Earlier, Derek Jeter spoke to SI about the Torre-A-Rod situation:

“I’m just curious as to why people keep asking the same questions over and over. We’ve been down this road before. Alex is a teammate. I support him. Our whole team is behind him. We all support him. And we’re looking forward to a new season. To be quite honest with you, it’s old hearing the same questions. It’s something that’s been addressed before in the past. Everyone’s moved beyond it. And it doesn’t really need to be addressed again.”

Did you see that?

I support him.

Although I would have liked a bit more than the usual, generic statement (how about “leave the guy alone, already”), this was still nice. Maybe DJ read Anthony’s recent piece?

    It’s about time. That is all that he needed to say.

    Eh. It’s still Jeter-speak to me.

    He’ll never actually say something risky like “people need to stop ripping on A-Rod, Mr. T included, because he works his a** off every day to help us win.”
