Gurley Fries
You can take our word for it, Gurley Fries... We've been in this business for a long time now. Adversity happens, losses pile up, your fans get whiny, and the local beat writers get a little nit-picky with distasteful interview questions. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that in the world of fantasy football, winning is the easiest way to silence all the critics out there!
