I dont know if it has been officially announced yet, but Derek Jeter either today or tomorrow will be named SI Sportsman of the Year. This is probably the most prestigous award an athlete can get because it pretty much is states the athlete of the year. The New York Post reported yesterday that Jeter will be named the Sportsman of the Year. This just adds to Jeter's unbelievable resume, which includes a should be 2006 MVP Award, 5 time World Champion, All Star MVP, 4 time gold glove winner, 4 time silver slugger winner, a rookie of the year winner and World Series MVP.
Jeter won this award by batting .334 and with a .406 on base along with 18 home runs while becomeing the all time Yankees hit leader, breaking the immortal Lou Gehrig. In addition, Jeter went on to win another World Series, his 5th and first since 2000. O, he also is dating Minka Kelly, the outrageously hot actress from the show "Friday Night Lights" and just built a 30,000 SQ FT house on Davis Island in Tampa Bay. Decent year for the captain.
