“They’d have Saturday night games, pickup games, and I was the stats man. Half the time, I was the guy responsible for leaving the door and the window in the locker room ajar so they could come in Saturday night at midnight.

They’d play from midnight to who knows? I came when it started, and I never saw it end.” —Bill Brill, who passed away yesterday.
