Coach Talk

Tecmo Allstars
Putting together a lineup that produced over 114 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we had to do.
TD's N' Beer
Trust us, TD's N' Beer... 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 in the world of fantasy football, winning really does cure all!
