Coach Talk

Cool Brees
Wow, talk about righting the ship... The GM of Cool Brees shrugged off their two-game losing streak by putting up a whopping 132.14 points this past week!
Casey Cranford
Coming from someone who's lived life on the hot seat, let me assure you... if this whole "fantasy football coach" thing doesn't work out, you can take comfort knowing that there's always that gritty Assistant Coaching job available at the local Pop Warner team down the street!
