Coach Talk

Mushroom Capital
Well, Mushroom Capital, a tie isn't exactly the ideal scenario we'd all hoped for, but at least it's not a loss, eh? Consider this fair warning: if you think it could potentially happen again in the postseason, be sure to know your league's tiebreaker procedures!
The Bonesmashers
Here's a list of scenarios where it's (borderline) acceptable to go 0-for-2 in sports: A double-fault in tennis, a hitter's line in baseball, and the Jazz facing MJ's Bulls in the Finals. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Sounds like Brett Maher might have just kicked himself back into the free agent pool after this performance.
