Coach Talk

Roostrs
Yo, Roostrs, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this performance. Along with a 34.4-point victory, you also jumped up two spots in the league standings... squarely into the thick of playoff contention
CARDINAL & GOLD
Keep your head held high, CARDINAL & GOLD! Listen, we've been in this business long enough to know that every once in a while, free points just seem to randomly appear out of thin air. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, hmmm, alright; asking for an additional 35 points may be a bit on the excessive side.
