Coach Talk

Cohen2MitchMackYou
Deploying a lineup that earned almost 227 points this past week... we did what was needed and took care of business. We should take this victory in stride, tip our hat to the GM of jesse's Team, and continue our march towards the May Family and Friends league championship.
jesse's Team
Look, jesse's Team, we've been in this industry long enough to realize that sometimes 10 extra points will just randomly come out of nowhere... and then sometimes, like in your matchup this week, they won't! The coaching staff here is proud of you, the most important thing here is that you tried.
