It's a T-Shirt

In case you missed it, the New York Yankees, a rich and storied franchise, learned that there was a Red Sox T-shirt in the cement foundation under the visitor's dugout of their stadium. Naturally, they spent $50,000 digging it up and replacing the huge divot(s). I'm a sports nut and even I think that is straight up, overblown stupidity.

How in the hell, in this relatively rational society in which we do crack and shoot each other, could any megarich corporation be this fucking boneheaded?

It's a T-shirt. It's not gonna hurt anything. It's not even self aware.

The fact of the matter, in my opinion (which I guess means that this can in no way be construed as a fact because it is my opinion but whatever), is that we human beings are a collection of fucktards.

How else can you explain it?

Anyway, here is a list of shit I could have done with $50,000 had the Yankees chosen to ask my opinion on what would be a better use for $50,000 than removing a Red Sox T-shirt from their stadium foundation.

1) 100 quality hookers
2) 50 awesome hookers
3) 20 high end hookers
4) A boat
5) A birthday party for Babe Ruth's uniform (complete with hookers)
6) A trip to some place nice (with nice hookers)
7) A trip to some place that sucks (still better than doing construction)
8) A collection of ballpoint pens
9) Really, fucking anything
10) A fireworks show
11) 100,000 kegs of beer
12) A money fight
13) A money fire
14) Two million Gasparilla beads (pictured)
15) Fuck, even donating it to charity would be a better use

Folks, I know that some of you out there are kind and rational people (not that being kind has anything to do with my attempt at making a point but you know, some of you seem kind) but for the love of all that can be conceived as slightly being worth anything worth cherishing, if you honestly think ripping up the stadium foundation to get a T-shirt that never has and never will hurt anyone is a good idea, I want you to promise me right now that you will never run for office or teach children anything.

And I mean anything.

A fucking T-shirt?

Well you should know how superstitious of a sport baseball is, I'm sure dumber shit has been done for more pointless causes.

But yeah, fucktards.

Personal pics make your blog even more addictive!

My boyfriend once tried to see how many beads he could hang on his erect penis.

yeah but $50,000 is nothing to a franchise like the Yankees. They probably make at least 10 times that for every game they go farther into the World Series.

This isn't even superstitious, just completely retarded. I didn't hear about this either, but I still hate the Yankees.

I read about this and thought it might be the dumbest thing I had ever read. Hank Steinbrenner was talking about pressing charges against the guy?

Charges for what? Being AWESOME!?!?

The Yankees are now the New York Tampons. Why? Because they're all stuck up bitches.

this was front page news here in NYC. I just wish both teams would shut up.

Guys, the 50c beer thing was clearly a typo, mistake, brainfart or what have you. But if I did know where to get beer that cheap, do you think I would tell you.

KC, some Yanks and Sox fans think they're the only two teams in the league. ESPN supports this theory wholeheartedly.

X, my mother is white but my father is more of a tobacco-stained deep yellow.

Duli, uhh... okay.

JB, if they make a case out of this that makes the news, I'll flip out, but I won't be surprised.

Did you see how they sold the shirt on eBay?

Go Twins.
