Coach Talk

Shake n' Bake
Nice job, Shake n' Bake. Fielding a lineup that won by over 22 points this past matchup. We should take this victory in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Sansa Stark, and continue on our way towards the Conmemorativo league title.
Sansa Stark
"Not getting enough opportunities" isn't a valid excuse this week for Sansa Stark. As a group, our four pass-catchers (three WR and one TE) were targeted a grand total of 28 times in Week 3. Chemistry appears to be an issue, as that group notched only 11 catches.
