Coach Talk

Ivan the Destroyer
Whoa, Ivan the Destroyer, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this blowout. Not only did you win by more than 33 points, you also jumped up from 11th place to eighth in the league standings. Nice job!
Steidle66
Trust me on this one (since I'm a coach who's lived life on the hot seat)... If this "fantasy GM" thing doesn't work out, you can always fall back on that gritty Graduate Assistant job available at the community college down the road!
