Coach Talk

Teallen's Tip-Top Team
You know what, Teallen's Tip-Top Team, we do certainly appreciate the confidence. Playing a starter with zero points (Darnell Mooney), while still getting the W... talk about arrogant. We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
HomeWood Styles
Don't get too discouraged, HomeWood Styles! Trust me here (this is coming from a coach who's frequently lived life on the hot seat)... You can take comfort knowing that there's always that pro-bono Assistant Coaching gig available at the local high school down the road!
