Coach Talk

Whackers
Kudos to you, Whackers. Putting together a lineup that recorded over 129 points in Week 14.
Dead Again
You can rest easy knowing that your generosity this week didn't go unnoticed, Dead Again. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like Whackers succeed. Who knows, maybe you'll play them again after they've clinched a playoff spot, and they forget to update their lineup that week to return the favor!
