Coach Talk

Tommy P
You know, the key to football is taking advantage of the mismatches. With stellar performances by James Conner and Kareem Hunt, our squad made that a point of emphasis this past week. We tripled Big Ballers up at the running back position (49.4 points to 14.4). Conner had 129 total yards and two TDs, while Hunt logged 185 yards.
Big Ballers
Take my word for it (since I'm a coach who's constantly been on the hot seat)... If this "fantasy GM" thing doesn't work out, you can take comfort in the fact that there's always that scrappy Assistant Coaching job available at the local Pop Warner team down the street!
