That's a tough one. I think I'd have wanted to meet Jeter to talk about it. After that I think it would be a matter of attitude. If I got the impresion he felt it was owed to him then I'd probably negotiate pretty hard. If I got a sense that for him it was extremely meaningful I might just let him have it.
For the fan that caught the ball things may be totally diferent. I know there are a few players that if they made a major milestone and I was lucky enough to catch it I'd just give it to them. Many are retired now, but Varitek comes to mind, maybe Ortiz. One of the things that's always amazed me about Jeter is how he's managed to stay fairly private through a long career in a huge media market. I think that's why so many see him as uncaring and money driven. He just hasn't made many statements of an emotional nature. Steve B
