It's clear AROD was super jealous of Jeter and I don't blame Derek from distancing himself from AROD.

[NotSoProGamers]

Is the documentary gonna include him ruining the marlins? lol

DEREK JETER is my Favorite Yankee.
He was the total package ..that's why he is beloved in NY as the Captain..
A Rod had talent but it was an A hole and still is..I never respected him as a Man with morals and loyalty..
Jeter is the man.

Ufff... patiently waiting like them ex's DJ had waiting to get claimed.

[jerryjanik]

Derek Jeter is the o.j. Simpson Michael Jordan and the Tiger Woods of baseball without the controversy still believe he's overrated do tigers

[pauls]

Skip Baseless thinks that Derek Jeter did steroids. I want to if he will touch that subject.
