Required reading for Sports Writers... The Official Rules of Baseball and The Bible!


I wasn't going to comment on this whole Jeter thing because nobody in Boston was saying boo. But then Bob Ryan threw together an article taken from every other sports writer in the world and bashed Jeter. Mantle was a drunk and a womanizer, Ruth was drunk and a womanizer, Boggs cheated on his wife, Cobb was rabid racist, Marchial charged the mound with a bat, and Jeter, faked getting hit by a pitch!
ARE YOU KIDDING ME???
Oh Derek Jeter, holy than thou, since when? Sure he's the face of the franchise, first ballot hall of famer, gamer, but when have we hoisted him up beyond error?
If you've ever played the game of baseball you take whatever you can get from the umpire, that's a fact, that's what you do in baseball. Especially when the game is on the line, come on, that's baseball 101.
This is the last thing I'll say about this... People found an opening in Jeter, he's having a somewhat off year, now they just bash, bash, bash.
I was forced to write this, I didn't want to say shit about this because every article you read about this is a sign of a lazy writer. Your story is written for you, throw in a moral angle and you're done. What's with this moral angle by the way? Since when are all the sports writers in the world suddenly following Glenn Beck?
This is pathetic, and I'm sorry I wasted your time.

Maybe if A-Rod had done the same thing Wednesday night, he would've gotten on base, and the Yankees might have won.

Of course, if a BOSTON RED SOCK -- say, Dustin Pedroia or Jacoby Ellsbury or that tush-waggling Kevin Youkilis -- had done it, he would be praised by all and sundry for taking one for the team, because, after all, they are goodness and light, while we are The Evil Empire. As they say in England, that's a load of bollocks!
