Coach Talk

Men of Steel
Putting together a starting crew that got to triple digits this past week... we consider that to be a job well done. We should maintain this momentum as we step into a tricky challenge in Week 14.
The Dirk Digglers
Don't beat yourself up too badly, The Dirk Digglers! There are plenty of lessons we can glean from this season and apply to next year... it's never too early to begin doing your homework and thinking about how to improve!
