Coach Talk

Firestorm
Whoa, Firestorm, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this shellacking. Along with a nearly 26-point victory, you also climbed a staggering three spots in the league standings!
Spokane Sith
Do your best take solace in the fact that your generosity didn't go unnoticed, Spokane Sith. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like Firestorm succeed this week. Who knows, maybe they'll return the favor by choosing a couple of defenses early in next year's draft... something like that!
