Derek Jeter's playing career was a clinic in public relations.
The former Yankees star stayed out of trouble, always said the right thing (even if that meant saying nothing) and kept a low profile. His play on the field did the talking, and it talked well over the course of a Hall of Fame-caliber career.
Jeter's ownership tenure with the Miami Marlins hasn't been quite the same.
The latest moment of public embarrassment: Miami-based sports reporter Andy Slater had his press credentials revoked by the Marlins shortly after discovering that the team's overseas corporate office was nothing more than a post office box.
