Blog: The Two Keiths

At Faith and Fear in Flushing, Greg Prince compares today’s cartoonish, ‘post-Seinfeld’ Keith Hernandez to the ‘pre-Seinfeld’ version who played for the Mets.

i understand what greg is saying…i just assume that keith defeated many of the demons that troubled him during his younger days…and for that i am happy for him…i mean, sure, i miss the disturbed, serious, hard-working ball player from the 1980s, but i also miss seeing new episodes of Cheers every Thursday…things change, you know…which is why i just enjoy knowing that keith is happy, and just being himself…even if he is a bit goofy at timesfrankly, as long as he has the mustache and fur coat, which he does, he’s still an icon to me…
