Coach Talk

4 Cam 629
Listen 4 Cam 629, the good news is that we took this matchup by almost three points. The *even better* news is that we know we're stronger than this, as our scoring average through three weeks was 118.36. So yes, we're happy to have earned this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Dickon's Revenge
Trust us on this one, Dickon's Revenge... We've been in this industry for a long time now. Adversity happens, losses pile up, your fans get whiny, and the local beat writers get a little nit-picky with distasteful interview questions. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that when it comes to fantasy football, winning really does cure all!
