"In August, a Red Sox T-shirt was poured in a slab in the visitor's clubhouse. It's the curse of the Yankees," one worker told the Post. "Nobody knows about it. It's in the floors, it's buried."

Hey reporter guy, can you keep a secret? <_<

And Milo, I thought of that too. Why not put it under the home clubhouse?

Way to think fast Red Sox fan. Too bad the chemicals used to make modern concrete will have the t-shirt eaten into nothingness by the middle of this summer.

[Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008

This story is about as dumb as the masters being the lead story on ESPN.com for the past 3 days.

Or the Women's NCAA basketball tourney the 5 days before that.....

Or the NHL Playoffs all this week. Wait, they were hardly mentioned.

To be fair, it's currently on the front page of si.com, cbssports.com, nbcsports.com and foxsports.com. Then again, why is this even a front page story on the New York Post... oh yeah, because it is the New York Post....

I saw, I came, I left.

So, who's worse? The worker burying the jersey, or the fact that they wasted more than five hours plus the cost of additional concrete to unearth the thing? And, unless a jersey could have compromised the structural integrity of the concrete, do the Yankees honestly think they can sue a worker for the cost to prevent a curse?

Or...how about Steinbrenner's comments encouraging violence against the worker? Nothing like promoting a felony..you know?

What was the guy thinking when he told it to a reporter?

This really isn't that big a deal and isn't worthy of so much attention. Guess the Yankees are afraid of a "Curse of the T-Shirt" 86 years from now. And as always, Hank Steinbrenner handles it in a mature way. :P

This guys knows about felonies... he's already been convicted in the past of running numbers for the Gambino crime family. Sounds like a real upstanding gentleman...

Guilty.

The defendant is sentenced to an hour of being slapped upside the head with a rolled up Sunday edition of the New York Post for wasting all of our time.

I will say that curses can be entertaining to learn about. For example, there is a reason Colonel Sanders is an object of menace in Japanese pop culture.
