Coach Talk

LongShotzz
You know what, LongShotzz, we do certainly respect the confidence. Starting not one, not two, but FIVE players with zero points while still earning the win... that's playing with fire. We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
'T-N-T' Treat'§
Fortunately, 'T-N-T' Treat'§, this week's problem isn't exactly advanced calculus. Going with several zero-point players in a fantasy matchup where your opposition tallied almost 19 points... let's use this as an opportunity to get better and all agree that it's not going to happen again.
