"In tennis, you pretty much show up with your foursome, you play and you leave. And pickleball, especially my experience, is you can show up by yourself, you play with a dozen new buddies, get a handful of phone numbers, and it's just super social, uh, on and off the court." - Scott Fliegelman
"I tend to be the more verbal player. Uh, I, I like to, I like to talk, I like to, to call the ball. Um, I love complimenting, uh, my partner. That's like my exclamation when my partner does something well." - Scott Fliegelman
"I love the chance to, to work with this team." - Scott Fliegelman, on being the Denver Iconics team captain in the National Pickleball League
