Coach Talk

Warm Bodies
Mission accomplished, Warm Bodies. Nice job deploying a team that recorded more than 144 points this past week. We should tip our cap to the GM of Redlegs, take this win in stride, and continue pushing forward to the OklahomIraqis League AFC title.
Redlegs
Ugh, talk about under-utilized: As a group, the starting RBs for Redlegs collectively recorded three receptions on only four measly targets this past week. Tell those offensive coordinators to draw up a couple of screen plays in Week 3!
