Coach Talk

Bad Bologna
Props on deploying a starting crew that produced almost 115 points this past week. We deem that to be a job done right.
Christopher's Team
Don't get too distraught, Christopher's Team! Sometimes lady luck just isn't on your side. Ya know... if fantasy football didn't provide a real challenge, then winning wouldn't be as awesome, right??
