Posted this in a thread earlier, but figured Id share. Im a Mets fan. Tom Seaver was my hero as a kid. Someone once told me my windup made me look like Tom Seaver. Never forget it. And as a Mets fans, I dont like the Yankees. But I cant help but love Derek Jeter and everything he stands for, and has stood for, for 20 seasons. He has won no MVP awards, but only because voters look at numbers, not impact. Derek Jeter has been the captain of a Yankees team that has won five championships? Others have hit more home runs, driven in more runs, and scored more. Others have better range at SS. No one, though, has ever been a bigger presence on a team for all the right reasons, and while Seaver has the largest percentage of first-ballot votes in history, if Jeter doesnt pass him, people arent, and havent been, paying attention.
