Coach Talk

MikeGaloMex
Nice job, MikeGaloMex. Kudos on assembling a lineup that netted 100.48 points this past week. We should take this victory in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Kermit's Outstanding Team, and continue on our way towards the Yahoo Public 1282334 league championship.
Kermit's Outstanding Team
Luckily, Week 3's problem isn't exactly rocket science, Kermit's Outstanding Team. Choosing to start the Washington Football Team defense in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll all just put this in the rear-view mirror and assume that something like this won't happen again.
