Only in New York!
>> Monday
So last week, some prankster construction worker, who's evidently a big Red Sox fan, burried a David Ortiz jersey in a concrete pour that would have been part of the Yankees' locker room in New Yankee Stadium.

And when word broke of this practical joker's mischievous hijinks, it caused panic among Yankee fans everywhere and prompted an official statement from the Yankees on the matter--roughly, "Posh! That never happened and there's no such thing as a 'jinx.'"

And then this weekend--after a grueling 18-hour interrogation with the construction crew that involved (I'm guessing now) waterboarding, water deprivation, Chinese water torture, and a bunch of other water-related stuff--the Yankees' brass learned that the prank actually occurred, as well as the whereabouts of the jersey, and ordered the jinxing agent unearthed from the stadium's foundation.

Seems a little ridiculous, huh? These are grown adults with well-paying jobs? I mean, I'd love to see that change-order, am I right? Well--wait, what? Oh weird... someone just emailed me a scanned copy of it. How do you like that?
Wow, organized labor is expensive in the Bronx. $57/hour for a jackhammer guy?

Hey in anonymous' defense we've come to rely on YCS for all our factual sports and news needs. If you put it up here we assume it's either an angry rant or totally factual.

From now on, assume 1. nonsense, 2. inaccuracy, 3. childishness, then 4. something else, possibly.
