Yes, the kwa truly is a third world country.
The Yankees- Red Sox rivalry now runs a bit deeper, literally. Approximately two feet deeper. That was the amount of concrete workers had to drill through to unearth a white No. 34 David Ortiz Red Sox jersey buried by a construction worker at an extraction ceremony yesterday at the new Yankee Stadium.
After an anonymous tip verified the existence and location of the jersey Saturday, workers from Turner Construction Co. drilled for five hours and then 30 minutes more yesterday to complete the excavation. Although the jersey was buried with "bad motives," the Yankees said, they wanted to turn the circumstances into something beneficial. Yankees president Randy Levine said the jersey will be cleaned and restored, then auctioned off along with a Yankees shirt for a pediatric cancer charity in Boston.
