Coach Talk

Polish-Hammer
Sure, we ultimately got the win, but there's not really any other way to put it, Polish-Hammer; our running backs were clearly outclassed by the opposition. Our backfield produced just 11.4 points in Week 15, and the starting backfield for Viera doubled us up with a score of 27.2.
Viera
Happy holidays, Viera! We hope the GM of Polish-Hammer will send a thank-you card for the generous gift you let them have this past week.
