Aah, they're just crabs, they give you cancer. (probably not true
unless you get them from really polluted waters)

The Sox have TB and Tejas to worry about. The M's, well,
they will have to count on a multi-mega-collapse. Not too
likely with some fairly strong teams ahead of them.

I'm in the position of having to root for you and the
