Coach Talk

Michael Scott
Listen Michael Scott, I'm a glass-half-full kind of coach. While others may harp on the fact that our scoring output has slipped lately, I'll choose to take the optimistic route. Averaging 178.6 points through Week 13, our crew has certainly proven that it's even stronger than the 157.32 we needed for this past week's win!
Ultimate Badasses
With one reception on just two measly targets this past week, the starting running backs for Ultimate Badasses should work to smooth things over with their quarterbacks... and remind them to check down more frequently.
