Coach Talk

Bell Cows
Whoa, Bell Cows, you put the rest of the league on notice with this performance. Not only did you win by 33+ points, you also climbed from eighth place to sixth in the league standings. Nice work!
IT Ballers
Listen, IT Ballers, we've been in this industry long enough to realize that sometimes points can just miraculously appear out of the blue. Then sometimes (like this week) they don't! You know, now that I think about it... hoping for an additional 34 points might be a bit overzealous.
