14 time All Star, 5 time World Champ, 3,000+ hits, and a great teammate. All the while under the NY media scrutiny.

Yea, he was pretty solid and any team wouldve been glad to have him

“Derek has girls stay with him at his apartment in New York, and then he gets them a car to take them home the next day. Waiting in his car is a gift basket containing signed Jeter memorabilia, usually a signed baseball,” the friend dished.
“This summer, he ended up hooking up with a girl who he had hooked up with once before, but Jeter seemed to have forgotten about the first time and gave her the same identical parting gift, a gift basket with a signed Derek Jeter baseball,” the pal said.
“He basically gave her the same gift twice because he’d forgotten hooking up with her the first time!”
Jeter, who fiercely guards his privacy to protect his All-American image and multimillion-dollar marketability, split with the gorgeous actress Kelly this summer and has been playing the field ever since.

Hahaha. I want to try doing this.

I tend to agree. DJ was a great player and should be a hof'er. I do feel like he's over rated though.

I have also said on this forum for years that Ted Simmons is the most underrated player in baseball history .

If someone can look that up I have proof .

Just incredibly ironic that both the most underrated and overrated player in baseball history gets inducted in the same season .

I agree on Ted Simmons. Very under rated player.

Why the gift basket?

In what world does that work?

In a girls mind, they just know he plays pro baseball. They don't know if he is triple A or an All star.

Especially in baseball.

In 2009 I took my young boys to Fenway to see them play the Yankees. The game was sold out and I paid scalpers high dollar to get good seats.

Jeter hit the first pitch of the game literally out of the park.

I turned to my boys and said "well, you are watching a future hall of famer."

He was one of a few Yankees that I respected, Rivera was another.

Why didn't you respect the other guys?

It's laundry.
