Around SBN: Jeremy Lin Continues Rampage, New York Wins On Road

A Modest Question For Readers

by Jonathan Willis on Oct 14, 2008 7:31 AM MDT

On September 22nd, Adam Proteau of The Hockey News spent the majority of his column (ie, all but one sentence) discussing Mike Richter's possible foray into politics and his political views.

My question: Does his October 11th column, criticizing Ed Snider and the Philadelphia Flyers for allowing hockey to be used as "a political backdrop" strike anyone else as hypocritical?

Because it seems to me that he can't really have it both ways.

Well, it's not like Mike Richter can remove it from his past. The question is - is he exploiting it?
