An old friend, no longer known as Revis Island, returns to MetLife Stadium on Sunday with the Chiefs, in his familiar No. 24, and he deserves your cheers.
He was just another faded, old former star last season, admittedly too heavy for his own good, hampered in bump-and-run by a surgically repaired wrist, apparently weighed down by the $118,211,130 in career earnings in his pocket, who made a mockery of Forever Young.
It was the end of an Unhappy Homecoming.
But no one should want to remember Willie Mays at the end as a Met, no one should want to remember Broadway Joe limping around Shea Stadium in 1976.
