That seems to be forgotten...and the 5 rings certainly add to his legend. If there's 4 or 5 heads on the Yankee's Mt. Rushmore, he's on it.

I think that's about right...
Ahead of him would be
Babe, Lou, Mickey and
Joe. Not sure if Jeter would be just ahead of
Yogi or behind him. Perhaps I'm drawing a blank but can't think of anyone else that would push Jeter beyond #6 on a list of all-time Yankee greats. The only pitcher that comes to mind is
Whitey, but he probably goes in behind Jeter.... right?
