Coach Talk

Austin's Dazzling Team
You know what, Austin's Dazzling Team, we do appreciate the confidence. Starting not one, not two, but FOUR players with zero points while still earning the W... talk about arrogant. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Magic SKOL Bus and we'll be toast!
Iron Eagle
Fortunately, Week 3's problem was pretty easy to diagnose, Iron Eagle. Going with Justin Watson in a tough fantasy matchup... we'll all just move on from this and assume something like this won't be happening again.
