[NU Sports] I'm joining the Amish sect.

[Ben Adler]

Sorry, but as a fan of both the Giants and Wildcats, I can't let the banjo 
hitter comment go without a response...

Fans of the Cardiac Cats are uniquely positioned to appreciate the Giants.  
Why?  Well, the Giants unofficial motto is "Giants Baseball ... Torture!"  And 
as someone who's seen both teams play (a lot of) close games, I find them eerily 
similar...
