I just read this story and couldnt help but think about how it would cool to own this jersey if it happened to be covered in some ketchup. As I get to the bottom of the article this is what it says,

"Presumably, as Late Show writer Eric Stangel joked on Twitter (http://twitter.com/#!/EricStangel/status/55438347228815360), so that the Yankees and Steiner Sports could sell them as "game-used" for the low, low price of $299."

Sorry, for those of you that didn't read the article, the joke is about Steiner selling gu onion rings for $299, not the jersey :)

Hey, that's my joke!

I just read somewhere that Eric Stangel was voted one of the top ten people to follow on Twitter to read sports related tweets. Doesn't sounds like a joke writer to me.

Considering his weight issues, I think Jones may have been coming up with more onion rings than baseballs for quite some time.
