Coach Talk

SAWTOOTHS
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but we can't deny it, SAWTOOTHS: our quarterback was clearly outclassed this past week. Our one signal-callers combined for only 14.25 points in Week 15, while the QBs for WarEagle doubled us up with a score of 31.15.
WarEagle
Tis the season, WarEagle! We hope the GM of SAWTOOTHS will write a thank-you card for the generous 140.15-point gift this past week.
