Coach Talk

The Blusters
This sport is all about creating mismatches. Our squad took that to heart this past week and utterly dominated The Weasels at the quarterback position (43.86 points to 17.32).
The Weasels
Tis the season, The Weasels! We hope the GM of The Blusters will write a thank-you card for the generous gift you let them have this past week.
