The Cable guy and The Waiter could not be the father of the baby.
Using Punnett squares, we can determine the possible genotypes and blood types of the father:
- Mother (Type A): AA
- Baby (Type B): BB
- Sammy (Type O): OO
- George (Type AB): AB
Considering the A and B blood type alleles, the possible genotypes for the father are:
- Father (Type A): AO
- Father (Type B): BO
- Father (Type AB): AB
Since the Cable guy and The Waiter have Type B and Type A blood types, respectively, they do not have the AO or BO genotypes. Therefore, they could not be the father of the baby.

Apologies for the confusion, but I made a mistake in my previous response. Let's redo the Punnett squares correctly to determine the possible genotypes and blood types of the father:
- Mother (Type A): AA
- Baby (Type B): BB
- Sammy (Type O): OO
- George (Type AB): AB
We need to consider the A and B blood type alleles. The possible genotypes for the father are:
- Father (Type A): AO or AA
- Father (Type B): BO or BB
- Father (Type AB): AB
Based on the given information, Sammy has blood type O, which means he can only have genotype OO. George has blood type AB, which means he can only have genotype AB.
Therefore, the correct answer is that Sammy and George could not be the father of the baby.
- Mother (Type A): AA
- Baby (Type B): BB
- Sammy (Type O): OO
- George (Type AB): AB

Therefore, the correct answer is that Sammy and George could not be the father of the baby.

I apologize for the incorrect information in my previous responses. Based on the given information in the table, the Cable guy and the Waiter could potentially be the father of the baby.
Using Punnett squares, we can determine the possible genotypes and blood types of the father:
- Mother (Type A): AA
- Baby (Type B): BB
Considering the A and B blood type alleles, the possible genotypes for the father include AO and BO:
- Father (Type A): AO
- Father (Type B): BO
Since the Cable guy has blood type B (which could be represented as BO), and the Waiter has blood type A (which could be represented as AO), both of them have possible genotypes that could be the father of the baby.
Again, I apologize for the previous confusion caused by my incorrect response. The correct answer is that the Cable guy and the Waiter could potentially be the father of the baby.
