Coach Talk

Durk Sascrotch
Here's a list of sports scenarios where it's somewhat acceptable to go 0-for-2: A hitter's line in baseball, the Jazz facing MJ's Bulls in the NBA Finals, and a double-fault in tennis. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Sounds like Wil Lutz might have just toe-bashed himself to the waiver wire after that sort of performance.
Ballsagna
You can feel good knowing that your generosity this week didn't go unnoticed, Ballsagna. It takes a true winner to help someone like Durk Sascrotch succeed. 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!
