Brian's sickness:

In high school, I was violently ill and throwing up before a basketball game against our biggest rival. I went out in the first half and put up 18 points; I had to come out of the game twice to go vomit. We ended up winning by 15 points and I was able to sit out most of the second half. It was Jordan vs. the Jazz-esque before the Jordan vs. the Jazz game ever happened.
