A Major League Baseball player who was drafted sixth overall in the 1992 MLB Amateur Draft. A perennial All-Star and current captain of the New York Yankees, Jeter is a terrific hitter who has frequent troubles defending his position at shortstop. He won four World Series titles as a member of the Yankees between 1996-2000. He is often credited with having great intangibles, although this is all speculation since these qualities cannot be measured. Also known for his handsome looks and mulatto ancestry.
Objective fan #1: "Derek Jeter occasionally costs the Yankees runs because of his inability to make effective plays on balls hit to his right."
Objective fan #2: "Yes, but he makes up for it because he is excellent at the plate and is able to work the count and get on base."
Objective fan #1: "I agree."

Get the Derek Jeter mug.The starting shortstop and captain of the New York Yankees, arguably the best clutch hitter in baseball. As well as going back and forth for the American League lead in batting average in 2006, he is also the leading candidate for the league's Most Valuable Player award. He is considered by most to be a future hall of famer, and is one of the most revered and highly regarded Yankees of all-time.
Derek Jeter came up big in the clutch yet again, with a 2 out, 9th inning double, propelling the Yankees to their sixth straight win.

Get the Derek Jeter mug.A contest in which two guys’ rectums are connected with a rubber tube and both guys eat twelve boxes of raisins; the first person to produce enough pressure to burst the other guy’s colon, wins.

Get the Derek Jeter mug.
A closet homosexual who plays shortstop for the New York Yankees. It is widely believed that he has a sexual relationship with Yankee third baseman, Alex Rodriguez. Ever since A-Rod came to New York, there have been many instances of ass-touching and subtle neck-kissing going on between the tandem.
Derek was also voted most feminine in the MLB in 2006 in an anonymous poll of players and coaches. It was a landslide vote.

Get the Derek Jeter mug.Extremely overrated shortstop for the New York Yankees - although he's a very good hitter (for a shortstop), he's pretty bad defensively and is waaay overpaid, even by baseball's exorbidant standards. He's baseball's equivalent of Tom Brady.
Wow! He had a .500 slugging average and drove in 100 RBIs ONCE! He almost hit 25 homers a couple of times, and he's never struck out 150 times in a season! What a fantastic player! Scott Brosius also won all of those rings! Scott Brosius is the second-greatest player ever!
