Manky, you stalker-ish idiot! You're referring to a convo Jetes had with Michael 7-8 years ago.

No, this was just in the NY Times a few days ago.

Very few players - at any age - are capable of having the kind of season Jeter had last year.

Testosterone is a hell of a drug.

Jeter's physique has not changed since he entered the league. He is a true athlete, not a muscle-bound slugger.

Lance Armstrong's physique didn't change either.

Yes, but there were also numerous teammates that accused him of doping. There hasn't even been a hint of a rumor about Jeter.
 
Oh for ****'s sake. From the Harvey Araton story in question:




But Gene Michael, who has been watching Jeter here longer than anyone, couldn’t help glancing back.

A conversation they once had was fresh on his mind and certainly took on a whole new dimension given the high stakes drama as Jeter, 38 until June 26, switches focus from the career marathon to a six-week sprint; as he races the calendar to meet his stated goal of being in the opening day lineup, at shortstop, after breaking his ankle in Game 1 of the American League Championship Series four months ago.

“We’re sitting in the training room — seven years ago, maybe eight — and he says, ‘Hey, Stick, how many more years do you think I could play?’ ” said Michael, once a rail-thin shortstop and hence, the nickname.

Of course not. Ever since he killed that hooker in the clubhouse back in '05, ain't nobody ratting out Jetes.
Nobody.

Nobody.

Mattingly didn't have to kill anybody to earn his teammates' respect.

What about the five hookers he killed at SMU?
