he plays for the Yankees, swings like a fucking pussy, and.. that's all I got. I don't dislike him, but there's a reason the team is called the "Evil Empire" pretty much everywhere that isn't NY 7/13/2010 10:16:29 AM |

^^if you don't like Jeter you don't baseball. Don't be a fag he's one of the best athletic role models out of any sport today. Go pull that dildo out of your ass you'll feel better.

maybe b/c nobody believes that MJ is dead.
Ah yes, the Evil Empire...b/c they actually had a team owner with the balls and money to make his team more successful than any other.

Not true at all.
Jeter is basically New York's Chipper Jones, and I hate Chipper Jones.
I like Jeter, mainly for the fact that he understands you can sleep with dozens of beautiful women and never get any flack for it as long as you don't fuck up and get married.
He's living the dream and I'm incredibly jealous of his lifestyle.7/13/2010 10:33:31 AM |

I don't like Jeter, and have never liked him, simply because he plays for the Yankees
Now, if you don't feel strongly about the Yankees, THEN perhaps you're not a very big baseball fan
but I would actually expect more people to dislike Jeter than to like him, for the simple reason that more people hate the Yankees.

Just to reiterate, Jeter is the second best SS on the Yankees (both offensively and defensively) He has no range at all and he never has, and he is decent offensively at best. He may "hustle" but that doesnt make up for his awful range. I agree with he chipper comment, he is a good player who has played the game right and stayed with his loyal fans. Very good player: yes Great player: prob not
It is kind of obsurd that the Yankees dont pick up a true third baseman(easier to find a good power hitting 3B than a good power hitting SS) and move Arod back to SS where he belongs. I know the Yankee faithful would never go for this move, but the way the Yankees buy up all the talent, it would seem to be the logical move.

120 OPS+, 3,000+ career hits, 1,100 + RBI, a lifetime .315 average and five rings (not to mention an .863 postseason OPS).
Lock first ballot hall of famer. If a first ballot HOFer is not a "great player" to you then maybe your standards are a bit high.

My second round pick is Edgar Martinez.
Quote : | "Edgar was one of the finest hitters of all time period. The Graphic above by Bert Chiu shows Edgar with Ted Williams, Babe Ruth, Stan Musial, Rogers Hornsby, and Lou Gehrig. Edgar and those 5 Hall of Famers are the only players in history to have a batting average of .300 or more, on-base percentage of .400 or more, a slugging percentage of .500 or more, 2000 hits, 300 home runs, 500 doubles, and 1000 walks." |

meh, with a great offensive player, you can often take the intersection of a bunch of hitting achievements and put your player in legendary company
it doesn't mean he belongs there
Edgar Martinez probably deserves the Hall of Fame, but he does NOT deserve to be in that picture. Every one of those guys has achieved things which make this
