guy "say it to my face" and immediately goes to the beta "so I can sue you" move. Kinda pussy.

somewhat agree, but also think he is the kinda old school Hollywood guy that would call up some sort of Ray Donovan fixer and get somebody fucked up if he wanted to. guarantee he was snoring coke with some dangerous motherfuckers in the 80's and probably still has connections
I wonder if he will continue to have an occasional presence on Family Guy (even via his name on "James Woods High School").
Clearly he has been friends with Seth MacFarlane for awhile, but Seth has long been bothered by this sexual harassment culture in Hollywood, working in jabs against likely-guilty parties long before these headlines came out.
Will he continue to feature Woods despite that?
(I don't care either way, but it's something I'm wondering.)
honestly? thats a good question.... even the faintest whiff of inappropriate conduct is supertoxic right now, you could well be right. that said he hasnt been on the show for a solid year, its possible mcfarlane grew tired of him before this shitstorm made landfall.
id genuinely like to hear mcfarlanes 'official position' here, but of course i doubt we ever will.

Good luck in getting Daniel Negreanu fired from PokerStars.
He's probably the most important member of Team PokerStars having earned over $50 million in the past 10 years.
Well... Daniel really poked a sleeping bear with this one.
That's the problem when you antagonize an outspoken celebrity like Woods who doesn't seem to give a shit if he angers people. He's got a ton of followers and will start hammering you with things like this, and you need to be prepared for the onslaught of haters.
The problem is that outspoken, "say whatever I think" Daniel is constantly doing battle with "calm, positive, happy, Choice Center" Daniel.
Daniel brings a lot of positives to the table. Great poker player. Outgoing personality. Great ambassador for poker. Very nice and friendly to all fans. No shady history. Willingness to speak up about wrongs.
Unfortunately, the one area he's always lacked has been his sense of self. He's bounced from one fad and personal philosophy to another, and always seems to be looking for the next thing to latch onto. I believe his attraction to Choice Center came at a vulnerable time when his mother died, and he felt that nobody in the world truly loved him anymore. (He had no romantic relationship, no parents anymore, and his one sibling didn't get along with him.)
I think Daniel believes he found inner peace from Choice Center, but in reality it just force-established a personality type into him which is at odds with his natural one, hence the consistently inconsistent behavior.
With all of that said, I like Daniel for the reasons stated above, and think he's great for poker.
id say daniel is possibly the only old-school poker pro left standing who isnt a toxic asset.
that said, his relationship non-history narrows options to 'scared to suck a dick and get it over with' or 'pays to btk kidnapped third world children in a soundproof shipping container in the woods'.
also his HSP losing streaks were the finest poker television ever broadcast.

I absolutely agree with this.
95% of the time, the conditioned, socially appropriate, funny and humble Daniel is present. He’s the guy I admire and root for. Unfortunately, the other 5% of the time, the douche-nozzle with the frosted tips and overflowing testosterone shows up and runs his mouth.
I'm sure James Woods wishes Daniel Negreanu was the Bellagio robber.
He's doing such a great job proving Negreanu is a racist piece of shit.
PokerStars is getting ready to fire Daniel any moment now.
Mel Gibson is ready to hire James Woods to play a pedophile in his next movie.

he should have whipped out his cock and tripped the robber
Shouldn't Woods, even though he's miffed at Daniel, defend the video and the Rasta costume? Woods is all "anti-snowflake" and "pc culture is ruining America", but the first chance he gets he going to tattle on someone? Damn. This is just another example that right wing nuts are the most sensitive people in the world. Sad! Daniel is a total clown, but Woods trying to get him fired because James' little feelings are hurt is chef kisses fingers.
