Derek Jeter is the most arrogant, selfish player in baseball hands down

must be a redsox fan papi is most overrated player ever

**shermanator** · 07-10-11, 11:56 AM

ive never liked jeter

**JDUB07** · 07-10-11, 12:18 PM

Most of what you said is probably true but I don't agree that AROD would just sign a blank check over for his 3,000th hit. Give me a break.

Are you guys serious with this how many championships does Derek Jeter have?

You replace him with Michael Young and they still probably have won those championships.

He has never ever been the feared hitter on the yankees lineup. Bernie, O'Neil, Tino back in the late 90s and Mo, Andy were the real reason the yankees won those titles. I just can't believe how many of you keep talking about how many championship rings he has. This isn't basketball where one person can make a team and what is funny is Jeter has never been the best player in his team once in an entire year.

They won 5 championships then why he does he only have 1 World Series MVP then?

I respect Derek Jeter. He got a good personality.

There are just some young greedy fuks who think cashing in is the answer. Those are the guys who would throw their own grandmothers under a bus for insurance money....good luck to some of you because you'll need it

Wait until that fatass has to pay taxes on 100k next year after he gives all the tickets away !

He better sell a good number of those tickets for that liability.

The guy isnt gonna have to claim 100k in income. Just Relax.

**beeney24** · 07-10-11, 12:41 PM

actually jet is a cool dude- laid back and not arrogant at all...he plays the game the right way, lead the yankees over the past 15 years and has done it in the most difficult venue-- much respect to jet from beandog

**Hawk007** · 07-10-11, 12:41 PM

Dynamite, you have no clue.

Jeters one if the best team players in baseball, hands down.

Are you sure about that ?

I thought when you win something like this it is taxable, like a gameshow, lottery, etc.

It can be sold for some cash, so I see it as like winning a new car on a game show= taxable.

I'm no CPA, though !

**james4512** · 07-10-11, 12:56 PM

I'm a die hard yankee fan HUGE jeter fan love everything about the yankees. If I caught the ball Min i sell it for is 2 million dollars or a weekend in cabo with jeters girl minka kelly

**Doug** · 07-10-11, 01:10 PM

The ball isn't worth 2M, IMO. I'm thinking more like 200-500k but I can't accurately value something like this. I don't these type of balls are a great investment.

Does Jeter now own it ? He should give it to the HOF.

2 Million for a weekend with any woman is insane unless you are worth like 100 million +. I'm sure you could buy a 10* Hooker or 2-3 for a fraction of that cost. She's pretty but certainly no better than a random Playmate from the last few years or your pick of a college cheerleader from a place like UCLA, FSU, or whatever.

Really 100k should get you a private weekend orgy with 2 broads that are as hot as Minka or better.

**jjgold** · 07-10-11, 01:13 PM

Jeter is a cheap jerkoff

He gave guy nothing

Phony

**yisman** · 07-10-11, 01:13 PM

Is Jeter related to nocoin?

**jjgold** · 07-10-11, 01:20 PM

Jeter not the type of guy you would have good time with

Corporate
Stiff suit
No personality
Cheap

KC · 07-10-11, 01:48 PM

Met him once, he helicoptered in to Belmont Park to shoot a commercial, he basically ignored people and kept to himself

**Smush Parker** · 07-10-11, 01:52 PM

He should have sold the ball.

I would say it could have gone as high as 5 million, the first time ever a yankee hits for 3k hits, the face of the biggest baseball franchise, one of the most popular players in the history of baseball. I would think the steinbrenners would buy it at any cost to be honest

**success** · 07-10-11, 02:14 PM

It's all a show when athletes appear to "care" about the fans. In reality none of them do,It's just who is a good actor at it. Any one who is a real "fan" is a moron.

**Wreckloose** · 07-10-11, 02:15 PM

I don't like Jeter or the Yankees but I don't know that I agree with this.

**jjgold** · 07-10-11, 02:25 PM

Jeter did not five guy a dime yet

Will he?

**Doug** · 07-10-11, 02:29 PM

I can't see 5M, that seems insane. Isn't the 750k the record on Bond's ball ?

I'm thinking more like 500k, maybe 350k after commissions then taxes might take that down to 225-250k. It's still a house in many markets.

lol why should jeter have to pay for a baseball he hit...you guys are out of your mind. and yea jeter wasnt the most feared player on the team ,but like u said baseball is a team sport, he was part of the championship team and played a big role for the team, his 5 rings do have value come on now.

**yisman** · 07-10-11, 07:31 PM

Dude is now sitting out the all star game.

**face** · 07-10-11, 07:35 PM

jeter is the best baseball player in the last 15 years.

So you really think he's better than ARod, Bonds, Griffey, and Pujols? Better than Pedro, Randy Johnson, and Maddux?

Just a few guys who were better, there are a handful more

You Jeter haters crack me up.
Jeter's been in 7 WS, has 5 rings.
Know what his batting average is in those 7 WS (38 games - 156 at bats)
Just World Series games I'm talking he's 50-156 .321

Here's a list of some of those World Series opposing pitchers he's faced.

Ready?

Greg Maddux
Tom Glavine
John Smoltz
Curt Schilling
Randy Johnson
Josh Beckett
Cole Hamels
Cliff Lee

.321 in 156 at bats in the highest profile, most pressure packed WS games

Most hitters would give their left nut to hit .240 in 156 at bats against those 8 in meaningless June games.

37 Singles

Yea... playing in 7 world series with 38 games played... you know how many RBI's he got? 9 RBI'S

Hitting slap singles and always top on the league into hitting into double plays

Ichiro is a better all around player than Jeter. Every year 200+ hits and one of the top outfielders year in and year out. Jeter has never been the best shortstop ever in each of his 15 years except maybe 2004. I don't know where you guys get the idea Jeter is the best baseball player ever.
