Coach Talk

The Sleepy Bananas
Bravo, The Sleepy Bananas. Nice work assembling a lineup that won by 49.5 points this past week.
Little Sissy Girls
With only five receptions this past week, the starting RBs for Little Sissy Girls clearly need to smooth things over with their QBs... and remind them to check down more frequently.
