Coach Talk

Tonia's Tip-Top Team
Listen, Tonia's Tip-Top Team, we applaud you on the confidence. Starting a starter with negative points (plus a zero-point player) while still getting a W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists. All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Try it in the postseason and we're toast.
Marty's Super Team
Ugh, talk about old-school ground n' pound: The starting RBs for Marty's Super Team collectively recorded only four targets this past week.
