Wilbon Singing At Wrigley A Conflict Of Interest?
Michael Wilbon, PTI luminary and semi-confused derider of blogs, was also something else entirely: a newspaperman. Before ESPN made him a star, Wilbon had graduated to columns, sure, but he was still hacking it around like so many other print journalists, upholding rituals as old as the newspaper itself.
Among those? No cheering in the press box. There’s even a book with that as its title. But what about singing “Take Me Out to the Ball Game?” That’s what Wilbon did at Wrigley Sunday night, and he feels weird about it.
