Coach Talk

Spider Pig
Listen, Spider Pig, we do respect the confidence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Eric Ebron), while still earning the win... that's playing with fire.
GOJIRA
Happy holidays, GOJIRA! We hope the GM of Spider Pig will send a thank-you card for the generous 103.12-point gift this past week.
