Road Trip to the West Coast

We're off to Seattle. Tough flight, but also means more movies. Maybe
even three on the way out. You know how some people can't stop buying
shoes or something? For me, it's movies. I go to Blockbuster and get
them all.
A few of you (like Jennifer P.) have asked about what it's like on the
road. I'm a creature of habit. Usually end up going to the same
restaurants. And, often chicken is involved. Over the last couple
years I've been trying to take advantage of these trips and see the
cities like I should, but it's tough. Games end pretty late.
I also read that Cathy asked about HOPE week. I have to say it was a
great experience. I met some wonderful people and enjoyed spending a
little time with them. I know the entire team was looking forward to
it and felt good afterwards. Definitely would want to do it again next
season. I think every team should.
Nancy C. wrote in wanting to know when I thought women would play pro
baseball. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think a woman played in the
minors. Either way, I don't see any reason why she couldn't. I don't
think it makes a difference male or female.
A very perceptive Molly H. noticed I don't chew gum while playing any
more. I'm always amazed what you all notice. Truth is Molly... I kept
biting my tongue.
And, lastly to Nicole... Take care of that ankle sprain and do what the
doctor says to help it heal.

HAVE A GREAT TRIP and games IN SEATLE.... i also watch movies while me and my family take road trips its passes time by Quicker!!
What kind of movies do you tend to watch on the flights? What is your favorite baseball movie of all time?
If a hitter is struggling, does Kevin Long put their at bats together on a dvd for them to watch on the flight?
Kick some tail on the WCoast!
good luck derek !
Good luck and all the best to you and Yankess! We are looking forward Yankees to staying "NO.1" with whole season, Cheers!
P.S.: Is your right foot getting better? We hope it won't affect your play in the future, take care and good luck!
Creature of Habit means you are highly Analytical and Methodical in your delivery which equates 2 Success! Subpar is NOT part of OUR VOCABULARY just as the word "NO" is NOT a part of my vocabulary.
Catch U in Boston @ Ritz Carlton! Room ending w/#21 :0)
As for common sense we have NONE! Creatures of Habit can do the most AMAZING things yet simplistic things such as chewing gum without injury escapes us. Let me venture to say this you bite your tongue when you're nervous, the gum is confusing our brain?
love you guys good luck make new york proud....GO YANKEE'S
Hey derek-
so what is your favorite movies to watch mine is When harry met sally. I also love 61 about the homerun chase of 61. Who is your favorite actor mine is Billy crystal.
Im a creature of habit. So what is your favorite way to eat chicken
I love eating it grilled with no skin and with teriyaki sauce my fave. If you venture out in seattle go to pike street market they have great fresh fruit love there pears. Also i love ivars very good food.
Hey how is your ankle this morning i hope it feels better. good luck on this road trip
I hope you guys sweep the mariners and the a's. get alot of sleep. God bless and love jen oh my favorite gum is juicy friut very good go yankees
When you get to BOSTON... Let them ALL know that they seem to getting smaller and smaller every time I look in the REARVIEW MIRROR!!!
i heard about a woman in japan getting signed to a professional contract also. it wasn't like the "major leagues" of japan just one of the smaller leagues but it's a start :D wonder if she gets her own locker room lol

Derek you are the man!!! keep pouring it on those Pink Sox! I had the highest compliment ever today.... he said when I turned my SWEET double play that it was so good and smooth it looked like Jeter turning 2!!
hey, Derek,
being that i am at college for a week tomorrow, would you want to college if you wanted to? because i want to be a sports writer (and i have 2 roomates).
my 19th birthday is coming up in October. what do u think i should do since my family lives 3 hours away and my birthday is on a Tuesday?
i knew you stopped chewing gum but i didn't know why know i know
Q. What is it like having swisher in the clubhouse every day? Just woundedinv
Thanks for losing the game on Sunday!
I was at the game at the Stadium on the 25th of Aug. In the right field seats during BP, I caught a ball hit by Hideki Matsui. I thought maybe I could send it to Mr. Matsui to get him to sign it. I was just wondering if it's possible to do that.
Hey Jeets,
Just wondering,not to jump the gun, but with football season approaching, what team, do you root for??
Thanks,
The ultimate "SHE-FAN"!!
Let's win next game
I'm like you, addicted to movies! I've got like 1500 DVD's! Do you like The Rookie with Dennis Quaid? I think it's great for kids who LOVE baseball! My kids are both into baseball SO much, so they love that movie. Did you ever face Jim Morris?
WHAT IS GOING ON WITH YOU AND YOUR LOVE LIFE IS IT GOING TO EFFECT BASEBALL AND THE NEW HOUSE IS OUT OF CONTROLL YOU BETTER PLAN ON HAVING 12 TO 33 KIDS FOR A HOUSE LIKE THIS GOOD LUCK
leave him alone!!! lol...
Ha, we love you Derek. Don't pay attention to those love life comments. Just keep hitting the cover off the ball.
