Olbermann was silly and stupid on how many hoops he jumped through to keep Jeter out of the Yankees' all-time top 10, and maybe he does struggle to remain relevant. But he's a bit of an acquired taste, and when he gets it right, he does a good job tearing idiots to shreds. I think he struggled with the Jeter thing -- as duque pointed out it's been more than a little tedious -- and got mad at Jeter instead of the barkers who obviously planned all this out before the season started -- except that part where he ends his career in freaking Fenway.Parson Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09312179928176617912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-77092606936956126422014-09-25T13:27:58.975-04:002014-09-25T13:27:58.975-04:00Great work, Bern.

I think if he had to do it again, he would have kept his retirement announcement to himself. <br /><br />It's quite predictable, though, that someone in the press would fell duty-bound to make a story by taking shots at Jeter. You can't do it fairly, so people like Olberman just end up looking ridiculous. <br /><br />Is there any question that Jeter is the best shortstop in the history of the franchise and is a lock for the Hall of Fame? No. So why not celebrate him?ceejanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-42555365654368393632014-09-25T10:27:29.129-04:002014-09-25T10:27:29.129-04:00this is a petty, mean-spirited man who truly belie...this is a petty, mean-spirited man who truly believes his shit don't stink. I've always considered him a front-runner when musing about the identity of Anonymouse.
