I don't post much but I have to comment on this. My husband (SouthBeachLuv) and I met Andy at Saratoga last year and he was incredibly kind. We had visited Belmont Park the day before heading up to Saratoga and he ensured that we had a wonderful time at both tracks (it had been a longtime dream of mine to visit Ruffian's grave, and thanks to Andy, I was able to do so).

Andy's online persona may be harsh, but so what? It's who you are in person that matters, and he's a stand-up guy.
