    Red Sox Red Sox shirt buried in New Yankee Stadium?

    A construction worker on a concrete crew at the new Yankee Stadium secretly buried a Red Sox T-shirt under the future visiting clubhouse in an effort to jinx the Yankees, the New York Post reported Friday.

    The paper cited two construction workers it did not identify, saying they were not authorized to speak with the media. One of the workers said the T-shirt was poured in a slab in the visitor's clubhouse.

    "It sounds like a tall tale, and it would take more than a Red Sox T-shirt to put a curse on the Yankees," team spokesman Howard Rubenstein was quoted as saying.

    The Yankees move to the new ballpark in 2009.

    I would have written "2004 choke job" in the cement of the home dugout if I were a Red Sox fan.

    Wow, thats a nice move by the construction worker. I wonder if it could actually have an effect. Obviously it won't, but you know that it will be the first thing brought up by Red Sox fans if something happens in their favor.

    couldn't agree more GOLD POST! or better still, on the safety walls behind the catcher, so whenever the yankees go to pitch, they will be reminded of their choke job.

    I could be wrong but I think Mickey Mantle's third MVP trophy only sold for $125k! No way is this jersey worth more than that!
