This Has Gotten Really Silly
The NY Post is reporting that the Red Sox jersey buried at the new Yankee Stadium has been dug up. Two construction workers spent five hours yesterday jackhammering a part of the concourse and found the jersey (that's $880 worth of labor) with an excavation ceremony to be held today.
The Post did the guy who buried it no favors by publishing his name. Apparently, he also has mob ties, so maybe that will keep him from getting the "s--- kicked out of him" like Hank Steinbrenner wished for. For his part, the guy who buried the shirt wants to fight Hank in person and challenged Hank to meet him and bring Posada too because he hates Posada.
Now it is time for someone to make a positive out of this story and auction the jersey off for charity.
UPDATE: The shirt is on its way to the Jimmy Fund and they will auction it off.

what a shame
would have been a good story for years if he didn't reveal it until next year

Know something? If Ortiz breaks out of his slump after his jersey is dug up - I'm going to buy it from the charity auction and bury it again someplace else - and not tell anyone where. Anything to keep Papi cold ...
Wonder if this will work with a Papelbon jersey as well? Hmmm ...
