    I've always thought of it in the basketball context: brick = missed shot where you've now hit the adjacent post or stand-up target of death, and the ball "bricks" off the post/target just like the basketball "bricks" off the rim, bouncing out of control.

    A good shot that gets rejected, in my pinball parlance, is simply a "reject."
