Coach Talk

Brown eye pleaser
Nice job overcoming that two-game losing streak, Brown eye pleaser! Every fantasy GM will surely be hit with adversity somewhere along the way... keep on truckin' and remember the 2021 season is far from over.
The Ghetto Blasters
Don't beat yourself up too badly, The Ghetto Blasters! Listen, we've been in this industry long enough to realize that every once in a while, free points just seem to randomly appear out of thin air. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, okay... it really would have required some serious wizardry to find an additional 15 points for you in this matchup.
