Coach Talk

Kablarski OVNOVI
Bravo, Kablarski OVNOVI. Putting together a starting crew that earned 78 points this past matchup. Let's keep this momentum rolling as we move on to our Week 2 matchup.
Maharaja Daughters
Talk about old-school ground n' pound. As a group, the starting RBs for Maharaja Daughters collectively recorded three receptions on only four measly targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to dial up some screen plays in Week 2!
