Coach Talk

The Legion of Zoom
You know what, The Legion of Zoom, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. It's a bold move to play a starter with zero points (Jerry Jeudy), while still earning the W. We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
Pottsville Maroons 4
Trust us, we've been in this industry for quite a long time now. Adversity happens, losses pile up, the fans get whiny, and your local beat writers get a little nit-picky with distasteful columns. All part of living that coach life. Just remember that when it comes to fantasy football, winning is the easiest way to silence any critics out there! Keep your head up, Pottsville Maroons 4!
