editAnyone able to post a sound clip of Raftery saying one of his famous quotes? This entry really won't be complete without an audio clip of Bill. --Areback 23:51, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

"In 1989, he was named Coach of the Year by the New Jersey Writers Association"
He was Coach of the Year in 1989? Where was he coaching? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.10.105.34 (talk) 19:23, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
quotes
editI think we need to separate it into two sections. "Memorable quotes" which he would only say at a single occassion. And then "expressions" which he says pretty much every game. --Levineps (talk) 20:05, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
- I think there also needs to be some editing down of this. Many of the expressions are very similar to each other, for example all the "Send it in" and "Onions" references. We really don't need them all. I'll try again to pare this down, but I am seemingly being overruled. Asc85 (talk) 18:36, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
Someone deleted all the quotes + no mention of why. Putting them back in. If you want to delete, create the appropriate wikiquote entry. Else content deletion without replacement = not good.Areback (talk) 23:56, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
