    There are some things I just don't care to know about.

    One of those things would be Carlos Guillen's bad case of 'roids. And I'm not talking about performance enhancers either.

    The embarrassing life of a pro athlete. Sure you make lots of money. But everyone knows about your butt pains too.

    Clearly, you weren't around for the 1980 World Series. It was educational in a sense. George Brett's hemorrhoid saga introduced me to the affliction. Nothing like hearing about someone's asshole for a week straight.
