Coach Talk

owen's Unreal Team
Good work, owen's Unreal Team. Fielding a lineup that tallied more than 145 points in Week 15.
Caiden's Team
Listen, Caiden's Team, I've been in this industry long enough to know that sometimes points can just magically show up out of nowhere. Then sometimes (like this week) they don't! You know, the more I think about it... maybe asking for an extra 28 points is a bit overzealous.
