Spygate was both a political and personal crusade for Spector. He's been an Eagles season ticket holder for years and even goes (or used to go) on a sports radio show in Philly about the Eagles. Politically, he made a big deal about it because Philly is a sports crazed town and he knew it would be something that would get him in good with the voters.

Like 90% of all politicians, he doesn't do anything unless it improves his own situation.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio
