Brilliant short film, projects what every fan wishes their heroes were like--affable, approachable, courteous and nice. As a fantasy it is sheer genius.

As for Jeter, bravo to him. He deserves the accolades and the money and the models. It was great to follow him as a Yankees fan for all these years. Others may have had more talent or put up better records but he was about as good a role model as you can hope for in this era. No scandals, no PEDS, no nonsense on or off the field.

I still can't believe how fast time goes by. I remember that kid shortstop like it was yesterday but Jeter was a rookie the year I got married; my 16 year old drove me to work the other morning...

Too bad the cards from the era were/are overproduced. I've never had any motivation to collect them. I have only one Jeter card, pulled from a pack:



Definitely the best pack I ever opened.
