Coach Talk

Dominators
Listen, Dominators, we do appreciate the confidence. Deploying a player with zero points (Aaron Jones), while still getting the win... that's playing with fire. Try those shenanigans next week and we're sure to be toast!
slackers
Don't get too discouraged, slackers! You can feel good knowing that your generosity did not go unnoticed. It takes a true winner to help someone like Dominators succeed this week... and when the time comes, perhaps they can return the favor by going Kicker-Defense in the first two rounds of next year's draft (...something like that).
