Coach Talk

WATSONs SPA
Nice job deploying a lineup that won by 12.5 points this past week. We deem that to be a job well done.
El Capitán
Hey now, talk about old-school ground n' pound: The starting backfield for El Capitán collectively registered one catch on only two measly targets this past week.
