Coach Talk

Enforcers
You know, football is all about exploiting the mismatches. Our squad took that to heart this past week and literally tripled Boomtown Brawlers at the quarterback position (49.2 points to 15.75).
Boomtown Brawlers
Fortunately, Boomtown Brawlers, this week's problem is pretty easy to diagnose. Starting the Cleveland Browns defense and Ben Watson in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied over 167 points... let's all just move on from this and assume it's not going to happen again?
