Coach Talk

🖕🏼
Mission accomplished, 🖕🏼. Deploying a team that registered more than 115 points this past week. We should tip our cap to the GM of HandslikeWayneMello, take this win in stride, and continue on our way towards a fantasy championship.
HandslikeWayneMello
Take my word for it, HandslikeWayneMello... Coming from a coach who's constantly on the hot seat: if this whole "fantasy football GM" thing doesn't work out, you can take comfort knowing that there's always that gritty Assistant Coaching gig available at the local high school down the road!
