but i think it's bizarre that he gets tons of grief, with what-two positives now, one for an antiboiotic, the other for a level now legal? meanwhile, the man with 13 X's more the positives is said to be the eclipse fave, and no one says a thing.
He's held to his own standard because he's the poster boy for racing. If he walked through a crowd at Saratoga 90% of racing fans would know who he is. Gary Sherlock has won just as many G1's this year as Todd but no one would know who he is. It'd be like a revelation that Tiger Woods uses steroids or illegal golf balls.

You know that Assman is universally reviled on this board and pretty much everywhere else.
