Coach Talk

DJ Moore Cowbell
Assembling a lineup that won by over 70 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right.
Lannister
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's excusable to go 0-for-2: A hitter's line in baseball, the Jazz facing MJ's Bulls in the NBA Finals, and a double-fault in tennis. That's just about it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Seems like Wil Lutz might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after that sort of effort.
