Coach Talk

Closet of Hope-fuls
Kudos to you, Closet of Hope-fuls. Deploying a team that tallied 109.66 points in Week 4. Let's take this win in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Patrick Mahomeless, and continue on our way towards the Hiawatha League of Champions title.
Patrick Mahomeless
Well, we certainly can't whine about a lack of opportunities this time, can we? Our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a healthy 40 times in Week 4. Those players might need to spend more time with the JUGS machine, considering they hauled in only 23 balls.
