The funny thing is, Goody's style is not really 'viable' at the pro level. Even if he had better macro, it doesn't matter. Because his 'style' is all based on defense so macro doesn't matter as much as long as you get max. Eventhough it makes the game 'look' close, it really isn't. Remember, Goody never had to move his army and go on creep. If the fights are on creep and you need to control moving the entire army, it looks totally different.
It is like a soccer team playing all 10 man as defenders, they might only lose 2-0 to a superior team. But they will always lose. You can't really say "Well, if they learned to score a couple goals, they can win". But remember to get the goals, they would have to commit players going forward, thus weakening their defense and they can lose 4-0, 5-0/

If I am not allowed to state my opinion then I suppose posting on TL is not the right place for me. These are some of my first posts because I figured I would end up getting in senseless arguments (like this one  ) but I have been reading things here and following the pro scene fairly constantly since the beta. Also, you are pretty aggressive yourself seeing as I'm also masters, 950 points. You can state your opponent as well as I am. But not insulting or offend people. im just going to assume you are also mechanically horrible at the game and cling to goody as the player most like yourself what is this? if not insulting the one you are talking to?
I am gonna stop response to any of your further comments. Just have fun watching this awesome events .

As long as he manges it to defeat players like Socke, Hasu or Monchi he is fine.

you can go back a few pages to see that I already admitted that I believed that sentence to be too harsh
EDIT: being completely serious and as non-offensive as possible here, thats one of the few reasons I would see for people enjoying Goody's play, the fact that lots of people can relate to not having pro level mechanics and seeing someone do somewhat well without them

In the options you can switch it to a one month pass without additional seasons.

This is true to some extent, but also remember that maps have a big part of this. There is a reason that this style is so very strong on Metropolis, and that Goody can defeat Stephano on it.
Mvp even did it against a protoss, and would've won if he had scouted the mothership and not had his BC's clumped up.
Also nice analogy

Yes, he will pick up wins here and there. But I don't think you can really make deep runs in tournaments just using this style. You can probably pick up some wins using blind all-ins as well. So I think that is fine. It is not like he is winning tournaments left and right with poor mechanics (that would be imbalanced). He can pick up wins here and there with an unique style, good for him.
I am just try to show people that are going "If Goody had better macro, he would be a dominate player".

Ooops Mana is doing a good job in this game 2 vs TLO. Hope TLO can hold on in the next Protoss push.
