David Einhorn Liked Dave Kingman

Aspiring Mets minority owner David Einhorn once looked like this …

As the WSJ explains, Einhorn, as a doe-eyed tike, was an admirer of Dave Kingman, and once he took a marker one of his dad’s Beefy-T’s and transformed it — cadabra, but first abra — into a Kingman jersey. And a fine number 26 it was!

That’s a cute, humanizing story and all, but if I’m Lord New York Media, I’m asking Mr. Einhorn why he tacitly supports possibly exposing innocent sportswriters to the deadly and rodent-borne Hantavirus.
