Yankee fan or Jeter fan?

"Because there is a faction of media and fans who seem more determined to make sure Jeter is taken care of than, you know, actually making sure the Yankees remain elite contenders."

I don't think it's a problem to overpay Jeter and remain elite contenders. The bigger issue is going to be Girardi's willingness to bench him, replace him in the field, bat him lower in the lineup. But even that problem is a couple of years away.

My problem is with so-called Yankee fans who actually claim they don't care how the team does, as long as Jeter is happy.

Just recognize that you're a Jeter fan more than you're a Yankee fan.
