I love Jeter, but he is way easier to replace than Mo. Or Jorge for that matter. Jeter was the face of the franchise, but never should have been captain. O'Neil was the vocal leader of the team, then it was Posada. If Jeter was such a great captain, then the team would not have had to bring in "clubhouse guys" such as Swisher and Sabathia.

re New House: It is going on in all sports. The long time, "real fan" season ticket holders are priced out to make way for corporate tools. In turn, you get dead crowds who spend more time at the Hard Rock Cafe than watching the game. New Giant Stadium is the same way. You can't tell at Barclays, because when the Nets played in NJ, 9 outta 10 times they were lucky to fill the lower bowl.
