Apparently the Yankess went into full panic mode regarding the Red Sox jersey buried in the foundation by a dumbass worker who blabbed about it, and they have now found and unearthed the jersey.

 

I wouldn't call it panic mode. If the Sox were building a new stadium and somebody put a Tigers or Cubs jersey in the foundation, I'd expect us to do the same thing to get rid of the poison.

This is a HUGE story in NYC. The post actually ran a front page full cover story about it on Friday, and when the story broke it was also front page, although it was just a sidebar.

 

I don't think you can underestimate how much people love baseball on the east coast. Coming from the midwest it's been a great shock. Baseball is king here and even the Giants' championship keeps football a very distant 2nd.

 

Today I was playing ultimate frisbee in prospect park and like 3-4 of the guys on my team got into a very in depth conversatino about the mets and phillies this year. It's so great to see baseball so loved. s***, you can't swing a dead cat in NYC without hitting someone in a Mets or Yankees cap.

If the Sox did act that way, I would seriously have to re-consider being a fan.

I don't know if that's generally true about the East. The Eagles are king in Philly (although the Phils are big, too -- everyone knows how Philadelphia fans are), the Ravens and Redskins in Baltimore and Washington (though of course the Nats are pretty new). And I think many Jets fans would disagree. It just depends on the area.

The guy who did this is a moron. He went to work there, for one day, just to do this. Its cub-fan like.

I just liked it where the moron and Hank Steinbrenner were verbally sparring through ESPN's anchor and the anchor has to keep a straight face while reporting it.

 

Steinbrenner: "His construction guys should have kicked his ass over that."

 

Moron: "Tell him that I'm going to kick his ass!"
