| 0:31.1 | You mentioned Derek Jeter going into the hall today. Um, he is the number one, you know, he's the |
| 0:38.5 | the story. I mean, everybody's talking about Derek Jeter rightly. So five world series championships. |
| 0:45.2 | Uh, I, I actually think Rob. I think Derek Jeter is underrated because when I hear people and |
| 0:55.6 | I'm talking about pundits. It's funny. You say that because some fans say he's overrated, |
| 1:00.1 | which is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard, but right. Go ahead fans pun, but a lot of |
