Coach Talk

Joe's Team
Putting together a starting crew that won by more than 53 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we had to do. We should take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of The Mighty Mouser, and continue the march towards a fantasy title.
The Mighty Mouser
You can take comfort in the fact that your generosity did not go unnoticed. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like Joe's Team succeed this week... and perhaps one day, they can return the favor by choosing a couple of defenses early in next year's draft (something along those lines). Keep your head up, The Mighty Mouser!
