Attention girls: Jeter’s on the lookout

Posted by: Peter Abraham - Posted in Misc on Mar 13, 2008 Print This Post Print This Post | Email This Post Email This Post

The Yankees-Virginia Tech game next week is a certified Big Deal in Blacksburg, Va. Joe Girardi and Derek Jeter did a conference call with reporters from Virginia today. My colleague Sam Borden listened in and recorded this funny exchange:

Female reporter: “Derek, you’re going to be arguably the most famous person ever to be on Virginia Tech’s campus. Do you think you’ll finally be able to find a girlfriend here?”

Jeter: “Uh, unfortunately we don’t get a chance to stay for a couple of days, we’re only there a few hours. If you have anyone in mind though, let me know.”

Male reporter: “Well, I don’t know if I can top that one …”

Jeter: “Hey, if you have anyone in mind too, buddy, let me know.”

    Hey Jeter! Over here!

    Classic Jeter. What a paradox. Classy guy you’d like your daughter to marry. Naughty guy you’d like your daughter not to marry.

    That’s awesome. Lucky b*tches.

    Renee,

    And if the long distance relationship gets too tedious, you and Giselle can just swap honeys. :)

    No matter what I achieve in this world, I’ll always envy Mr. Jeter.

    Are you going to the game at VT, Pete?

    Jeter is Client 6, 7, 8, and 10.

  11. We Miss Paulie March 13th, 2008 at 6:06 pm

    Jeter doesn’t pay for it. C’mon.

  12. GREEN March 13th, 2008 at 6:16 pm

    Wait a second, I’m client number…never mind.

  13. Chris NY March 13th, 2008 at 6:19 pm

    I don’t think Jeter’s interested in more than “a few hours” anyway…….

  14. Phil Hughes is Saved! March 13th, 2008 at 6:21 pm

    Call me Derek! :)

    Pete -
    Great job the last few days.

    Michael Kay and the YES guys thought that Ransom has opened some eyes in camp, and has impressed Girardi both in the field and at the plate.

    He certainly has a little more pop in the bat than Woodward.

    What have you heard?

  16. Jimmy 27 March 13th, 2008 at 6:51 pm

    Jeter is destined to end up with Alyssa Milano – Torre will be the matchmaker – You heard it hear first folks

  17. Amanda March 13th, 2008 at 7:12 pm

    Alright, who’s going to organize a group blog trip down to VA?!

  18. Shawna March 13th, 2008 at 7:25 pm

  19. jennifer-Phil Hughes saved!! Mussina is NOT DONE! anti RAYS! March 13th, 2008 at 7:46 pm

    Me too!

  20. Jones March 13th, 2008 at 7:49 pm

    “Attention Girls: Jeter’s on the Lookout”. I can’t imagine actually writing and then posting that publicly. How embarrassing.

  21. David March 13th, 2008 at 8:12 pm

    Does anyone know where you can find a recording of this call?

    Thanks.

    Nettles vs Lee…

    You wrote: “Jeter is Client 6, 7, 8, and 10.”

    I was going to joke something similar, but I very much doubt that Derek Jeter must pay for such things. Eliot is, well… he’s Eliot.

  23. Elizabeth--FarnsWORTHIT March 13th, 2008 at 8:54 pm

    …overcompensate much, Jeet?

  24. carolyn March 13th, 2008 at 9:07 pm

    I think Derek Jeter and the YANKEES are a very classy
    organization for playing the VA TECH HOKIES in a baseball
    game and for their 1 MILLION dollar donation to the
    victims of the shooting last april..what a wonderful thing
    to come out of such a tragic situation..may GOD be with
    the YANKEES and VA TECH..
    GO HOKIES!!!!!!
