Coach Talk

Cedric's TPSer's
Bravo, Cedric's TPSer's. Good job fielding a lineup that netted 154 points this past matchup. Let's tip our cap to the GM of prespLAy, take this win in stride, and continue marching forward to the Super Stars league championship.
prespLAy
Only one field goal on three attempts? Seems like Zane Gonzalez might be kicking himself back into the free agent pool after this performance.
