Coach Talk

Disnerds
Assembling a lineup that won by 11.7 points this past week... we took care of business and did what we had to do.
Evil Clowns
Do your best take solace in the fact that your generosity didn't go unnoticed, Evil Clowns. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like Disnerds succeed this week. Who knows, maybe you'll see them again after they've clinched a playoff spot, and they forget to update their lineup that week to return the favor!
