The Curse of the Sox is No More
"Crisis, and curse, averted.
It took about five hours, but the Red Sox jersey that was embedded in the concrete of the Yankees' new stadium to place a curse on the New York franchise has been unearthed with jackhammers.
Earlier this week, a construction worker who is a Boston fan working on the concrete crew at the $1.3 billion new Yankee Stadium buried a Red Sox shirt in with the concrete foundation, in the hopes of jinxing the New York Yankees' new home, the New York Post reported.
The newspaper reported Sunday that two workers approached a construction manager with what they thought was the location of the jersey. After digging a two-foot by three-foot hole, the jersey was found."
...This story is just too funny. I can't believe that they actually went to dig the jersey out. I would not even consider this the reason for a curse because it would have come 8 seasons after their last championship. Not only that, but it is going to cost a hell of a lot of money just to dig out some stupid jersey. It is reported the Yanks might take legal action against the construction worker.
