Pretty cool to reach a milestone on a home run at home. Good on him for giving the crowd something extra to cheer at.

?? you really want to bait me into an anti-jeter rant into this thread? everyone and their dog knew he was going to get 3000 hits. well, fuck it, here goes.

hes still a one dimensional player who doesnt hit for production and cant field his position efficiently. and he has herpes (seriously)... congratulations. you turned a milestone thread into a pissing contest.

youve made yankee fans everywhere happy. more happy then derek jeters .257 batting average can anyways. hmm.. i wonder if his sudden drop in productivity can be attributed to from coming off of steroids. stay tuned!

you reap what you sew.

Stop tainting my thread.

for the record, ill say it again. good for jeter. i cant take away his 3003 hits.

what i find insane though, is through all the talent that has played in a yankees uniform... hes the only 1 to hit 3,000 hits? no mantle? gehrig? dimaggio? very odd, IMO.

Omg you are so butthurt over this.. The guy is 37 and played for 17 years. And one dimesional player? WTF lol He has multiple gold gloves and has over a .300 career batting average and 4 silver slugger awards... Know your shit before you start spewing it. my god dude.

Or Ruth, the Yankees' all time batting average leader and one of the best players of all time. 2,873.

I find it funny that a guy with .977 lifetime fielding percentage isn't a good fielder. Its also really easy to bash someone on the down end of their career, even though he is the starting shortstop at 37 years old for the most winning franchise in Major League Baseball. I watch every Yankee game and hardly ever do I see Jeter out there and think man, I want someone else out there right now. Hate him all you want but he plays his position well and better than most at 37 then alot do in their prime.
