Coach Talk

Dome Patrollers
Listen, Dome Patrollers, we do respect the confidence. It's a bold move to play a player with zero points (Geronimo Allison), while still getting a win! We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the early regular season. Try it in the playoffs and we'll be toast.
Treasure Hunters
You can take our word for it, Treasure Hunters... We've been in this industry for a long time now. Obstacles pop up, you suffer some defeats, your fans get whiny, and the local beat writers get a little nit-picky with distasteful interview questions. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that in the world of fantasy football, winning is the easiest way to silence all the critics out there!
