Coach Talk

Team Stinky Pinky
Way to shrug off that two-game losing skid, Team Stinky Pinky! Every fantasy GM is sure to be faced with adversity at some point or another... keep on truckin' and good things will continue to happen.
CeeDeez Nutz
Don't get too down on yourself, CeeDeez Nutz! Trust me here (this is coming from a coach who's frequently lived life on the hot seat)... You can always fall back on that volunteer Graduate Assistant job available at the community college down the road!
