By all accounts, he's a hard worker and an affable guy.

What he hasn't handled well is failure and most of the time when that happens, it's human nature to blame someone else.

I root for Jeff to succeed in life and I also think it would be quite funny if he wound up with a world series ring. At the end of the day, he's just a hothead with a sense of entitlement who is otherwise very, very well intended. There are worse things to be in life.

I think part of it is that he's very accessable to media, so the press likes to emphasize the affable aspects of his personality. - musubi Oct 14, 14:13
