Coach Talk

Keeper Reapers
Kudos to you, Keeper Reapers. Fielding a team that won by 18 points this past week. We should tip our cap to the GM of V for ..., take this win in stride, and continue pushing forward to the Vince Lombardi Keeper League championship.
V for ...
Keep your head held high, V for ...! Trust me on this one (coming from a coach who's frequently lived life on the hot seat)... You can always fall back on that pro-bono Graduate Assistant job open at the community college down the road!
