Wait, Testwell did something dishonest? I don’t believe this. What’s next, a Sox fan will think Pedroia is the MVP?

Poor Testwell. Never recovered from the stigma they acquired by inadvertantly giving the mayorship to Giuliani after the great FroYo debacle of 1993.

  Meh, I think the horrible advice Lloyd Braun was giving to Mayor Dinkins was the real culprit in that election.

Testwell Laboraties, Inc., the company originally hired to provide concrete for the new Yankee Stadium…
Actually, just a quick correction. Testwell doesn’t provide the concrete, they just test it.

  This is correct, all a testing company like Testwell does is show up on site when the concrete is being poured, fill some cylinders with concrete, and take them to their lab to measure the weight required to crush the cylinders. This is kind of a scary place to find corruption, especially if the concrete contractors were the ones paying them off.

  “Don’t mean to pat myself on the back…”

  Actually, that’s precisely what you mean to do.
