Coach Talk

MrAwesome'sMoMo's
Good work assembling a lineup that accounted for 152.65 points this past week. We did what we needed to do and took care of business. We should take this W in stride, tip our hat to the GM of Sidney Dak Prescott, and continue our march towards a fantasy championship.
Sidney Dak Prescott
