Coach Talk

vipers
Nice job, vipers. Bravo on assembling a starting crew that recorded 156 points this past matchup. Let's maintain this momentum as we move on to our Week 7 matchup.
Wayne's World
Take my word for it, Wayne's World... Since I'm a coach who's constantly on the hot seat: if this whole "fantasy football GM" thing doesn't work out, you can always fall back on that scrappy Assistant Coaching gig available at the local Pop Warner team down the street!
