- Satchel Paige said James Cool Papa Bell was so fast that he could turn off the light and be under the covers before the room got dark. This is true; at one hotel they stayed in there was a delay between flipping the light switch off and the lights actually going off due to faulty wiring. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/cool_papa_bell 34 comments baseball
