I'm just saying that, look, this whole conversation is actually to defend the New York Yankees.
To get them on a knee for every play.
That's the part I don't think you want to hear.
I'm defending the Yankees, but just reminding you that Jeter and Bernie weren't exactly Ozzie Smith and Andrew Jones out there.
I mean, when you go look at the statistics, Evan, it's kind of right.
Of course I'm right.
Everybody knows I'm right.
They just don't want to admit it because we glorify them.
And they're great players.
I'm not trying to put them down.
I really am not.
I had a discussion the other day with a buddy of mine.
I was like, I put Jeter as the second greatest shortstop in the history of baseball.
I do.
And I've made that comment before.
It's Honus Wagner one and it's Derek Jeter two.
Don't give me Ripken.
I think Jeter was better.
And I can't even accept A-Rod because half of his career was at third base.
Same with Ernie Banks.
