"Mr. (Randy) Hundley's fantasy-camp remembrances really lightened the somberness. 'He used to aggravate the living daylights out of me,' Mr. Hundley recalled. 'He'd make the rules for the camp, and then he'd cheat. I finally had to take him out of managing a team. He was so competitive, he'd always have to win.'" - Marc Nesseler on Quad-Cities Online (A fitting farewell for Q-C’s Major Leaguer, 03/07/2007)
