Coach Talk
One--Eyed--Willie
Putting together a lineup that produced 289.78 points this past week... we consider that to be a job well done. We should keep this momentum going as we step into our next challenge in Week 4.
Gringo's Team
Look, Gringo's Team, we've been in this industry long enough to realize that sometimes points can just randomly appear out of nowhere. Then sometimes (like this week) they don't! You know, the more I think about it... perhaps asking for an extra 35 points is a bit on the excessive side.
