Coach Talk

DuckGang
Nice job overcoming that three-game losing streak, DuckGang! Every fantasy team will surely be faced with adversity somewhere along the way... keep showing resilience like this and take things one week at a time.
Arnold Palmers
When it's all said and done, only one team's ultimately gonna win this thing, Arnold Palmers... you may as well bow out gracefully now and begin strategizing for next season, eh?
