Coach Talk

Frank's Freaks

Chin up, Bofa Dez Knuts! Look, I've been at it long enough to realize that every once in a while, free points just seem to magically appear out of nowhere. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, hmmm, alright; hoping for an extra 42 points may be a bit on the excessive side.
