Coach Talk

Oblong balls
Nice job deploying a lineup that won by more than 52 points this past week. We took care of business and did what we needed to do. We should tip our cap to the GM of Elephants Can’t Swim, take this victory in stride, and continue the march towards the 16 Team Dynasty league championship.
