What a crock of s**t... Even if a teacher has skills, he shouldn't pander with lineages he doesn't have. I read this and I remembered one time in Puerto Rico I met a guy from Kentucky who said he studied BBJ with one of the Gracie brothers who had a school in Kentucky. As far as I know there are no Gracie brothers living or teaching there. I asked the name of the teacher and the guy said his teacher was "John Gracie." I said I never heard of any brother named John and he said that oh no, he was in fact one of their brothers, and his dojo was covered with their pictures to prove it!
