Coach Talk

Trut Miners
Kudos on assembling a lineup that nearly exceeded triple digits this past week. We consider that to be a job done right. We should tip our cap to the GM of Krasna Lipa Patriots, take this victory in stride, and continue pushing forward to a fantasy championship.
Krasna Lipa Patriots
Well, Krasna Lipa Patriots, this week's problem is fairly easy to identify. Starting Aldrick Rosas in a fantasy matchup where your opponent put up 99.66 points... let's consider this to be a learning experience and all agree that it won't happen again?
