Coach Talk

Spokane Sith
You know Spokane Sith, we're "glass half full" kind of coaches. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring output has decreased a bit lately, we'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 120.95 points through Week 12, our crew has shown it's certainly capable of outperforming the 88.42 we needed for this past week's win!
Mananas
With not a single target thrown in their direction this past week the starting RBs for Mananas should look into why their quarterbacks are giving them the cold shoulder.
