Every day Bill had proverb

 It's started to suck a lot of our profits right out of the business. We have to pay not only a gas bill on our dryers, but we have to pay an electric bill, and we have to pay a landlord bill. This company right here is just about sucking it all out on us. We don't have anything.

 I'm not in the Hall of Fame, and I'm not going to be in the Hall of Fame, ... The word from the NBA is that I'm too controversial.
