How should the Orioles show re2pect to Jeter?




As Derek Jeter makes the rounds this year he's being given farewell gifts by all the teams the Yankees visit. As an Orioles fan, I find this Jeter-worshipping obnoxious and feel a kind of dread over what the Orioles will give him when he makes his last visit to Camden Yards. Then it hit me, the perfect gift. Seeing as the Yankees are likely to be vacationing this October, the Orioles should give Jeter tickets to all their playoff games. Come on, the Captain hasn't missed many postseasons since he started playing for the Yankees. It wouldn't be right for him to have to sit at home and watch them on TV. On the off chance that he has already made plans for October, I suppose a decent back up gift would be a gift basket full of Old Bay, so he'll always have the perfect thing to put on his crabs. It's not like he needs another knick-knack to find wall space for that will just collect dust.

Those are my ideas for farewell gifts for Jeter, but I'm sure y'all will come up with much better ones. So, what should the Orioles give Derek Jeter as a thank you for never coming back?
