JETER

He was running, very fast, head down, running and running, running out that grounder. Whenever a player in the actual game hit a ball on the ground, Jeter would sprint back down from the stands and run alongside the batter as he ran to first base, then run tight little circles around him as he walked back to the dugout.  XMASTIME
I didn't realize anyone was under the impression Jeter wouldn't return next year (with Mo!), but Buzz Bissinger is worried, although he's right in everything he says about Jeter:
When I saw him get hurt in the first game of the American League Championship Series against the Detroit Tigers last Saturday, I felt something I almost never feel in sports anymore, an actual emotion beyond the anger of scandal and excess. I felt genuine sadness that this may be it for the classiest person in all of sports, an injury that no matter the strength of your will poses a difficult recovery
Obviously, there's no way in hell Jeter's not coming back.
