Coach Talk

Snod Rats
Bravo on deploying a starting crew that won by a whopping 30.71 points this past week. We did what was needed and took care of business. Let's tip our cap to the GM of Chicken nuggets, take this W in stride, and continue on our way towards the YRFFL league championship.
Chicken nuggets
With four receptions on just five targets this past week, the starting running backs for Chicken nuggets obviously need to look into why their quarterbacks are giving them the silent treatment.
