Coach Talk

Breeced Lightning
Wow, Breeced Lightning, you really made a statement to the rest of the league with this shellacking. In addition to a 20.58-point victory, you also jumped up two places in the league standings. Nice work!
Grounds Game Keeper
There's still a ton of football left to be played, Grounds Game Keeper! The next few opponents may look at your win-loss record and foolishly believe they have a cakewalk. Do what Deon Jackson and Mike Boone would in this scenario and continue pounding away... catch these complacent managers off-guard!
