Post Blog: King: Jeter: ‘Human’ Pettitte bothered (RR)

Ahh, Jeter…ever the punster.

Beyond the eyes that burn with intensity and a competitive spirit that has carried him further than his tools, Andy Pettitte is exactly like the rest of us: He requires a heart to live, a brain to think, legs to walk and a mouth to talk.

That’s why Derek JeterDerek Jeter says that Pettitte’s inclusion in the Mitchell Report, his admission of taking two spikes of HGH in 2002 to help an elbow problem, and what he said in a recent deposition about longtime buddy Roger ClemensRoger Clemens will bother the Yankees lefty.

“He is human,” the captain said today following a morning workout at the minor league complex. “Not speaking for him but I can only imagine; he is human so I am sure it will.”

"Potential rivals must only be seen as the enemy. To humanize the demons is to weaken yourself. The captain must stay strong."
