I think that TAP takes more grief on discussion boards such as this because of the media's portrayal of him as racing's "golden boy," while the Asmussens and Dutrows of the game are never portrayed in that light. I think what you are reading here is that, for a variety of reasons (often different from person to person), several individuals don't think that TAP's "golden boy" image is deserved.
