Coach Talk

NY Giants /Big Blue
Assembling a starting crew that recorded more than 412 points this past week... we consider that to be a job well done.
Destroyers
Do your best take solace in the fact that your generosity this week did not go unnoticed, Destroyers. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like NY Giants /Big Blue succeed. Who knows, maybe you'll play them again after they've clinched a playoff spot, and they forget to update their lineup that week to return the favor!
