Remember the “R.A. Dickey is a self-promoter” meme from December? That was crystallized in this Ken Davidoff column in the New York Post?
Dickey can be a handful. He clearly has enjoyed his rise from the ashes into a Flushing folk hero, and while he deserves praise and riches, there’s also the matter of him having to coexist peacefully in a workplace. His gift for self-promotion and his love of attention don’t endear himself to most teammates.

Well, that egocentric self-promoter is at it again!

Heading to India tomorrow with my girls to work with the Bombay Teen Challenge, an organization that rescues girls from human trafficking.

Please pray for us and our trip. That these women would see that there is a different way to live. That we would be able to serve in a way..
