True story on Derek Jeter
Posted on June 3, 2008
A friend of mine once told me that on a business trip he came across Derek Jeter in a hotel gym.
He was doing a opener on the stationery bike and he was going pretty good, when Derek and his personal trainer walked in to workout. Derek got on the treadmill, walked for 15 minutes, cleaned his face from the transpiration and left the gym.
Now, my friend was convinced that this was a “regular” Derek Jeter workout and in all honesty that is pretty pathetic. BUT, what makes this even crazier is that the guy is on the top-10 list of athletes of best paid athletes in America.
Part of me is jealous and i would go ahead and call him a pussy, but the reality is, that if his life depended on any athletic feat he would most likely not succeed…. I guess I am still bitter.

Now out of the list I have the utmost respect for the basketball players. These guys are making some amazing coin, but they play HARD and word very hard (except Shack). Probably harder than anyone else on the list.
I wish I had the link to the most unhealthy athletes in America. 3-4 of them made it to both… how strange is that?
