Coach Talk

Cabernet Crazies
Good job assembling a lineup that won by 88.7 points this past week. We did what we needed to do and took care of business. We should tip our cap to the GM of Warlocks, take this W in stride, and continue the march towards a fantasy championship.
Warlocks
The problem in Week 4 was pretty easy to diagnose, Warlocks. Choosing to start Stephen Hauschka in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll all put this in the rear-view mirror and assume something like this won't be happening again.
