By Michael Stephens, Fantasy Football Cafe Regular
Welcome to The Can of Corn, hosted by Michael Stephens and Darren Shimp! This week, the hosts mock the Red Sox and Rangers for their pitching deficiencies and peruse the moves made post-deadline. A lack of e-mails brings a level of sadness to Michael and Darren that they cannot even discuss on the show. Episode 16 will be remembered as the episode Darren bashes the Olympics, and would rather watch the Little League World Series than Olympic gymnastics. Lend us an ear, grab your glove and head for the outfield - here comes the Can of Corn!
