Another team could have offered him an exact duplicate of A-Rod's contract and he would probably still turn it down.

I guess that's the problem with baseball writing in general at this point. So many bullshit stories. It seems like writers just cause blind speculation in hopes that they are right so they can say they were the first to report it. We'll see tons of it in the Winter Meetings.
I can only speak from what I've seen, but I've heard nothing but support for Derek Jeter. Note: I'm from Boston.
