{{Quotation|'''Brick''' [https://tf2classic.com/fight_or_flight/supplycrate promotional blurb]|When guns and swords were out of reach, throwing heavy objects was part and parcel for history's little guys. A brick lying in the debris of a broken store window is a noble stand against faceless corporate evil. Carry the Brick with pride, Scout, because even though you're a hired thug fighting on the side of faceless corporate evil, you're still just a little guy.}} | {{Quotation|'''Brick''' [https://tf2classic.com/fight_or_flight/supplycrate promotional blurb]|When guns and swords were out of reach, throwing heavy objects was part and parcel for history's little guys.
