I would have kept the ball for myself and sold it, probably to a private collector rather than at auction. I would think a private collector would pay above the projected auction price just to keep the ball from going to auction.

Reasoning: Jeter has been extremely fortunate in his life. He has God given talent, good health, the opportunity to play on a winning team, and the ability to provide for his family. He has taken full advantage of all of those opportunities.

Why should I feel any different for being fortunate enough to catch the ball?
