Coach Talk

Far From Ma”Home”s
Well, we do admire the confidence this past week, Far From Ma”Home”s. It takes a special sort of moxie to deploy a player with zero points (Tyler Bass), while still getting a win. All we ask is to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we're done.
GI Joe & Kyle
As we say goodbye to 2022, our coaching staff can look back on the fantasy season and appreciate all of the ups and the downs that came with it. Okay, well really just seven ups and nine downs, but still... Our coaching staff thanks you for spending a great year with us, and here's to 2023!
