Coach Talk

Kentuckyman49
Listen, Kentuckyman49, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. Deploying a starter with zero points (Michael Thomas), while still getting the W... talk about arrogant. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the early regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we're toast.
Zekeler
Trust us on this one, Zekeler... We've been in this industry for a long time now. Obstacles pop up, you suffer some defeats, your fans get whiny, and the local beat writers get a little nit-picky with all of their questions. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that in the world of fantasy football, winning is the easiest way to silence all the critics out there!
