Coach Talk

KEEP IT MOVIN'
Well done, KEEP IT MOVIN'. Fielding a lineup that won by a whopping 40.5 points this past matchup. We should tip our cap to the GM of Pac Men, take this win in stride, and continue our march towards the Yahoo Public 1216 league championship.
Pac Men
The problem in Week 14 isn't exactly rocket science, Pac Men. Choosing to start Foster Moreau in a fantasy matchup where your opponent tallied more than 144 points... we'll all put this in the rear-view mirror and assume something like this won't be happening again.
