A-rod wins his what second MVP, right? Yea, but I think Ortiz was beat by a slim margin.

A-rod is one of 4 players to win it on two different teams and also one of 4 to win it at two different positions. And yes, Jeter is overrated but is still a good player, just not 10th...

There aren't that many everyday players in the AL, it's not that much of a stretch to consider him the 10th best in the league.

Oh, trivia, lets see if I can get it without looking it up.

MVPs on two different teams.
1. Jimmie Foxx (PHL A and BOS A)
2. Frank Robinson (CIN N and BAL A)
3. Barry Bonds (PIT N and SF N)
4. Alex Rodriguez (TEX A and NY A)

MVPs at two different positions
1. Stan Musial (LF and 1B)
2. Robin Yount (SS and CF)
3. OK you're going to have to tell me this one.
4. Alex Rodriguez (SS and 3B)

My money's on Maimonides. That guy could flat out HIT.

Well Smocko, you've earned my first award in a long time. The coveted "Most hilarious reference to Maimonides since Mr. Lefkowitz called him 'Mymon-ides' in 2nd grade Hebrew Class". Your prize is a plaque, and an awkward man hug.

And if the Jewish dead thing didn't give it to you it's Greenberg.

Yeah, has anyone read Greenbergs auto biography? It's pretty good i'm not done yet though.

I have a great bunch of teammates and was honored to be tenth in the league

Oh, you're actually pretending to be Jeter, yeah, you're an alter ego.

How did it take so long for a Jeter to show up?
barterer2002

November 17, 2005 at 03:12AM View BBCode

Probably because Jetpac didn't tell yankeekid how to create an alter ego until now.

Wrong, guess again, not me. I'm still confused about how to make an alter ego.... :puzzled:

Witchcraft.

Just call up an important person and ask him to go on some website he's never heard of and he'll oblige. That's how most alter egos are made.

You need good fundamentals to be a good alter ego.
DerekJeter

November 17, 2005 at 05:39PM View BBCode

And a good group of teammates is always good, especially when cleaning up after the games.
