Ortiz jersey up for auction after failed curse attempt

Some might call it a curse, others might call it a cure for cancer.

The Boston Red Sox's official charity, the Jimmy Fund, is auctioning off the David Ortiz jersey that was buried under the New York Yankees' new stadium by a Boston fan trying to curse its American League rivals.

The auction began Thursday on eBay and lasts one week. The starting bid is $500.

All proceeds will go to the children's cancer charity, which is affiliated with Boston's Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.
