Contradicts himself all over the place - can't keep his story straight. E.g. in Vana Parva, he has Balarama supporting the Pandavas, in Udyog Parva, he has Balarama opposing the war and being neutral, and in Shalya Parva, after Balarama arrives at the Bhimyodhan battle spot, he claims that b4 the war, Balarama had urged Krishna to support the Kauravas. Just 1 example.
Of course, we had all our citation wars in the MB b'cos Vyasa couldn't keep his story straight. If any author or poet did that, he'd be rightly ridiculed. Of course, since some Vaishnavas think that he's another avatar of Vishnu, one can't say a word against him despite all the BS that he wrote.
Also, after he blasphemes Mahadev by claiming that Ashwatthama was his ansh - despite Shaivya sources having no such endorsement, I don't respect him one bit.
