Coach Talk

Mutinous Apes
Whoa, Mutinous Apes, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this shellacking. Not only did you win by nearly 64 points, you also jumped up a couple of spots in the league standings. Nice job!
Warm Bodies
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's excusable to go 0-for-2: A hitter's line in baseball, a pair of Shaquille O'Neal free throws, and a double-fault in tennis. That's just about it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Seems like Brett Maher might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after this performance.
