Coach Talk

Homebrew Homies
Nice job, Homebrew Homies. Fielding a team that registered more than 214 points this past matchup. We should tip our cap to the GM of Laphroaig loosers, take this victory in stride, and continue on our way towards the A Drinking Dynasty League championship.
Laphroaig loosers
It's entirely possible that Laphroaig loosers might be a better talent scout in the NFL than in fantasy football. Seeing only eight total targets in Week 3, their five starting pass-catchers (four WR, one TE) apparently did a superb job blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
