Derek Jeter Fractured Ankle Last Night In Game 1

Renegade · 10-14-2012, 09:01 PM

They lost to the Deroit Tigers. I have faith the Yankees can make a come back A-rod needs to step up and the other guys. I feel they can play better although things are looking bad for the Yank's down 2-0 in the series they need to dig deep and find that championship goal inside. At the end of the day it all comes down to who wants it the most and willing to go that extra mile to get it. Yankees going to go out swinging

Which team you going for? And what's your MLB team?

I read a story on this incident and thought i post this part.

Aging is as much an inevitability in sports as it is in life, and while age alone did not break Derek Jeter's ankle, it did made him more susceptible, more fragile. It is a testament to the greatness of Jeter, of Rivera, of Pettitte that their ages did not demand a recalibration of expectations. They had defied it this many years. What was another season?

Part of it was necessity, of course. The Yankees spit at age. Five players on their playoff roster were among the game's 30 oldest this season, and all played in Game 1. So spoiled were the Yankees by players doing uncommon things at retirement age, they simply came to expect it. Jeter bought into the idea of his own invincibility. Even with a broken ankle, he uttered these words to his manager and old teammate, Joe Girardi.
"Do not carry me."

I hate to say it you're right. Why pay these guys 100 million dollar contracts and not live up to the hype?

AZCamaroFan · 10-14-2012, 10:25 PM

plus you get someone like Texiera...look at his numbers while playing in Texas...people aren't taking the ballpark into account enough.
