I'm totally Pinefoxed by this question.

― RickyT, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

They're calling Posh Jeets now?? For why?

― Tom, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Jeets, duh, and why are you stealing my name for Jeety-Weety? He's my man, only I can call him Jeets. Seriously though, Derek Jeter = fantastic looking nice bloke who gives to charity and plays with kids and makes more money than anyone, even Oprah and had the sense to dump unattractive pop tart. David Beckham = married unattractive pop tart, hello. Plus baseball totally better sport than soccer.

JEETS!

What did anyone think of "Burchill vs Beckham" anyway?

― Tom, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

What did anyone think of "Burchill ON Beckham" anyway?

Grrr typos.

And who left out the "(She Wishes)"?

― Tom, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Jeety-Weety

Are you sure that's your name for him, or just a part of him?

Yeah but Derek Jeter dresses like a mook. No, Brits, I do not mean that he dresses like a limp biscuit w/backwards baseball cap. I mean he wears like skin-tight black sweaters, gold necklace + bracelets, dark gray slacks and fucking wingtips. HOWEVA he is an ace ballplayer, which I suspect is same reason Man U hatas have some leeway in sympathy for their Becks boy as well

who's Jeter with now?

When did Mike Mussina join the Yankees? He's hot.

― Arthur, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

you like those aristos, huh? did you see how poorly he handled missing the perfect game by one pitch? crybaby.

― Tracer Hand, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I still haven't decided which Baseball team to support as my watching can only be fleeting due to the lateness of our coverage. I did have a slight affinity for the giants as I always liked the 49ers but I've decided that I don't like Barry Bonds so that's out the window, so, Americans, your task is to sell me your baseball team, and I will support the best one........

― chris, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Are you responding to me, Tracer? I don't know anything about him, except he was on some other team before. The Orioles, I think? Why's he an aristo? I was watching a game on TV with my mother in CT and I was getting all turned on. How embarrassing. I'm sorry I missed that crybaby moment.

― Arthur, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Mussina's always called out as the "thinking man's pitcher" because he went to an Ivy League school and doesn't have a good fastball. The Li'l Perfessor. But yeah - he's got those aqualine good looks and sharp cheekbones that look like they'd cut you if you got too close.

(note studious avoidance of suddenly-nightmarish playoff picture)

wingtips?

― m jemmeson, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Gus Poyet!

Which is basically a description of the best outfit ever, what's the matter with you?

― Ally, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Jeter envy.

― Tracer Hand, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Best outfit ever? Not if his wingtips have those silly little dots on 'em. Heh.

Jeter is fun to watch, though - Christ, the man leaped over the dugout railing after Bernie tied the game yesterday. Too bad the rest of the team is DULLLLL.

Ah, but I'm changing the topic again.

True story, as related to me by my brother. My brother's heading down to LA on Southwest airlines(!) and who happens to sit next to him but Derek Jeter. First thing my brother notices is how big he is. My brother wants to start talking to him, but doesn't know how to begin, so he turns to an article about Mariah Carey in People magazine or something. Jeter looks over and starts giggling, and my brother starts talking to him. My brother asks him why he's on Southwest, turns out he's heading for an appearance on Leno. My brother asks if he has any of his rings with him, Jeter replies something like, "You think I carry those things around with me? They're worth more than you are!" and starts laughing. I think my brother took it as a joke, but then Jeter goes, "Hey man, I should give you my number. I'm going to some parties in LA, we should kick it." My brother says, "You serious?" and Jeter goes "Hell naw! You think I'd hang out with you?!" and starts laughing like crazy. Then when they're about to get of the plane, my brother asks for his autograph on a napkin or something, and Jeter signs it, "Mickey Mouse". Southwest actually apologized to my brother and gave him a voucher for sitting him next to Jeter, they were so embarrased. Despite all this, I fucking hate Derek Jeter. Becks is overpriced here, but OK in Germany in those huge cans.

Well, Jeter was nice to me. Perhaps you have to be a chick. Southwest, what's the matter with him, he's fucking rich, why is he on Southwest?

Jeter = sharp dressed man.

― Ally, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

poss. answer: southwest has historically hired very ah friendly stewardesses. also they take your drink order and bring it to you, even in coach, which is so much more civilized than gasping at the agonizing mercy of the beverage cart.

― Tracer Hand, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

So you're saying Jeets is just on Southwest for civilised boozing and the mile-high club?

― Ally, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

My understanding is it's all Leno would pay for.

― Kris, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

BTW, Mussina went to Stanford.

― Kris, Monday, 22 October 2001 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)
