Coach Talk

Questionable Defense
Good work deploying a lineup that won by more than 24 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done. We should tip our cap to the GM of Hingle McCringlebery, take this victory in stride, and continue on our way towards the Saginaw First 2 league title.
Hingle McCringlebery
