Coach Talk

Foosball’s The Devil
Assembling a starting crew that posted 125.68 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right.
Omelette du Fromage
There's a real chance that Omelette du Fromage would be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating only eight total targets in Week 14, their two wide receivers apparently did a superb job running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
