Coach Talk

Jokers Wild
You know, football is all about spotting the mismatches. Our team took that to heart this past week and thoroughly outscored Goldfinger Slingers at the quarterback position (93.55 points to 34.88).
Goldfinger Slingers
Don't get too down on yourself, Goldfinger Slingers! Listen, we've been in this business long enough to realize that every once in a while, free points just seem to miraculously show up out of nowhere. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, hmmm, alright... asking for an extra 69 points may be a bit excessive.
