Coach Talk

Team 77
Way to shrug off that two-match winless skid, Team 77! Every fantasy GM will surely be met with adversity somewhere along the way... keep showing resilience like this and good things will continue to happen.
Whitby Phantoms
The problem this week isn't exactly rocket science, Whitby Phantoms. Choosing to start and Noah Fant in a fantasy matchup where your opposition put up 76 points... let's consider this to be a learning experience and all agree that it won't happen again.
