Coach Talk

Ivermectin Cure
Spotting mismatches is a huge key to success in football. We really took that to heart this week by utterly dominating Goodell's Gonads at the wide receiver position (58.9 points to 9.3).
Goodell's Gonads
Try to take solace in the fact that your generosity did not go unnoticed. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like Ivermectin Cure succeed this week... and when the time comes, maybe they'll return the favor by taking a couple of kickers early in next year's draft (something like that). Keep your head up, Goodell's Gonads!
