NEW YORK (AP) -- Yankees star Derek Jeter is the latest athlete to receive a threatening letter warning him to stop dating white women.
The letter was mailed to Jeter at Yankee Stadium and called him a ``traitor to his race,'' according to a story in Monday's editions of the Daily News. It warned him to ``stop or he'll be shot or set on fire,'' said a law enforcement source who the newspaper did not identify. It was not clear whether the source was speaking on condition of anonymity.

You're a narrow-minded right-wing bigot... Thanks for misinterpreting my post with a knee-jerk liberal response.

In any case, it will be fun to watch the end of this season. If the Yanks don't win the division, life will go on in the Big Apple. But if the Bosox are shut out of the post-season, I wouldn't say the same for Boston...

Jeter is a decent guy who shouldn't have to put up with such sh-t. His boyfriend A-rod on the other hand...

Additionally, Jeter is as Irish as he is black. The new Phil Lynott!
If you get my reference, you listen to way to much Brit Rock of the 70s (like me!).

LOL - I saw a shirt outside of Fenway last year:
"Jeter sucks A-rod"
'nuff said...
To: GraniteStateConservative
Wish I still had that shot of Jeter and A-Rod with their shirts off that Sports Illustrated ran around 1996 or so (before A-Rod joined the Yankees).

Jeter must only date women whose racial mixture is between 25.1% white/74.9% black and 74.9% white/25.1% black.Rules out octaroons.
To: pa mom
He absolutely is. What a shame to receive a letter like that.

Why is he BLACK? Probably his Dad, like so many(most?) African Americans has some white blood, which means he is more than half white.

He said last night that many people thought he was Latino and spoke Spanish to him. He sure has "white" eyes
