Coach Talk

theLADYkillers*
Good work deploying a lineup that won by a whopping 61.5 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right.
Mustangs
Don't get too distraught, Mustangs! Take my word for it (coming from a coach who's experienced life on the hot seat)... You can take comfort in the fact that there's always that volunteer Assistant Coaching job available at the local Pop Warner team down the road!
