I remember watching a Porntoy interview a while back where he said that he didn't want to be the main guy for SoA and deal with everything like he did before, that if this was to work as a band and his other projects, he'd have to have less responsibilities outside of the music.
As a basic rule, if you hate it, you must solely blame Portnoy. If it's good, then you must downplay MP's contribution to the band as not being important anyway, or claim he's just lying. It's the DTF way.

Anyway, I would be curious to see the interview where he said that specifically about SoA, because from what I recall, it was quite the opposite. While he was either a team player or just a drummer with everything else he did post-DT, at least in early interviews about SoA, he had commented about how much he had missed being in the driver's seat like he had with DT. So when he and Derek put SoA together, at least to some extent it was modeled after the roles MP and JP had in DT with MP heading more of the creative aspects with Derek heading up the business aspects.
