Why read it?

Two-time Olympic Men’s Gold Medalist Dick Button is a genius. That’s it, full stop. I had the privilege of working with Dick both at ABC Sports and when I produced his Twitter commentary of the 2014 Olympics. Anything Dick Button has to say about figure skating, past, present, and future, you want to hear it. And read it. You don’t have to like it. You don’t have to agree with it. But you do have to hear it. If you consider yourself a true figure skating fan. And want anyone to take your opinions seriously.

From Alina's list on figure skating and its scandals.
