Coach Talk

Saltyy's Chargers
Bravo, Saltyy's Chargers. Fielding a team that won by almost 71 points this past week. We should keep this momentum as we move on to a tricky matchup in Week 2.

Obstacles pop up, you suffer some defeats, your fans get whiny, and the local beat writers get a little testy with all of their questions. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that when it comes to fantasy football, winning really does cure all.
