Coach Talk

terry's Trained assassins
Hey, football is all about spotting the mismatches. Not only did we double up Fungible Tokens at WR (28.7 points to 14.2), we also doubled them at QB (36.16 points to 15.76).
Fungible Tokens
Keep your chin up, Fungible Tokens! Trust us, we've been in this business for quite a long time now. Adversity happens, losses pile up, the fans get whiny, and your local beat writers get a little testy with distasteful columns. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that when it comes to fantasy football, winning is the easiest way to silence all the critics out there.
