they aren't going to knock the stadium down, i believe its becoming part of our new hugeass mall. Something was said about making sure people don't have the chance to dig there.

What would really curse us is if they bury the working part of Teddy's brain under the stadium.

Olberdouche is full of shit, his "Source" is the interweb and he gets his information from Fark and Deadspin.

Figures that sack of shit Olberman would be the one to 'break' this story. Who really gives a flying fuck if this guy dropped an entire time capsule in the ground? I know...here's a few things that would have really put the whammy on The Evil Empire:

1- Copy of the Marilyn Monroe fellatio sex tape (to make Joe D, aka Mr. Coffee, turn in his grave)
2- Fritz Peterson and Mike Kekich before and after family photos
3- Ken Phelps card
4- David Wells' tooth/Rocco Graziosa's Online Booking Sheet/Take-home menu from Gracie's "fuckin'" Diner three-pack
5- Bloody sock used by Clemens to celebrate/clean-up post-first date with teenage country singer (see..I still can't think of this broad's name)

The upside is that when he moves back to Charlestown, Mass, he'll never have to pay for a beer again. And the upside is that without a job, he'll have plenty of time to drink said free beers. The only downside is that he's still 5'4", has goofy facial hair, and can't even get laid in Charlestown, Mass.

They're going to keep this story going until the new Giants Stadium gets built, at which time the dig for Hoffa begins.

"We all get a little cuckoo sometimes, Hank. I used to be like you. Berating personnel until they cried, calling managers on the field during a game, threatening to tear down my stadium just to find a worthless piece of paper. Then I found a way to relax. I've got two words to say to you, Hank... Hot Tub!"

If you really want to jinx the Yankees, just say the same thing they say at the same time. Plus, they'll owe you a Coke.

Olbermann also quoted the guy as saying that the scorecard and jersey were "the tip of the iceberg," which probably means the guy spent his one day on the job sinking things into wet cement every 30 yards.
