I agree that he's a fantastic player and that he deserves a ton of praise. I just think that it goes overboard based on some non-concrete reasons:
-Championships are not a measure of player quality.
-I don't like attributing leadership as a quality. Sure, it's not quantifiable, but some guys just don't mesh with others, and after a while... say McCann comes in this year and doesn't get along with Jeter. No drama, just doesn't like the guy's personality. Are you really gonna say you don't think someone with Jeter's perfect perception isn't a leader? My point is that there's no real 100% way of knowing what the guy was like although I feel like this paragraph did a pretty poor job of explaining that lol.
-We don't know if Jeter did PEDs. I'm not saying he did lol this isn't even about Jeter, I'd just like to make a very broad general point: we don't really know who didn't do PEDs. In that age, it was probably a matter of who hid it best. I honestly don't care a ton about PEDs anyway.
So I feel like it's a little overboard. But a lot of that is probably because he played on the Yanks. He's still obviously a tremendous player who deserves the utmost respect.
