Coach Talk

Yellow Snow
Hey Yellow Snow, the good news is that we won this matchup by more than 10 points. The better news is that we've proven we're even stronger than this, as our scoring average through 13 weeks was 100.08. So while we're happy to have gotten this victory, let's "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Gone Nuts
Trust us on this one, Gone Nuts... We've been in this business for a long time now. Obstacles pop up, you suffer some defeats, your fans get whiny, and the local beat writers get a little nit-picky with distasteful columns in the paper. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that in the world of fantasy football, winning really does cure all!
