Not to derail LA's well discussion here, but I'd just chime in and say that I'm a person of principal as well, and I hate SSers as much as the next guy.  But in the real world you really need to pick your battles -- would you take food out of your family's mouth over such a relatively minor principal?  I'm not talking a big principal, like cheating or stealing or other illegal/immoral/unethical situations, but basically what amounts to a personal bias against a certain practice (SSing, in this case).

While SSing is annoying to most of us, it's still a legal and arguably legit strategy that, thus far, is tolerated by the sites.  I suspect that FT (and potentially PS) addressed the SS situation as they've done simply due to the outcry from a lot of reg/deep players.  They didn't actually ban SSers, they just gave 'em their own sandbox to play in, so it's not like any of the sites are making a statement that SSers are unwelcome.  They just don't want their deeper stacked regs (and rake generators) to leave over it, nor do they want to lose SSer revenue either, so they made some arrangements to try and appease everyone.

My point being, despite LA's hate for SSers, I don't see how taking a career boosting, lucrative position with Stars means that he's a "sell out."  Now if he were going to work for Absolute Poker/Ultimatebet, that might be a different story, but here I think it's just not an issue.

Just my opinion, obviously, and I respect everyone elses.  ;)
