Coach Talk

F8-Quit
Bravo, F8-Quit. Putting together a lineup that netted 206 points this past matchup. We should take this win in stride, tip our cap to the GM of Cervone Rage, and continue on our way towards a fantasy title.
Cervone Rage
With only three catches this past week, the starting running backs for Cervone Rage should look into why their QBs are giving them the cold shoulder.
