Coach Talk

Michael Phelps's Primo Team
Well, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Michael Phelps's Primo Team. It takes a special kind of gumption to deploy a starter with negative points (plus two zero-point players) while still getting a win. All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
Don Vang's Fine Team
