I think it’s amazing to see athletes/celebs reach out to the victims of the Newton, CT tragedy. Derek Jeter is the latest to reach out and it was to the mother of Victoria Soto, one of the teachers killed while protecting her first-grade students. GameTimeGirl
(New Photo) MLB: Derek Jeter Responds To ‘Fat’ Photos
Last week the NY Post made fun of Jeter calling him ‘Derek Eater’ and shared a few of pics of the captain looking a lil on the heavy side (check it out here). He def. did look like he gained some weight, but apparently it was just the angle of the pics and he has NOT gained that weight. Yesterday Jeter went on with ESPN radio and responded to the Post’s headline. GameTimeGirl

(PHOTOS) MLB: UH-OH! Holiday Pounds?! Derek Jeter Gaining Too Much Weight?!
It looks like someone’s been enjoying the holidays too much! Lol. Derek Jeter is still recovering from breaking his ankle in the playoffs, but he was spotted in Miami looking a lil heavy. I don’t think this is something we need to worry about (crossing my fingers), but if he can’t work out due to the injury, he needs to cut back on the food! You know the NY Post had to make fun of him. Check out the pics & let us know what you think… GameTimeGirl
MLB: Yankees Throw $10 Million At Rivera!
The Yankees just LOVE to overpay aging players who are past their prime. Earlier this week they paid Andy Pettitte $12 million to come back for 1 more season. Early this morning they agreed to re-sign Mariano Rivera to a 1 year $10 million dollar deal. Now don’t get me wrong, both of these guys are future hall of fame players who have done great things during their careers, but eventually like an old family pet, you have to put a legend down with love. The Yankees did pretty well last season with limited help from Pettitte and pretty much no help from Rivera who missed most of the season with a knee injury. The Yankees however never seem to care about throwing millions of dollars at old players. This past season they had the oldest roster in baseball based on the average age of their players. If they keep doing this eventually they will need to spend money on walkers for the players and AARP memberships. Click after the jump. IamJOE357
