Can someone let me in on why everyone dislikes SA? I don't have an opinion one way or another...but I'm very curious. Or is he just like Frankel? i.e. something about the guy just grates on you...

He's served MULTIPLE suspensions for drug violations, including 6 months or so in 2006. His horses ran in his assistant's (Scott Blasi) name for quite a while.
