I need you here next year Terez..you flaked on me again..
Derek Jeter hopes to score big in Tampa this weekend by raising money for his charitable foundation. Jeter is best known for his feats on the baseball field as captain and shortstop of the world champion New York Yankees, but he also has a passion for helping kids. In 1996, he started his Turn 2 Foundation, which funds programs aimed at keeping kids off drugs and alcohol. “We’re coming up with some great programs and really trying to help the community,” he said Wednesday night at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. Jeter held a star-studded party to kick off the weekend’s events. The guest list included Michael Jordan, wrestler John Cena, James Blake, Derrick Brooks and a number of other sports stars and celebrities. The evening was slated to include a performance by English soul and R&B singer Joss Stone. The culmination of the weekend is the Seventh Annual Derek Jeter Celebrity Golf Classic, which takes place Friday at the Avila Golf and Country Club in Tampa. Partygoers paid big to get into Wednesday’s event: tickets cost $500 apiece. The Seminole Hard Rock donated $150,000 to the foundation. Jeter said the money raised is used to help kids in West Michigan, where he grew up, as well as children in New York and Tampa– News Channel 8 (Tampa)
Jeter gives back..usually with herpes but in some cases with charity. -TO
Terez, I'm sorry you couldn't make it..we had a blast, especially gayrod..
The Yankees and their wives and girlfriends showed up in full force to the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas for NBA great Michael Jordan’s Celebrity Invitational Softball Challenge. While Johnny Damon spent most of the weekend partying with wife Michelle Damon, Derek Jeter’s rumored fiancee, Minka Kelly, was low-key. “She joined him late Saturday night for a party that Sam Ronson was deejaying. They brought her in the back,” says a spy. Also there was Alex Rodriguez, who was too busy hitting on women to pose for photos. — NY Post
Looks like a great weekend..Gayrod was definitely in full force swinging..both ways.. -TO
Terez, don't count me out yet..I still have a lot left on my sexual bucket list..
Relax, ladies – Derek Jeter isn’t engaged. A friend of Minka Kelly – the TV bombshell Jeter has been dating since May of ‘08 – tells us that rumors of a Nov. 5 wedding at a posh Long Island country club are unfounded. “Minka says things are great between her and Derek – and they’re definitely serious – but there’s no talk of an engagement,” the pal says, adding that “Minka has not been wearing a ring.” The source continued that many of Kelly’s close friends have heard nothing of an engagement – besides the rumors that have been floating around since the weekend. Reps for Jeter and Kelly, meanwhile, didn’t return calls for comment by deadline. This isn’t the first time false allegations have been made about impending nuptials for the two (r.): In August, The News dispelled rumors that they were getting hitched after the ‘09 World Series as well. So how did the latest whispers begin? It may be a case of mistaken identity. Recently, Jeter’s father, Charles, let it slip that he was getting ready to see one of his children walk down the aisle – but he was talking about daughter Sharlee, who’s engaged to rapper Skyzoo. Besides, if the Nov. 5 wedding was in fact for Derek, an insider says the posh Oheka Castle – the venue that was reported to be hosting the event – would never have leaked the news. — NY Daily News
Man, I know all the ladies out there were freaking out about DJ tying the knot..Don’t worry ladies, you still have time to contract herpes from Captain Skankee. -TO
Terez, why is Derek the King of Tampa Bay and I'm stuck holding these brooms..
10 Connects has learned that television and commercial producer Anthony Sullivan has withdrawn his request to build a six-foot-tall fence – like his neighbor Derek Jeter – in front of his Davis Islands home. First reported in November, Sullivan was petitioning for a code variance to the city’s three-foot limit on walls and fences. Jeter won approval for a six-foot-tall wall in August based on his celebrity status. Sullivan’s petition – filled out by business partner Peter Donegian – copied Jeter’s nearly word-for-word. Click here to compare Sullivan’s request to the approved request from Jeter (filed as Kered Connors LLC). The city received word Monday afternoon that Sullivan and Donegian were withdrawing the request, just hours before the Variance Review Board was scheduled to hear the petition. But neighbors on Adalia Avenue on Davis Islands say the hearing notice on Sullivan’s lawn was removed about a week ago. – Noah Pranksy 10 Connects
Sully finally realized he’s no Jeter. Thanks for the scoop Noah, keep up the good work. -TO
Terez, I guess I'm diving into this whole marriage thing also..
Admirers of Yankees most eligible bachelor Derek Jeter could be cheering a World Series victory in November – then mourning his marriage a few days later. The New York Post reports Sunday the star shortstop and girlfriend Minka Kelly will be married Nov. 5 on Long Island. Acting on a tip, a reporter posing as a bride-to-be spotted an entry reading “JETER wedding” on the calendar for the Oheka Castle in Huntington, N.Y. Sales manager Rick Bellando insisted that a celebrity wouldn’t be listed under his real name when the reporter pointed it out.–Associated Press
With the all-time greatest bachelor in the history of sports tying the knot…herpes outbreaks will go down drastically. -TO
Derek Jeter’s most ardent admirer may have been fired from her post at Nino’s Postiano – but at least the pretty brunette has plenty of free time to devote to her favorite hobby. Bardha Behluli is denying that she returned to Jeter’s home at Trump Towers the night after an escapade that got her fired from her job at the eatery, but a source inside the posh East Side residence says she did indeed come back. “She tried for roughly 10 minutes to flirt her way upstairs on Monday night,” the insider said. “But the security at Jeter’s residence is tighter than the White House. ” We can confirm that the police were not summoned upon the alleged arrival of Behluli, who had tried to get upstairs with the restaurant’s delivery guy to see Jeter on Sunday. Trump Towers would not offer comment on the debacle. – NY Daily News
Her Jeter obsession cost her a job..Probably not the first time she’s had to look for new employment..-TO
Terez, I'm the sportsman of the year and rich..who cares if I have an STD..
The ladies of New York City go crazy over Derek Jeter – almost literally. One in particular – a hostess from Nino’s Positano at 47th and Second – got so worked up over the Yankee captain that she caused some major drama outside his Tudor City pad late Sunday night. An insider dishes that the star shortstop ordered in from the Italian eatery – where he’s a regular – and the very thought of him caused the fairly new employee to go into a tizzy. “She started freaking out on the phone when she realized who it was,” the insider said, “and basically begged the delivery guy to take her with him.” The delivery guy, who looked less than comfortable with the request, offered to let the lass come along and wait outside the building, but not go upstairs. “Jeter is a very important customer to [the restaurant's owner] Nino Selimaj,” the insider says. “He even named a chicken entree after Derek and has a special private table in the back that’s available to him whenever he wants it. The kid knew better than to upset Derek – and Nino for that matter – by bringing a crazed fan do his doorstep.” But the hostess didn’t give him much of a choice: Once outside the building, we hear, she grabbed the food and tried to charm her way inside, begging the doorman to let her go up and meet Jeter with his dinner. “I’m his No. 1 fan,” she yelled. Several tenants in Jeter’s posh lobby stopped to look at the woman, who was practically pleading at that point. But her cryin’ didn’t work: Spies say the doorman immediately escorted her out of the building and delivered Jeter’s cuisine to his door personally. – NY Daily News
What is it about Jeets the ladies love…his herpes?? -TO
You don't like dude, no matter what. He could rescue your mama from a fire, and you'd complain that he left behind her purse. Keep hating, though. Hating and trolling suits you to a T, TO. :-)
