Coach Talk

CMC and Destroy
Nice job, CMC and Destroy. Deploying a lineup that earned 195.66 points this past week. We should tip our cap to the GM of Canes, take this W in stride, and continue our march towards a fantasy title.
Canes
Keep your head held high, Canes! Listen, we've been in this industry long enough to realize that every once in a while, free points just seem to miraculously appear out of nowhere. And then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Hmmm, alright; hoping for an additional 11 points may be a bit excessive.
