Meanwhile, down in New York, they are going crazy over a report that a construction worked put a Red Sox jersey into the concrete mix at the new Yankee Stadium that is being built. Jay Fitz at Hub Blog has the delicious details,
Didn’t and don’t believe in curses. But I do like how New Yorkers are making fools of themselves — from the mayor on down — by going down the silly theatrical curse path. The Sox have really gotten in their heads. … FYI: The Yanks initially denied a Sox jersey was thrown into the cement mix at the new Yankees Stadium. The NYPost has pictures proving otherwise. The construction guy who did it sounds pretty funny. The witch part, though, is pure Shaughnessyesque. New Yorkers should be embarrassed. …
Sweet, sweet Schadenfreude.
UPDATE: Hub Blog says the Yankees had a work crew Jackhammer away at the house that Geroge built until they found the shirt and removed it. His summary,
New Yorkers have lost their minds.
If you don’t believe him,
They’ve turned into us.
