Coach Talk

Mission accomplished, Go4Pin. Nice job deploying a lineup that won by 15.78 points this past week. Let's take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Dallas Dwarf Tossers, and continue marching forward to a fantasy championship.
Dallas Dwarf Tossers
Look, Dallas Dwarf Tossers, I've been in this business long enough to know that sometimes points just seem to magically appear out of nowhere. Then sometimes, like in your matchup this week, they don't! You know, the more I think about it... asking for an extra 16 points may be a little excessive.
