Coach Talk

Iceman king Carsons
Way to shrug off that three-game winless skid, Iceman king Carsons! Each fantasy team will surely be faced with adversity somewhere along the way... keep pushing forward and good things will continue to happen.
Randy Mahomie Savage
Here's a list of scenarios where it's borderline acceptable to go 0-for-2 in sports: A hitter's line in baseball, a pair of Dwight Howard free throws, and a double-fault in tennis. That's just about it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Seems like Stephen Gostkowski might have just toe-bashed himself to the waiver wire after that sort of performance.
