Derek Jeter Strikeout Thread

[Mike Oxlodge]

Tino Martinez hits a game wining Home Run against Bun Yun Kim in 2001 WS, nothing, no clutch, no nothing. Jeter hits a solo HR to win the game off same scrub pitcher in same WS, a WS they lost, and Jeter hit .167.

"Mr November"

Fucking morons.

Remember Tim McCarver's famous quote?

"Jeter has the calmest pair of eyes under pressure I've ever seen in my life."

"The steely eyed glare of a true champion, we should name a cologne for him"

"Derek Jeter's 'intangibles' led to the fall of Communism."

 

[Mike Oxlodge]

Thats always my favorite.

"Jeter's intangibles separate him from all the other players"

 

[Mike Oxlodge]

Like most Jeter fans, they defend him more than their own families. He's the Yankees version of Tom Brady.

 

[HammerDown]

"Derek Jeter has a knack for elevating the play of his teammates."

Is it a coincidence that the Yankees hot streak is over once The Captain came back?

"This is when you'll see Jeter's "leadership skills" shine."

"need I remind me you guys who plays SS On this team and no one else? If me not moving for A-Rod wasnt a sign, you guys are clueless"

"Derek Jeter has successfully mapped the human genome."

The replay would conclusively show him guilty of nothing more than clumsily carrying his tools of ignorance into the kind of hustle play Jeter once heroically made against Oakland in the playoffs. But Jeter, anguished over the aborted start to the brand-new season, refused to grant Huckaby clemency on the matter of bad intention.
''He doesn't have my number,'' Jeter said the next day, offering his cold, dislocated shoulder to Huckaby's claim to reporters that he had left a message on Jeter's voice mail.
By the third and final day of the series, Huckaby decided to make his case face to face.
He took the long walk on the high road into the visitors' clubhouse, heading straight for Jeter's stall.
''I figured by then, the SportsHoopla was over, he must have looked at it on film,'' Huckaby said on the phone from Columbus. ''He had to know I was just making a play.''
Huckaby said he told Jeter: ''I did call. It must have been the wrong number.''
And: ''I'm sorry it happened. I hope you get back soon.''
Then he was standing there, prying Yankee eyes upon him, Jeter looking right at him and through him. Huckaby recalled tense, wordless moments, with no trace of Jeter's million-dollar smile or even a detectable change of facial expression.
He waited until he could stand there no more. ''I just turned around and walked out,'' he said.
Yesterday, in Cleveland, Jeter offered his version of the meeting to Tyler Kepner of The New York Times. ''He came over and apologized,'' Jeter said. ''He said, 'You all right?' I said, 'O.K.,' and that was it.''How comprehending, how forgiving and how unbecoming for a normally gracious player named Yankee captain earlier this season.

"Derek Jeter really invented baseball but his humanity dictated that Abner Doubleday get the credit."

Derek Jeter invented the cotton gin

No one has the balls to start one. You're all afraid of arousing Zig's ire.

"Derek Jeter's inning-ending double-plays are clutch as hell."

 

[Mike Oxlodge]

"FUCK YOU A-ROD, ITS DEREK'S TEAM"

 

[Mike Oxlodge]

They make Jeter Captain, they get 1 WS win out of the deal. They make Buster Posey captain, they win 2 already.

Posey>>>>>>>>Jeter

 

[HammerDown]

"What are you talking about? Derek Jeter has great range."

 

[obxyankeefan]

They make Jeter Captain, they get 1 WS win out of the deal. They make Buster Posey captain, they win 2 already.

Posey>>>>>>>>Jeter

So Jeter is better then any captain the Canucks have ever had?
