An Open Letter to Yankee Fans Who are Upset about the David Ortiz Jersey Prank
Dear Yankee fans,
Get a freaking grip. Any of you who are whining about the Boston fan (Gino Castignoli) who buried a David Ortiz jersey under a cement slab in the new Yankee stadium, needs to look up the word “prank” in the dictionary and take a freaking pill of chillness.
C’mon, you have to admit, for a Red Sox fan with limited cranial capacity, that was a pretty good one.
So stop yer cryin. You’re a Yankee fan man! Time to do what a real Yankee fan would do, which is plan a little payback prank of your own.
Here are a few suggestions:
1. Secretly replace all the urinal mats in Fenway bathrooms with new urinal mats that have the Red Sox logo on the underside.
2. During Yankee games at Fenway, hire a plane to fly a banner over the stadium with the following two words: “BUCKY DENT.” (For Mets’ games, the banner should say, “BILL BUCKNER.”)
3. Tell Manny Ramirez that the league has decided to allow 4 strikes for every at bat. Don’t worry, Manny’ll believe it.
4. At the next Fenway home game, bind and gag and stuff into a closet whoever is supposed to throw the honorary first pitch. Have David Tyree throw it instead.
And last but not least,
5. Bury a David Ortiz jersey under a cement slab in Fenway – with David Ortiz still in it!
That’s all I have for now, anyone else?

my favorite part of the story on cnn was that they were considering proposing criminal charges against the guy who put the jersey in the cement. glad they got the nypd on that, since i’m sure there isn’t much else going on in town that might need their attention.

Can you believe that crap? The people of New York need to get a sense of humor. I saw something on the news today where a field reporter knocked on the door of Castiglioni. He wasn’t there but his daughter was and the reporter said, (to the best of my recollection), “what do you think of your father having done this,” and she said, a Boston fan no doubt, “I think he’s the greatest father in the world!”
Then the reporter, all aghast with what he just heard said, “can you believe this! She’s happy that he did it,” as if it was a human head he had buried in the concrete.

I’ve got a better idea, how about we leave them buried and Yankee fans can just keep walking all over them for eternity.

I think it was a splendid prank! GO SOX!!! Any Yankees that need a crying towel I think we still have some available from the 2004 American League Championship Series ass-whooping.

First of all, Vixy, a 4-3 score in games hardly can be counted as an ass-whooping. I think the official term for that series was “great comeback.”
Secondly, For Yankee fans, pennants and World Series rings are a dime a dozen. We have so many we would no sooner cry over losing a pennant than we would losing a pair of scissors.
You may think there’s been this rivalry all these years between the sox and the yanks, but the reality is, for us, you guys really haven’t been much of a rival.
I’m just sayen.
