Am I Asking Too Much?

When I read sports articles - I like to read about sports. It bugs me to no end when sportswriters insert their political views into articles that have absolutely nothing to do with politics. Take the recent offering from Jon Heyman - emphasis added:

The idea he [Bobby Valentine] can't get along with bosses, though, is debunked by the reality that his GM in Texas, Tom Grieve, loves Valentine. And apparently so do the ownership groups from Texas (Valentine was still friendly with George W. Bush even after Bush fired him) and obviously Chiba Lotte. It's less clear how the Mets' bosses feel, though at least one member of the Wilpon family that owns the team regularly attends Bobby Valentine's Sports Academy in Stamford, Conn. Valentine even supported his old boss Bush for president, which only goes to show that nobody's perfect.

OK - we get it. Heyman's not a fan of the President but who cares what his politics are? Is it ego that makes writers slide these things into their pieces? And speaking of nobody being perfect - Heyman was the guy who wrote that A-Rod was going to sign with the Giants.Only goes to show that nobody's perfect.
