The Second Coming

Posted on Tuesday, October 19, 2004 9:59 AM

I feel FOX should rename their station during October to DJN.  DJN stand for the “Derek Jeter Network.”  Joe Buck and the rest of FOX need to get the hell off Derek Jeter's nuts.  Seriously, every 2 minutes of the game I don't need a slow motion recap of Jeter's reaction to a foul ball or see how he's watching the game from the dugout.  I think FOX pays at least one camera man to stay on Jeter's balls for the entire game.  At least one.

We know he's a good player, we know he gets a lot of clutch hits, but please stop giving me a close up of his face from every angle possible, at every moment possible.

The MLB Playoffs on FOX suck.  The announcers are bad, the graphics are annoying, and they play that damn whizzing sound anytime something comes onto the screen.

to quote you, "relax!" Jeter's pretty good looking, so it's not that I, or most females, mind having him on screen. I could see where the males could get annoyed. Maybe they feel threatened by his dashing good looks and stellar baseball skills. If I were a guy, I'd be jealous as hell, and probably ranting about how much attention he receives. My advice to you, just sit back, crack a sammy light, and enjoy America's greatest past time. thank you.

the dick,

I'd say "you're welcome." But I'm not sure what you're thanking me for. I'm not knocking Derek's baseball skills or his "dashing" good looks. He is a good looking black/white guy and a tremendous shortstop. Granted, he's much more attractive than Hideki Matsui or Johnny Damon's mullet; I'd just like a little variety in my life. I would think the female population would share this outlook as well.

Matthew,

The "thank you" is just my style, no "you're welcome's" necessary. And yes, we all love a little variety (and Johnny Damon's mullet), but if they're going to pick one guy to obsessively chronicle throughout the game, they've picked a good man in Jeter. thank you again.

jeter is god. i would have gay sex with him. i think every single play he makes should be documented and placed in a time capsule so if we are ever swept from this earth, other life forms could bask in his glory.
i believe there should be an only jeter channel. like "ed TV." him eating, making love to various black and white females, and even crapping. ooooh, jeter crapping. i wish he could do that on my chest.

now that the sarcasm cant be laid on much more: Jeter's a fag. always will be. i've never seen a more blatant form of self promotion than when i went to a yankee game. he has his own section that call his name and he responds with a wink and a gun. only if the gun could be real and he could put it to his temple.

ouch.

Thank you,
HAM

DJ show, gross. I predict the most popular Halloween costume this year to be dressing like Johnny Damon, much like last year when everyone dressed like "that bartman fan who messed up the Cubs."

Bartman.

I love him and the billygoat.

Long live the curse!
