Coach Talk

MILLER'S KILLERS
Deploying a starting crew that netted more than 157 points this past week... we deem that to be a job done right. We should tip our cap to the GM of Neopol jets, take this W in stride, and continue marching forward to the CZNFL D League 21 title.
Neopol jets
Don't get too distraught, Neopol jets! Look, I've been at it long enough to know that sometimes free points can just magically appear out of the blue. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, okay... hoping for an additional 17 points might be a little excessive.
