Chillin with Mahomies
You can take our word for it, Chillin with Mahomies... We've been in this industry for a long time now. Obstacles pop up, you suffer some defeats, your fans get a little whiny, and the local beat writers turn nit-picky with distasteful columns in the paper. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that when it comes to fantasy football, winning is the easiest way to silence all the critics out there!
