In my lifetime, there have been very few things in the sports world that remain constant. As a New Yorker, the most important one is this: the New York Yankees will contend for a World Series banner each and every year.
It is comforting to know that there is an organization that cares about titles, especially when sharing a city with teams like the New York Mets and New York Knicks, who may be equally as consistent at losing as the Yankees are at winning.
The Yankees have been great in so many different eras, it is important go back and look at what the trends are amongst them.
The most prevalent throughout every Yankee dynasty is strong hitters and strong leaders.
Derek Jeter combines both of those things so seamlessly in his never-ending hunger for greatness.
When all is said and done, Jeter will undoubtedly be enshrined in monument park next to greats like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle and Yogi Berra. To be mentioned in the same sentence with those legends is the greatest achievement a ballplayer could ever hope for.
VERY GOOD
