Coach Talk

The Fishguts
You know what, The Fishguts, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. Starting a player with zero points (Deon Jackson), while still earning the W... that's playing with fire! We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it in the postseason and we'll be toast.
TonyM's Terrific Team
Take my word for it (as a coach who's frequently lived life on the hot seat)... You can always fall back on that scrappy Assistant Coaching job open at the local Pop Warner team down the road! Keep pushing forward, TonyM's Terrific Team!
