Coach Talk

Dirty Dogs
Putting together a lineup that won by more than 21 points this past week... we consider that to be a job well done. We should keep this momentum going as we step into our next matchup in Week 3.
ExigentCircumstances
Keep your head up, ExigentCircumstances! Trust us on this one, we've been in this industry for quite a long time now. Adversity happens, losses pile up, your fans get whiny, and the local beat writers get a little nit-picky with all of their questions. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that in the world of fantasy football, winning is the easiest way to silence all the critics out there.
