I'm worried about the sanity of number 5 on the Angels...

[mancini79]

Pujols doesn't even know what he's talking about. Its "Jesus pretty close to Jeter".

[Blarg]

That's bullshit. There is no way Jesus makes that relay throw in game 3 of the playoffs.

[jshep]

I bet Jeter gives better giftbaskets to his one-night stands than Jesus did.

[ten ocho recon scout]

They both start their names with J and E. So maybe he meant in the dictionary?

[bloodbrother]

Didn't realize Pujols was such a big fan of Jesus Montero

[tdawg87]

He's right. Jeter has developed a strong bond and friendship with his gardener.

Shocking that your title is inaccurately quoted purely to mislead.

 

Here are his exact words: "On and off the field, he's the way you want your kids to grow up. Only Jesus is perfect, but he's pretty close to that guy."

 

Way to turn a heartfelt comment from Pujols into a misguided opportunity to question the guys sanity because he believes in Jesus.

 

Really showcasing the extent of your class there YoT.

[Blarg]

Shocking that you didn't find the humor in his post.

 

 

Well, actually not.

[CaliAngel]

I didn't find humor in his post probably because it wasn't funny.

 

Not shocking, actually.

[Brent Maguire]

He's right. Jeter has developed a strong bond and friendship with his gardener.

Alright this is great lol.

[Stradling]

Didn't read the quote until it was posted in the thread. I seriously question the sanity of YoT. I wonder if Pujols stole his girl or something....

Well I didn't read his post that way AT ALL, but okay then...

Oh boy

Even if you believe in Jesus -- which I do not as I am an atheist -- would you really compare a ballplayer to the son of a God? I didn't realize giving girls one sleeps with during a one night stand gift baskets was so Devine.

John Lennon is rolling in his grave.

[Ohtaniland]

Jesus?

 

[bloodbrother]

You see the women he's been with? Even God would worship the man

[jshep]

If nothing else, at least ESPN has given us this:

Also this:

 

[FabulousFabregas]

Remember when Scioscia and Hunter gave Jeter the painting of the people in the bar looking at a painting of Jeter?  I think for Jeter's final season they should give him a painting of them giving him the previous painting where the guys are looking at a painting of Jeter.

 

[JAHV76]

Some might say Jeters career was god like.

[tomsred]

.......And on May 29, 1995, Jeter created the modern Yankees, and George Stienbrenner looked around and said, "this is good, real good."  And does this mean that Arod is close to Judas?

[gotbeer]

So if Jeter is close to perfect.  perfect being Jesus.

 

Then that means that Jesus left gift baskets to all the women he slept with out of wedlock right?
