Coach Talk
TxTigers
Hey, it's good to be confident, TxTigers. It takes gumption to deploy a player with zero points (Antonio Gibson), while still earning the W. We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the playoffs roll around, and we'll be toast.
Inner City Limits
Fortunately, Inner City Limits, this week's problem was pretty easy to diagnose. Going with James Robinson and James Conner in a tough fantasy matchup... let's use this as an opportunity to get better and agree that it's not going to happen again.
