Coach Talk

bubbasboyz
Hey, finding mismatches is the key to football, right? Our squad found one this past week and thoroughly outscored Steel City Rocker at the quarterback position (82.82 points to 22.18).
Steel City Rocker
Look, Steel City Rocker, we've been in this industry long enough to know that sometimes points just seem to randomly appear out of nowhere. Then in some cases (like this week) they don't! Okay, okay... asking for an extra 72 points may be a bit overzealous.
