Coach Talk

LarryDavidShrimp
Way to shrug off that two-game losing streak, LarryDavidShrimp! Every fantasy GM is hit with adversity somewhere along the way... keep chipping away and remember that this season is far from over.
Carl's Team
With only a pair of receptions this past week, the starting RBs for Carl's Team should investigate why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
