Coach Talk

lefty's Crazy Team
Bravo, lefty's Crazy Team. Good job deploying a team that netted 160 points this past week. Let's take this win in stride, tip our hat to the GM of DJ Moore Cowbell, and continue marching forward to the My Fantazy league title.
DJ Moore Cowbell
Just one field goal on three attempts? Sounds like Zane Gonzalez may have just kicked himself back into the free agent pool following this effort.
