I somehow knew that he'd break the record on September 11th. If this were anyone but Jeter, I'd call it a Yankee-Steinbrenner mega-conspiracy. But it is Jeter so I'm going to suppress my natural cynicism and just be proud.

WINNERS

Yankees fans (if there are, in fact, any of you out there), stand tall today, because who knows what will happen tonight.

"Every year of my childhood this is the weekend when the Yankees decide they're not going to lose another game for the rest of the fucking season. I hope this isn't one of those years."
