Coach Talk

Mountain Climbing Jellyfish
Assembling a lineup that produced 120.78 points this past week... we consider that to be a job done right. We should keep this momentum going as we move on to a tricky matchup in Week 11.
Just Joshin'
You can rest easy knowing that your generosity this week did not go unnoticed. It takes a real kindred spirit to help someone like Mountain Climbing Jellyfish succeed... and when the time comes, maybe they'll return the favor by selecting a couple of defenses early in next year's draft (something along those lines). Keep your chin up, Just Joshin'!
