I hate the Yankees. I hate everything about them. I cannot stand them. But there were only two players that I admired on that team. Last year, Mariano Rivera had his farewell tour. This season, it’s Derek Jeter’s turn.

Watching him on the evil team sucked for me as he continuously gave the Oakland A’s fits, but he was a great hitter, a great defensive player and was a great teammate. He seems like a good guy and was a perfect fit for the Yankees. He was a great captain.

I will never let go of the flip in 2001, but I hate him for that because he’s so damn good. Thank you, DJ. I will make an effort to see you play one last time.
