__________________________________________ Olbermann is a miserable raving maniacal leftwing lunatic who generally has a problem with all that is good and wholesome. He's already proven that with his stint on MS-LSD. He's also a Yankee bashing Jeter-hater. I had to chuckle when he brought up Miguel Tejada and Jimmy Rollins winning a MVP while Jeter never has. Olbermann suffered convenient amnesia as he failed to mention how Jeter's Yankees defeated Tejada's A's and Arod's Mariners in the playoffs AND Rollins' Phillies in the World Series. lmao ...oh, by the way, Rollins was also benched for not hustling. PEDS? Tejada? HELLOOOOOO..anybody there? Here's something for him gag on: (Stark article) One of the most special Jeter numbers of them all. Why? Because he’s the only man in history who ever got 200 hits in the postseason alone. Now obviously, he got several more opportunities to get those hits than, say, Ernie Banks. But let’s put this in better perspective. In 158 postseason games, roughly the equivalent of a full season, Jeter wound up with 200 hits, 20 homers, 18 steals, a .308 batting average, a .374 on-base percentage and an .838 OPS. So how many active players have ever had a regular season like that? Exactly five. And one of them is (guess who?) Derek Jeter. Who of course also had a "season" like that in October. Against the best teams and the best pitchers, in the most pressurized games of his life. Don't tell me that's overrated. Eat sh!t Olbermann.
...^^^ I got a chuckle out of his hand picked cherry picked stats to make Jeter look mediocre to bad. ...just goes to show, if someone tries hard enough, the can manufacture a way to justify just about anything they do or say.
Jeters credentials speak for themselves, he's still up while Tejada and Nomar came, got hyped as superior then disappeared. Olberman is always on the druggie players, didn't Tejada get popped a year or two ago.
____________________________________ Yep, they certainly can TRY and manufacture just about anything they say or do. I think Olbermann and some others out there (gee, I hate being so dam intelligent AND fair) look at Jeter and compare him to some other players who have won MVP awards, put up huge gaudy power numbers and/or have set records and say to themselves - "what's the big deal over Jeter". We'll all have Jeter's ABSOLUTELY GREAT career numbers to point at-...but they just don't get it when it comes to a player being "The Captain" of a multi-championship team. see-----------> Thurman Munson
Yep, indeed......I've seen People take totally horrid numbers, to twist, contort to make those bad numbers look good.... As well as the opposite, some peeps, twist numbers to make good numbers look bad.... Damn, am I glad I'm retired.....LOL...
Tom, are you eating Breakfasts at Denny's again....? (Grand Slam Breakfasts).... No more Breakfasts, at Tiffany's? LMAO....good to see ya'...
Indeed, its all Girardi's fault no doubt....LMFAO.... In fact, the lackluster performance of Natl. Economies, hell- Intl. too; it's all Joe's Fault..... I do believe A-Roid was mandated to take those PED Gummie's too....by Joe....! Every effing this is Joe's fault....increased crime, ISIS infiltration, even the Antarctic Ice Cap Melt-down; I know Joe called for as much....! "Damn the Torpedoes"....
Wham bam pour syrup on a clam Slam.... That order got me kicked out of a Denny's one morning after a pub crawl.
I don't doubt that...at all.... sounds like your one of a kind approach....in ordering...LMAO.... When I was 18 and a Denny's cook, rather slop server, I 86'd my Wife to be, (10 years later), when she danced on a table top, during a Graveyard Shift....! For Kim, it was a Drunken Prom gone awry; at Denny's....!
Olbermann mocked Jeter's leadership qualities - Jeter is 510 games over .500 - all time MLB record for a PLAYER. Hey Shmuklemann, you can't have it both ways....how about taking it one way? lol Hey clown, where's your big floppy shoes and tiny tricycle?
...I gotta believe Olbermann is simply taking the Skip Bayless route, which is to say outlandish shit just to stir up controversy, whether it has merit or not, and thus drawing attention to himself.
