Coach Talk

Covid Bombers
You know what, Covid Bombers, we do appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to play, not one, but TWO starters with zero points (DeVante Parker and Christian McCaffrey), while still earning the W.
Erskine's Dawgs
Tis the season, Erskine's Dawgs! We hope the GM of Covid Bombers will write a thank-you card for the generous 204.9-point gift this past week.
