The Roundtable

Top Story

Welcome to the Roundtable – a new reoccuring column. The background of this is simple – a group of guys at work e-mailing about various topics, most notably sports. A lot of times, the conversations are comic gold; other times they spark good debate. All of the conversations were too good not to share, so I contacted IP Sports about showing them.

For the time being, only the sports topics will be posted here (that could change depending on the response).

All names and companies have been changed to protect all involved.

Tyler Durden: Derek jeter some how got sports illustrated sportsman of the year award as the first yankee to do so. listen to what this yahoo said. He’s not even the best SS on his own team:

Sports Illustrated Group editor Terry McDonell certainly thinks he has.

“This verifies my idea that he is on the level of Ruth and Gehrig,” McDonell said. “He’s the greatest shortstop in the history of the game.”

Antwon Randel El: Ruth and Gehrig? WOW!

The Moderator: If Jeter played in a different city, he’d be nothing more than an average shortstop.
