Jeter will sell tons of memorabilia related to his 3000th hit --- and make a ton of money from it. Yet this guy is 'noble' for giving the ball to Derek for free? The Yankees refused to give up one game's receipts as a gesture to their fans who missed Friday's game due to a rainout because, as Cashman said, 'we run a baseball business" -- yet this guy is 'noble' for giving the ball to Derek for free? What a double standard. Jeter should have either given the guy a significant sum of cash or set up some trust for the guy's future kids or SOMETHING. Why is that a fan has to be noble to get respect but Jeter and the Yankees can continue to be pigs at the trough -- and we all expect such behavior?
