    sorry... I mean, I'm glad for the Cubs, but I always want to see the home team win their home opener.

    Opening Day at Fenway Pahk

    That Ring Ceremony was fantastic!! Love that the Celtics, Pats and Bruins were part of it - just like in 2005. My favorites - Bill Russell and #4, Bobby Orr.

    And Buckner throwing out the first pitch

    Well of course when I go to the game the Yanks lost. They won the next day and lost today. This might not be the best season for them.

    Hey, what was with the airshow over Fenway on opening day?

    THAT was cool, too bad the pilot got grounded.

    ----------

    Great story about the Yanks new stadium. Apparently a construction worker
    buried a Bosox shirt under a concrete pillar near the home dressing room, along with a curse.

    Apparently the pilot was late, so flew too fast. That maneuver is supposed to be done at 5000 feet, not 1200.

    As for that shirt - why didn't they bury it under the Yankees club house instead of the visitors?

    I wasn't clear-

    The word is that the construction worker is a Bosox fan and the curse is on the Yankees never to win another series again.

    ------

    1200 feet?

    I wish I could have been there.

    So much for the curse . . . . .

    The New York Yankees have ended a construction worker's attempt to jinx their new stadium with a buried Boston Red Sox jersey.

    Team officials watched Sunday as construction workers removed the jersey, with slugger David Ortiz's name on it, from 2 feet of concrete in a service corridor of the stadium that's under construction.

    The team says a construction worker — who is a Red Sox fan — recently buried the jersey there while on the job. Two other supervisors found the tattered shirt Saturday.

    The Yankees plan to donate the jersey to charity, and may pursue a lawsuit against the construction worker.
