Coach Talk

The Chupacabras
Yo, The Chupacabras, you put the rest of the league on notice with this dominant effort. Not only did you win by 41.62 points, you also jumped up a ridiculous three spots in the league standings... squarely into the thick of the playoff hunt
All Barkley No Bite
Chin up, All Barkley No Bite! Listen, I've been in this business long enough to know that occasionally free points can just miraculously appear out of the blue. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, okay... hoping for an extra 42 points may be a bit on the excessive side.
