guy if the other team had someone down near that team's offensive basket. Didn't matter which Van Arsdale. They'd elbow the poor offensive guy to death because all the refs were at the other end of the court where the action was. Nobody dared take them on because they had muscles like Mr. America and used their elbows as knives.
