CGL18 Awards
Player Most Valuable Player- "You can't really compare being CGL MVP to anything else. I mean where else can you get such a prestigious award in front of no press, no fans, and barely any teammates? Isn't it great?"
Z GM of the Year- "You see, what you have to do when drafting a team is to put all instinct aside. The minute you think you know who you want, completely ignore that impulse and take the next guy. If you buy that I got some ocean front property in North Dakota you may be interested in as well."
Bill Walton's Words of Wisdom
"The only way Danny Schayes is getting into the Hall of Fame is if he pays the $5.99 admission fee."

Dan Wargolet -3/20 FG; "Do you really have to interview me after such a performance? It's like Hannah Storm asking Lebron how he feels after missing the game-winning shot. How do you think I feel, jackass?"

The Legend of the Closed Gym
It's been said that back in the late 80's-early 90's, a group of 10 or more men would gather together in the name of basketball. These men were asked to come to these so-called Open Gyms because they 1) were reliable, 2) were competitive, 3) would cause no arguments, and 4) loved to play. Because phone calls were placed to specific individuals on an invitation only basis, a significant fact was brought to the operator's attention: "Hey, these aren't Open Gyms." And thus the Closed Gyms were born.
