Maxman Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 Hard to believe with all of the talent the Yankees have had over the years they've never had a 3,000 hitter. It is amazing actually... He is at 2,999 right now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeter is up to .270, hopefully this was a sign of good things to come from him in the 2nd half. He looked good today, now that 3,000 is behind him, he can relax a bit.

T0mShane Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 The kid who gave the ball back for free should be put on suicide watch. In the paper today, next to the kud's interview, is a sidebar talking about everything--the bases, lineup card, on-deck circle mat, dirt--that Steiner Sports is planning on selling. Some of it is signed by Jeter, who is apparently debating whether or not to sell his jock as well. That kid is a ******* rube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True although the Yankees security and brass whisked him to a office in no time asking what he wanted for the ball. I expect or would hope that some combo of Jeter, the Yanks or Jeters advertising contracts will do something money or job wise for the kid. I heard him on WFAN this morning saying he has 200k in student loans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankee brass rushed him into a suite, talked to him about luxury boxes and meeting Derek and--all of a sudden--the ball fell out of his hands. He's got to be dying today.

I heard him on WFAN this morning saying he has 200k in student loans. Agree but his father was with him to guide him and I have to tell you my son and I talked about the possibility of catching of the ball before the game. Ironically we were 15ft from the kid in the LF seats. There would have been some money involved if I caught it or the ball would have went home with me. The Yankees can afford it, Derek Jeter can afford it and so can the Hall of Fame. Jeter needs to write the kid a check for $250k and end it.

Klecko73isGod Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 We're talking about Derek Jeter...one of the best ever At a time he should be celebrated, you continue with little pot shots, when in truth you were hoping and praying David Wright was your Jeter. Nope, guess we have to keep waiting for the next great Met, while Yankee fans have another all timer we can all be proud of Was there a first?

He's either getting paid by Jeter or the Yanks under the table or he's one of the dumbest people on earth. I can just see that scum of the earth Randy Levine pulling something ridiculous with this kid and not feeling an ounce bad about it. I dont know what he was thinking though.
