If a Yankee had Hank Aaron’s numbers, they’d have torn down the Statue of Liberty and built a big statue of Hank.
Heh.
Ruth basically did have his numbers. I just saw the Lady the other day. She looks fine to me. 
Walter Windchill: Look Jeter did not win, Justin Morneau did. Do you need to give Jeter a hard time when he says everything right and does everything right and plays the game right? You do not have to like him, but how do you not respect him at least? Is he not everything we want our star athletes to be? You sound like you would be happier if he complained about being denied his trinket and put his own accomplishments ahead of the teams. We have hundreds of others stars like that in sports. Be thankful for stars like Jeter and the Tom Brady who play the game right, say the right thing and actually appear to be role models for kids to look up to.

WTF? I don’t think pointing out he’s got a hot girlfriend is giving him a hard time.
Oh, ok, I guess I misinterpreted your remarks. I am sorry. You seem very negative about the Yankee Captain in this thread. Did I misread that?
Jim
He already had a “house”! 
FWIW- I like Jeter and was disappointed he didn’t get the MVP.
But personally, I think Jessica Biel is overrated. Total B-Lister. She should date a player from Kansas City or Toronto.
Jeter is a Yankee. He should be dating A-List “talent” like Scarlett Johansson or Kiera Knightly.
Heck, I hear Reese Witherspoon is a free agent. She’s like the Jeter of hottie actresses. Lot of intangibles. 
As the fan of one of the other 29 teams in baseball, I get tired of Yankeephilia and the tongue baths Jeter is given by broadcasters and so forth… he’s dominated conversations even when the Yankees aren’t playing. That doesn’t mean I dislike Jeter himself. He signed an autograph for my friend’s kid once and was nice to the kid.
Okay, I think I understand. You hate the hype from the idiots, I assume especially the Fox idiots, but you respect the man. That is all I can ask for. I sincerely apologize. I did not understand that.
Jim
If Jeter started dating Kiera Knightly my head just might explode.
She’s one of the few women on this planet I consider hotter than my gf.
