The idea of Dickey somehow damaging the Mets, or their nonexistent clubhouse dynamic, through his TV appearances or whatever other supposedly self-indulgent activities filled his social calendar is silly.

In Dickey’s case, he was always around to chat, and when the waves of reporters showed up at his locker this season, they usually asked him about one topic: R.A. Dickey. It’s a subject he knows pretty well, and was more than happy to expound on.
via R.A. Dickey and Mets went from knuckleball bliss to a nasty split.
