A Quote by Gary Sheffield

Derek Jeter used to come to me and try to tell you what Joe Torre is all about, he's a good man, he's this, he's that, but like I tell Derek Jeter, that's you. It's one thing that they treat you a certain way; you don't feel what other people feel.
I met Tiger Woods, and I looked in his eyes - and I saw Derek Jeter. They don't have to tell people they're good. They just prove it by the way they love the competition.
Derek Jeter seems like a cool dude.
We (Derek Jeter and I) want to kill each other. I think we both drive each other and motivate each other. But, when we're off the field, we're like family. I think the nice thing about it is we became good friends before we even mad it to the big leagues. That makes it more of a healthy relationship.
Derek (Jeter) told me the ghosts would show up eventually!
I always enjoy watching Derek Jeter play because he is a model of consistency both in the field and at the plate. I finished my career with 3,110 hits, and I have only admiration and respect for Derek. I hope he pauses to admire the view and keeps going. Just one more achievement in an incredible career.
I'm not Derek Jeter, there will be no farewell tour.
I think most of the people like the kind of player like Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez. They're pretty tall, and they can do everything.
I want to be to the White Sox what Derek Jeter is to the Yankees.
Well, anytime you're compared to Derek Jeter, it's the ultimate compliment.
There's just something about telling another giant in the New York baseball scene that you thought he was Derek Jeter.
Derek Jeter always felt like New York: the good-looking single guy for all those years. He felt like a Yankee.
Growing up, my favorite player was either Derek Jeter or Manny Ramirez.
I honestly think Derek Jeter could run for mayor in New York, and if not win, get really close, just the way he handled himself.
We (Derek Jeter and I) always talk about getting old, gray, and fat when our careers are over and just having a good time. He's like me. He wants to have a good time and be a good person. It's a weird situation for us. It's just like we're looking in the mirror. the only difference is I'm on the West Coast and he's on the East Coast.
There are things about Joe Torre, if I wanted to come out and say, would show how cold and calculated he really is... Joe Torre is for Joe Torre. ... The graveyard of Yankees coaches is loaded with bones of coaches Joe Torre did nothing about.
Derek Jeter is one who played for such a long time, and David Ortiz in Boston is doing it right now.
