...that might be kicked by Cleveland's famed Tackle Lou ("The Toe") Groza. But Layne & Co. had other ideas. Detroit's huge (average: 235 Ibs.), hard-charging line forced Graham to fumble soon after the opening kickoff.

The workers (undeveloped females) never mate, but they seem to have a variety of social activities that take the place of sex.
