Coach Talk

Fear The Fumbles
Nice work assembling a lineup that recorded 168.68 points this past week. We deem that to be a job done right.
#1 STUNNA
Do your best take solace in the fact that your generosity didn't go unnoticed. It takes a true winner to help someone like Fear The Fumbles succeed this week... and when the time comes, maybe they'll return the favor by choosing a couple of kickers early in next year's draft (something like that). Keep your head up, #1 STUNNA!
