Coach Talk

Cocks
Whoa, Cocks, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this blowout. Not only did you win by 28+ points, you also jumped up two spots in the league standings!
Steel Reign
Look, we've been at it long enough to realize that occasionally, free points can just miraculously appear out of nowhere. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, okay; hoping for an extra 29 points may be a bit on the excessive side. Keep your head up, Steel Reign!
