Coach Talk

dave's Standout Team
You know dave's Standout Team, I'm a "glass half full" kind of coach. While some may harp on the fact that our scoring's slipped lately, I'll choose to spin this in a positive direction. Averaging 103.93 points through Week 13, our crew has obviously proven that it's even stronger than the 78.34 we needed to win this past week!
Parks&REC
Luckily, Week 14's problem isn't exactly rocket science, Parks&REC. Going with Damien Williams and Kerryon Johnson in what was ultimately a tight fantasy matchup... let's just move on from this and assume that something like this won't happen again?
