Coach Talk

Gardettos
Deploying a lineup that posted 115.7 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right. Let's maintain this momentum as we roll into our next challenge in Week 14.
Out for Blood
Take my word for it, Out for Blood... Coming from a coach who's constantly on the hot seat: if this whole "fantasy football GM" thing doesn't work out, you can take comfort in the fact that there's always that scrappy Assistant Coaching gig available at the local Pop Warner team down the street!
