Coach Talk

Dez Nuts
Whoa, Dez Nuts, you put the rest of the league on notice with this shellacking. Along with a 30.1-point victory, you also climbed two spots in the league standings... directly into the thick of playoff contention
1JackOff50
Just like the league's new tackling rules, remember to keep your head up, 1JackOff50! Listen, I've been at it long enough to realize that occasionally free points just seem to randomly appear out of thin air. And then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Well, hmmm, okay... perhaps asking for an additional 31 points is a bit excessive.
