Coach Talk

Gnaperville Gnus
Wow, Gnaperville Gnus, you put the rest of the league on notice with this victory. Not only did you win by 18 points, you also climbed a ridiculous three places in the league standings!
Peoria Hurricanes
Recording just a couple of receptions on six targets this past week, it appears that the starting running backs for Peoria Hurricanes should investigate why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
