Coach Talk

WarHorse
Here's a list of scenarios where it's acceptable to go 0-for-2 in sports: A hitter's line in baseball, the Jazz facing MJ's Bulls in the NBA Finals, and a double-fault in tennis. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Sounds like Brett Maher may have just kicked himself back into the free agent pool after that sort of effort.
Blue Mountain State
With only a couple of catches on five targets this past week, the starting running backs for Blue Mountain State obviously should look into why their quarterbacks are giving them the cold shoulder.
