Coach Talk

Peoria Hurricanes
Now that's what we call righting the ship... The GM of Peoria Hurricanes shrugged off their three-game losing skid by logging a whopping 125 points this past week!
Melonville LaRues
Look, Melonville LaRues, I've been in this industry long enough to know that sometimes points can just magically appear out of nowhere. Then sometimes (*cough cough*, Week 10) they don't! Hmmm, alright... maybe asking for an extra 16 points is a bit excessive.
