Coach Talk

Team Fabs
Listen Team Fabs, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped lately, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 143.26 points through Week 11, our crew has obviously proven that it's even better than the 109.35 we needed to win this past week!
TakingMyTalents2PFL
Even though we weren't able to earn a victory in Week 12, let's remember that we still have a bounty of fantasy football goodness to be thankful for.
