Coach Talk

MangoKid
Props on deploying a lineup that tallied over 246 points this past week. We consider that to be a job well done. Let's tip our cap to the GM of BALLSWIN, take this victory in stride, and continue our march towards the Fantasy Dynasty League - S10 championship.
BALLSWIN
There's still a ton of time left to turn this season around, BALLSWIN! Your next few opponents may glance at your record and foolishly think they have a cakewalk. Use it to your advantage and deploy your best possible starting lineups... catch those complacent managers snoozing!
