Injury Robs Jeter Of Final Games With Rivera Pettitte - RealGM Wiretap
It occurred to Derek Jeter on Sunday afternoon while the New York Yankees were honoring Mariano Rivera that he has played his final game with the legendary closer and left-hander Andy Pettitte.
"Knowing that I'm not playing anymore this year Randall Cunningham Jersey ," Jeter said, "I've played my last game with those two."
Jeter insisted that he hadn't considered the finality until Sunday. Rivera and Pettitte will retire after the season, while injuries have ended Jeter's campaign.
"I'm going to miss them a lot," Jeter said. "These guys have been brothers to me. We've been through quite a bit together. Pretty much everything you can experience on a field. In my whole professional career, I've been playing with at least one of them. So yeah, I'll definitely miss them."

Unless appealed, Pineda's suspension is scheduled to begin Thursday night, when the two clubs continue their series in Boston.
锘? The Braves make the NBA Playoffs nothing to me. Boring and commercialized beyond belief. The fact that our own Phoenix Suns have been eliminated because they couldn't play defense... Well, they all should have learned from the Phoenix Indian School Braves. At the property that is now Indian School Steele Park, northeast of the intersection of east Indian School Road and north Central Avenue Brian Dawkins Jersey , was the Phoenix Indian School. Now I know the name of the park is the Steele Indian School Park, but to those of us who were once part of the Phoenix Indian School, it is, we think, Stolen Indian School Park but that's a whole different story. The property of the Phoenix Indian School was once much larger than the 75 acres sold off by the federal government another promise broken to Indian people, of course, to private commercial interests with the proviso that they remand a certain portion of the land sale for a public park. But this is about the Phoenix Indian School Braves, and not politics. (Now, for those who are recoiling in horror that I use here the name Braves because the name is not now politically correct, I dee-double dare you to walk up to an old graduate of the Indian School and tell them that the name Braves is, these days Jordan Hicks Eagles Jersey , an impolite pejorative, and should not be a part of the contemporary vocabulary. I suspect you will come away, at least, with a moderate-to-devastating bawling out, or, at the most, a punch in the nose.) Because the Braves were our team. Oh, now I know I didn't attend the school. But Dad was an employee of the school, at various times, the head basketball coach, sponsor of the Indian Club and teacher Stephen Tulloch Eagles Jersey , and most recently, the librarian. But I was a campus brat, the child of Indian School employees who lived on campus. We participated at the periphery of student life and smack-dab in the middle of faculty and staff life. We the students, the faculty, staff and brats were the supporters, athletic (You've heard the joke) and otherwise of the teams. Our teams. Now our football team after the 1930's and 40's weren't so much to brag about. Before then, we were a power to be reckoned with. We played much teams from much bigger schools including the Phoenix Union Coyotes, the Tempe Normal Bulldogs (which later became Arizona State College at Tempe, and still later, Arizona State Univerity of VOTE YES ON 200 fame.) Our Braves once also called the Redskins regularly beat these teams. One story told by the late M.R. Bill Hagerty, history teacher at Phoenix North High Terrence Brooks Eagles Jersey , was that, one year in the Thanksgiving game, the Phoenix Union team was sweeping the end, the ball being carried by a large boy who later became a judge in our state. One of our boys, whose name is now unremembered, was throwing aside their choice of designations, now our blockers and interference men, until he came to the ball carrier. Our lineman reached over and picked up the ball carrier and simply stood there with him, holding him like the back was a baby, until one of the officials decided to end the play. Do you remember that, Your Honor? Mr. Hagerty asked. How could you forget? the judge Kenjon Barner Eagles Jersey , smiling, said. But, then the Arizona Interscholastic Association came up with a plan and a deadly device that affected all Arizona high schools, but probably the Indian school more than the others. This dirty little device was called the birth certificate. It may have been okay with the Lord for 20 and 30 -year-old guys to play high school football, but apparently not with the AIA. So, afterward, our football teams were regularly beaten by other schools, but not our basketball teams. Ah, yes. Our basketball teams. They were the run-and-shoot Braves decades before the NBA caught the concept. Our game would have made Hank Iba and ol' Coach Wooden run screaming in terror into the night. The names of the run 'n' shooters are legendary among Indian School old timers: Chico and Edison Johnson and Arnold Bilagody and Roy Calnimptewa and . . . and Joel Querta . . . and . . . and . . . so many others. Especially in the years of Coach Joe-Joe Famulette. Our tactics were simple: Run and shoot the ball, steal and shoot the ball, run and shoot the ball Marcus Smith II Eagles Jersey , steal and shoot the ball. Our strategy was similar: Run and shoot the ball, steal and shoot the ball. Call a quick time out, run back on the floor before the other team. Run and shoot the ball. Get the idea? In these days of so-called power players, our guys could've run Kobe Bryant and his expensive shoes into the floor. He would have to call a lot shoestring-tying .
