Coach Talk

Omaha Orangatans
Bravo, Omaha Orangatans. Nice job fielding a lineup that won by almost 24 points this past matchup. We should tip our cap to the GM of Round Rock Kitty, take this victory in stride, and continue the march towards a fantasy championship.
Round Rock Kitty
Yo, Round Rock Kitty, did your pass-catchers drop too many balls in practice or something? With only nine total targets this past week, our starting receiver crew (two WR, one TE) clearly need to get on their QBs' good sides this week in practice.
