Teams negotiate to get back homerun balls

[packs]

There is nothing noble about being poor. If you can cash in on anything, then you should cash in. People who think they're doing a nice thing for a professional athlete are delirious. You've already done a nice thing for them by attending the game. But you never get a thank you.

Sing it brother. It was a total circus and that kid was the elephant.

He thinks he was gonna be jeters friend after that, like you can call him up in the offseason and ask to go hold hands and walk in central park.

they want to believe in the possibility that jeter will remember him and his kind action and even be buddies, but its never the case. jeter probably forgot the guys name already. he should have figured out the high retail price for the ball, then offer jeter right of first refusal, if he doesnt want to spend part of his 20 million dollar a year salary on the ball, he doesnt have to, but he had his chance.

I don't know if it is money driven. I look at it as being more fiscally responsible.

Nobody prevented Jeter from taking the high road, and expressing his gratitude in a way that might really help the poor bastard.
