Coach Talk

Big Balls
Hey, it's good to be confident, Big Balls. Deploying a player with zero points (Foster Moreau), while still getting a win... that's borderline cocky! We just ask you to please limit that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be toast.
Pitty City Slickers
Look, I've been in this business long enough to realize that sometimes free points just seem to magically appear out of thin air. And then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Hmmm, alright; maybe asking for an additional 38 points is a bit overzealous. Keep your head up, Pitty City Slickers!
