Damon played for the Red Sox for 4 years. Jeter has played in the Yankees organization for 13 years now, approaching his 14th this coming season. He is the captian of the Yankees, he has won 4 rings here, 6 pennants, World Series MVP, ASG MVP, Rookie of the Year, two gold gloves, should have won a batting title (but that punkass Bill Mueller sat out most of the last game of the season in 2003 protecting his average, while Jeter played), and is the face of our franchise. I will definately take things he says regarding his loyalty to his franchise over things said by someone who has played 4 years in an organization.
and if they did we would match, and then increase it.
