Welcome to The Can of Corn, hosted by Michael Stephens and Darren Shimp! We have a great show for you this week, packed with injury updates and keys for bettering your team, both for this year and next! Episode 17 will be remembered as the episode Darren bashes the Olympics, and would rather get a root canal than watch Olympic trampoline. Lend us an ear, grab your glove and head for the outfield - here comes the Can of Corn!
