More than just buried Red Sox jerseys now -- the company that was supposed to test the strength of the concrete poured at the Yankees new stadium, and other big projects in the city, may have been fudging their results.

From the NY Times:

"Manhattan prosecutors are investigating whether the leading concrete testing company in the New York area, which has been hired to measure and analyze the strength of the concrete poured at some of the biggest construction projects in the city, failed to do some tests and falsified others, officials involved in the inquiry said on Friday.

The investigation has uncovered problems with tests the company conducted on concrete poured over the last two years at the new Yankee Stadium in the Bronx and the foundation of the Freedom Tower in Lower Manhattan, along with as many as a dozen other projects, said several of the officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the investigation is continuing."

I'd laugh hysterically if their new stadium fell down*

*Disclaimer: As long as no one was hurt.

I'd laugh even more hysterically if they had to pull the whole thing down and start over*

*except MLB would let them count that against their revenue-sharing bill, too.
