Need Help Hating Derek Jeter? Look here...

Scott over at LG&M points us to this great list (and it's not even a music list!) of 100 reasons to hate Jeter. There are some great ones in there, both in the humor department and in the actual, "oh, man....that's true" department (like #31). However, my favorite, most damning reason that Turner lists is number 15: "15. Salary - $19 million per year. Jeter has ranked in the top 5 in salary for the past 4 seasons. It's the only category in which he has placed in the top 5 for those four seasons. " Doubtless Jeter defenders will say, "it's the intangibles he brings!" Whatever.

Still, even if he goes ga-ga everytime he sees Jeter play like the list claims, it's nice to see what Pat Tabler has been up to lately.
