Derek Jeter

He respects him. But he doesn't like him.

Probably not Jeter's favorite birthday gift ever.

In his eighth time on the ballot, the Sox great was again shutout of Cooperstown.

Tom Brady was at the University of Michigan's National Signing Day event today and he ran into former Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter. It didn't take long for Brady to tell Jeter that the Pats 'blew it' in the AFC Championship game.

Was there any doubt this was how it was going to go down last night? Let's be honest here.

It's about time someone stood up and shouted at the top of their lungs, "Derek Jeter is NOT the best baseball player of all time" and "this year long hurricane of self promotion in the form of a retirement party has to end."

Over this next week, 'The Captain' Derek Jeter's retirement ceremonies will be sickening at best for dyed in the wool Sox fans like myself. Since I have as many crackpot theories as Jeter has crappy parting gifts from other Major League ballclubs, I'll use the technological power of split screen photography and try to prove one of the wackiest in my arsenal.
