Coach Talk

bmwats's Dazzling Team
Nice job deploying a starting crew that won by a whopping 38 points this past week. We consider that to be a job done right. We should take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of LarryDavidShrimp, and continue the march towards the SHMENGES ##################### league championship.
LarryDavidShrimp
A lot of cake, no icing: The five starting offensive skill players on LarryDavidShrimp (two WRs, two RBs, one TE) collectively gained a whopping 309 yards from scrimmage. None of those starters could find his way to the end zone in Week 2.
