WHY? Is it:

Because he's lost 9 of his last 10 arbitration cases?

Because he advised Kevin Millwood to turn down a 5 year $75 million contract & now the best Millwood can do is to accept arbitration from the Phillies?

Because he told Pudge Rodriguez he'll get him a 4 year $40 million contract & won't even sniff half of that?

Because he alienates EVERY team he negotiates with & reporter he talks to with his arrogant personality & blackmailing tactics?

Because he consistently uses his clients to grandstand & seek publicity for the greater good of himself?

Boras has been a GREAT recruiter. To call him a great Agent is an entirely different matter. If it were my kid, I wouldn't let Boras represent him if Scott paid him instead of him paying Scott.
