The Quote Of The Century

This was too good not to share. My pal Chris sent me an email today, which he called "The Quote Of The Century". It was an absolute beauty of a statement made by John Sterling, the lead voice of the Yankees on the radio. Derek Jeter had just gotten an RBI single in today's game, and out comes Sterling with this:

"...what a hit by the greatest clutch hitter in the history of sports, Derek Jeter."

And I thought Michael Kay was the worst of the Yankee shills.

Sterling:

"& That Single is brought to you by Cingular";

A Penultimate Shill if ever I've Heard One!
