"It's me, Matt, your son." "That is not my quarterback, you're my quarterback." "You understand that?" "We had a meeting, the funds are frozen." "Who had a meeting?" "All the people that I've been out trying to get money from for the JumboTron." "BUDDY:" "I'm sorry it happened this way, Tami." "Mmm-hmm." "People have warned me about getting into this with you." "I tell them that you're a good guy." "You are, right?" "Yeah." "What's up, Coach?" "Two weeks' time." "You got a walk-on at Texas AM." "I'll make you proud." "(CROWD CHEERING)" "ANNOUNCER:" "At this time we ask that you stand and remove cover for our national anthem." "Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come for the Clark County..." "But before we get started, before we introduce our young kids to the arena..." "(BELL RINGING)" "That's an angry horse, right there." "Who wanted the cotton candy?" "(LAUGHING) I'll have some." "I'll have some." "You want it?" "Aren't you gonna have any?" "No, I'm not having any." "Why?" "I was going to get y'all some." "I'm having my wisdom teeth taken out tomorrow." "I'm not trying to gum up..." "Something funny?" "No." "I'm having a major surgery and you're laughing." "You're just gonna laugh in my face." "They give you laughing gas." "I don't think laughing gas is a laughing matter." "I'm sorry." "It's..." "How about I come over afterwards and nurse you back to health?" "We'll watch a movie or something." "Can you guys focus for two seconds?" "Cash is up next." "All he needs is an 80 to win." "Come on, Cash!" "Let's go, man!" "(BELL RINGING)" "ANNOUNCER:" "A score over 80 will be first place for Dillon, Texas, man." "Holding on for a full eight seconds." "He's there!" "Ooh!" "That is one fine-ass cowboy." "Really?" "I hadn't noticed." "ANNOUNCER: 82.82 for Cash Waller." "(ALL CHEERING)" "ANNOUNCER:" "The winner of our rodeo, your hometown cowboy from Dillon, Texas." "Cash Waller!" "Come on." "Drive the feet." "Drive the feet." "Damn it, drive your legs!" "I'm driving them." "No, you're not driving your legs!" "Hut!" "Go!" "Drive!" "Drive!" "There you go." "Get something to drink." "They change the walk-on date?" "That's right." "You got an extra 24 hours." "Why'd they change it?" "I guess they're busy." "Mitch thinks you got a better chance with Helling on Sunday, anyway." "Whoa, whoa." "Who's Mitch?" "What's that?" "Who's Mitch, anyway?" "Mitch Stallman." "He's the one who set everything up." "Is he pretty tight with Coach Helling?" "Yeah, he is." "So, who's he?" "Offensive coordinator?" "Running back coach?" "I tell you what." "Why don't you worry a little bit less about who Mitch Stallman is, and a little bit more about yourself on Sunday." "How's that?" "Yes, sir." "Thank you." "TAYLOR:" "Hut!" "Drive, damn it." "Come on!" "(COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING)" "So $10,000 for riding a horse, huh?" "Yeah, well, he wasn't that into it, but my landlord's gonna be happy." "(LAUGHS)" "Tyra Collette, man." "Billy never mentioned that Mindy's little sister turned into a goddess." "(LAUGHS)" "That's, um..." "So you gonna be in town for a while or you just stopping by?" "Yeah, actually, I am." "So what happened with that guy who was with y'all?" "Landry?" "Oh, he's all nervous." "He's getting his wisdom teeth pulled tomorrow." "Oh, I hate that." "Yeah." "So is he your boyfriend?" "'Cause, you know, I respect that if he is." "No, no." "God, no." "We're just friends." "Oh, just friends, huh?" "Yeah." "That's all." "You wanna dance?" "You wanna dance?" "Okay." "(MAN CHATTERING ON TV)" "Hey, honey." "I'm sure getting hungry." "Sorry, Grandma." "Your oatmeal is almost ready." "Ooh, it's Tuesday." "I want that milk toast on Tuesday." "No, it's Thursday, and you get the oatmeal." "Well, I just don't want oatmeal today." "Please, look, it's cinnamon and apple." "You like it." "Come on." "Landry can't give me a ride, so I gotta catch the bus." "Who is that J.D. McCoy they're showing on the TV?" "MAN ON TV:" "J.D. McCoy, waiting in the wings." "He's nobody." "It's a bye week, so they're just trying to find something to talk about." "Yeah, they don't do that on you." "Be good." "I'm not gonna eat that." "BUDDY:" "So you got it, Bill?" "Looking good, right here." "That'll be good." "Hey, y'all." "Ah, this is the principal." "TAMI:" "Hey, Buddy." "Hey." "You mind me asking what y'all are doing?" "Nothing." "Well, just a little preliminary survey for the new scoreboard." "On whose authority?" "Uh..." "Well, mine, I guess." "(BOTH LAUGH)" "That's funny." "You know you don't have that kind of authority, Buddy." "I don't?" "No." "You sure don't." "We have a meeting this week with the board to discuss this JumboTron." "Tami, I know we have a board meeting, but I have an obligation to the boosters to be ready just in case our side wins." "No, no, no, no." "No, no, I know what you are trying to do." "You are trying to bully this thing through." "And it's not gonna happen." "You know what?" "I'm gonna go in front of that board and I'm gonna make sure Superintendent Dunley hears what I'm saying." "Well, Paul wants to hear what you have to say." "He's very interested." "He told me that this weekend at the country club." "You played golf with Paul Dunley this weekend?" "I play with him all the time." "I've known him forever." "He buys all his cars from me." "Put it on your cheek." "(SLURRING) Why is it so bright?" "It's outside." "It's daytime." "Let me know if you feel like you're gonna fall." "(GROANS) Step!" "You okay?" "You just saved my life." "I'm so glad you came to pick me up in the minivan, because I love this minivan." "Yeah." "It's a sign of comfort for me." "I'm so glad." "(CELL PHONE RINGING)" "Hello?" "LANDRY:" "Hello." "Are you done?" "How did it go?" "Oh, it went great." "They were playing Lionel Ritchie's Lady." "And I love that song." "And listen." "You listening?" "Mmm-hmm." "I think me, you and Repo Man and a bunch of Cherry Garcia, at my house..." "I think that sounds like a fantastic idea." "That's what that sounds like." "I just wanted to say that you're the best girlfriend that a guy could want." "Landry?" "I know that you're not my girlfriend per se, but I love you anyway." "And my mom is taking my phone away." "Hey, Tyra." "Landry's gotta go." "We'll see you this evening, okay?" "Bye-bye." "What?" "Why would you do that?" "You will thank me later." "TAYLOR:" "We got a bye week." "We're gonna start working on spread offense." "McNulty's got a hell of a defense this year." "They're gonna be sitting on the I and they're gonna be pounding Saracen all night long." "I can guaran-damn-tee you, gentlemen." "We are not gonna repeat the loss we had last week." "You wanna build it around McCoy." "Didn't say that." "Hey, Crowley, how about Coach asked us to work on a spread offense, we work on a spread offense and we don't ask any questions?" "McGILL:" "We done here, Coach?" "Yeah, Mac." "We're done." "Meet between 2:00 and 3:00 in the bullpen, start hammering out the details." "All right, y'all heard the man." "Y'all get back to work." "You need something?" "So we going with McCoy, here, Eric?" "Is that what we're doing?" "I don't know, Mac." "All right." "I'll talk to you later." "(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)" "He just disappeared out of the middle of nowhere, man." "Is she waving at me?" "No, she's waving at me." "Shut up." "Who is that, man?" "Hey." "Hey, I was hoping that was you." "What are you doing?" "Oh, nothing." "I was driving back from San Antonio on a work thing." "Is it all right if I stop here?" "I don't wanna block anybody." "You're actually not supposed to." "Okay, well..." "Hey, where are you going?" "Can I give you a ride home or something?" "All right." "Yeah, fine." "I'm gonna get a ride." "JAMARCUS:" "You sure, man?" "All right." "All right." "It's just over there." "Yeah, I remember." "SHELBY:" "Wow, you got your own sign." "That's kind of cool." "Everybody gets one, so it's not really a big deal." "Thanks for the ride." "You're welcome." "So I guess I'll see you." "Yeah, okay." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "Hey, Matt!" "Wait a second." "You know, it seems like you got a lot on your plate, and..." "I guess I was just wondering if..." "I don't know, if there's anything I could do to help out or..." "No." "We're good." "Okay." "Good, good." "'Cause I was just thinking that while I'm in town..." "How long are you in town for?" "Not long-term or anything." "I just..." "I just would really love to help out, that's all." "Okay, look, um..." "I'm supposed to take Grandma to an orthopedist appointment tomorrow afternoon, but..." "Oh." "I mean, I got this really big test the next day." "Yeah." "That'd be perfect." "Yeah, I'll take her to the doctor tomorrow." "At 4:00?" "4:00." "See you then." "Hey, how's it going?" "MATT:" "Let's go." "Let's go have your snack." "Grandma." "Come on." "Just... (ALL CHATTERING)" "TYRA:" "Here we go." "(HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING)" "That's disgusting." "I don't know." "Here's what you do." "You break it at the joint, you slide your thumb under it, and then you just... (CHUCKLES) Oh, God." "All right." "That's how you do it." "And if you're really cool, here's what you do with the head." "MINDY:" "Yeah, do it, do it." "See, that's just wrong." "Yeah, it's not that good." "(ALL LAUGHING)" "BILLY:" "See, he's got a lot of useless skills like that." "You know he speaks French?" "I mean, I'm telling you, there's nothing weirder than seeing some drunk-ass cowboy speaking French." "Drunk-ass?" "Come on." "Where did you learn how to speak French?" "Picked it up in Louisiana." "When did you live in Louisiana?" "Grew up there and then my family moved to Dillon when I was in high school, where I met this fine, upstanding citizen." "(CHUCKLES) Oh, yeah." "The rest is history." "Seriously, you should've seen this kid pitch in high school, though." "It was ridiculous." "He had a canon for an arm." "Could have gotten a scholarship to any school you wanted to go to." "Baseball is too slow and boring." "Right now, I like to ride broncs in the rodeo." "Yee-haw." "MATT:" "Yeah, there he is, Mitch Stallman." "He's in charge of group sales." "(SCOFFS)" "I'm gonna work at Alamo Freeze till I die." "You just gotta trust Coach, Smash." "I mean, he knows what he's doing, so..." "LANDRY:" "Hey, Smash?" "Matt?" "I'm really glad I could provide you with beverages and Wi-Fi and all that you can possibly want, but Tyra's gonna be over here pretty soon." "I thought she broke up with you a long time ago." "Yeah, she did." "Your facts aren't quite correct, Smash." "Is that right?" "See, Tyra is a complicated woman and it's a very complicated situation." "Let's get out of here, man." "I'd be worried if she wasn't doing this." "It's getting sad and weird in here, and I need to keep my mood up." "LANDRY:" "I heard every bit of what you just said, man." "Later, Lando." "Hey, if she doesn't show, you give me a call, okay?" "She'll show up, Matt." "MINDY:" "We are not going to San Antonio on our honeymoon." "BILLY:" "Why not?" "Because you're taking me to Hawaii." "How the hell am I gonna afford Hawaii?" "MINDY:" "I don't know." "BILLY:" "I mean, we have to win the lottery." "TYRA:" "What's that?" "Uh, it's just a little bit of cowboy candy." "I busted my shoulder in Mineola last week." "Oh, my God, that's so weird." "Do you remember when I busted my shoulder last week in Mineola?" "No." "Nice try, though." "Hey, you wanna get out of here, leave these guys alone?" "Sure." "Yeah?" "Let's go." "Yeah." "Okay." "Well, Billy, I'll see you later, buddy." "Bye, y'all." "Have a fun time." "What?" "What's wrong?" "Um..." "I'm gonna have to take a pass on tonight." "My friend Landry, he had his wisdom teeth pulled today and I told him" "I'd go over there and help." "So..." "Yeah, well, I got a pretty good idea about that." "What's that?" "Okay." "Let's go." "All right." "And then, he's just going on about how," ""Oh, yeah, I talked all about it with Paul Dunley," ""I just played golf with him last weekend.' ' Yeah?"" "I mean, how am I supposed to compete with that?" "You know what I mean?" "I don't play golf." "So they..." "You should learn, it's fun if you bring beer!" "I hate golf." "Could we slow down just a little bit?" "Yeah, sorry." "You know this whole thing is just a boys' club, and you know..." "Honey, you should've known that!" "Okay, can I tell you something?" "Can I tell you something?" "And don't be mad at me, 'cause I didn't invent the world, but nobody likes an angry woman." "I am not angry, I am not angry." "That is the thing." "I have dealt with this with such dignity and they've just been riding roughshod all over me." "You're angry underneath, you see?" "And that, honey, is just a waste of your time." "So, look, you gotta make a plan here." "Gotta plan your move." "Yeah." "So you don't play golf." "You eat, don't you?" "I do." "Okay, here's what you do." "You find out where this guy, Dunley, has his coffee and you go there and you chat him up." "That's a good idea, kind of stalk him." "And, honey, wear your hair down." "Wear it down." "Okay." "(SCHOOL BELL RINGING)" "Hey." "Hey." "I meant to call you." "I am so sorry." "Well, what happened?" "I had to be with my mom last night." "She got some bad news." "I'm sorry, I didn't..." "Is she okay?" "Yeah, it wasn't actually her, it was my aunt." "Some medical stuff." "It looks like she's gonna be okay, though." "(STAMMERING) Sorry, I actually have to get going." "I have to read the entire book of Julius Caesar in 45 minutes so..." "Technically, it's a play." "I'm sorry, Lan." "I'll see you later?" "All right, gentlemen, let's go now, it's Friday." "We got a long weekend ahead of us." "I'm gonna change it up a little bit, here's what we're gonna do." "We're gonna rotate snaps between Saracen and J.D." "Go seven on seven." "Coaches, get them together." "Let's go." "I wanna hear some hustle out here today." "Let's hear it right now." "Let's go!" "(PLAYERS SHOUTING)" "(TWEETS WHISTLE)" "Let's see it again, gentlemen." "Hut!" "MATT:" "It's not that big of a deal." "Well, I don't understand it." "You always take me to my doctor's appointments." "I know, but today is a little bit different, okay?" "Well, I don't like different, and I don't like her." "And I'm going back in the house." "No, you're not." "Now, let me go!" "Please, I've had a really rough day." "I've got a lot of studying to do and it's gonna help me out so much if..." "If you'd just go with her to the doctor." "Please." "This is a bad idea..." "Don't worry, we'll be fine." "So Katie McCoy thinks that I should track down Paul Dunley, like, find him where he eats or something." "You know, like, stalk him kind of thing." "But, I don't know, that's not my style." "It feels pushy to me." "But maybe that's what I need to be doing, because obviously that's what everybody else is doing, you know?" "It's just so frustrating." "Honey, where are we going?" "Honey, what are we doing?" "What is going on?" "I need a drink." "We got a bottle of wine in the fridge." "I need a Scotch-flavored drink." "Let me call Julie." "There is no doubt that J.D. McCoy, he wins out when it comes to physical skills, I understand that." "Hell, he's got the best arm of any high school quarterback I've ever seen." "That includes Jason Street." "That's saying something, right there." "But then again, Matt..." "Well, Matt's got the experience, he's got three seasons under his belt, the team knows how to play with Matt," "I know what I've got with Matt Saracen." "That's a hard decision to have." "After everything that kid's been through, if I bench him halfway through his senior year, it'd kill him." "(SIGHS)" "But, honey, I mean, this is the stuff that happens, this is football." "Yes, it is." "And..." "It just seems to me you don't have to have it set in stone." "You could take it one game at a time, if you want to." "Honey, I don't think you understand." "If I start J.D. McCoy, the significance of that..." "I think I do." "The kid is good, you gotta understand that." "But he's also a 15-year-old kid with a freak show of a father." "If I put him out there on the field," "I don't know if he's gonna be able to handle it." "The fact of the matter is, it's my responsibility to that kid to make sure that he's not pushed too fast and that he's prepared." "(TAMI CHUCKLES)" "What the hell is so funny?" "Honey, oh." "What are you laughing at?" "This is what I love about you." "What?" "That I can't make a decision to save my damn life?" "No, that you're making a decision with..." "With such a conscience and..." "What other coach would ever do that?" "No less, agonize over it like that." "And, you know, I think it's 'cause you're a teacher first, and I know you're gonna say it's corny, but you are a molder of men." "And I find that admirable." "And I find that sexy." "Let me tell you what, I'll have to ruminate on that a little bit longer since you find it so damn sexy." "Okay." "WADE:" "Just go through the motion." "There you go." "There it is." "Nice and slow." "Watch your foot placement." "Give me another good one." "What do you know, gentlemen?" "WADE:" "Hey, Coach." "Hey, Wade." "Good of you to stop by." "Texas quick-fire." "H is in motion, what does X do?" "Watch my strong side." "Right." "Uh..." "I'm looking corner post left." "What's the read?" "Free safety." "What's the life color in the audibles?" "Depends." "Last week it was blue." "This week, it's red." "You been paying attention or something?" "Yes, sir." "Tell me something about yourself." "I set goals and I achieve them, sir." "This isn't a job interview." "I'm asking you, what do you do when you're not playing football?" "Tell me something about yourself." "I play Madden on my Xbox or go swimming." "Usually, I'm just practicing or working out." "You know you need to bulk up some, don't you?" "Eat some chicken fried steak or something." "I'm not allowed to have fried food." "My dad says it's bad for me." "He does, huh?" "I'm gonna watch you throw a few." "WADE:" "Nice and slow." "There you go." "Good job." "Sit anywhere." "Thank you." "WAITRESS:" "Can I get you something to drink?" "I'd love a coffee, thank you." "Okay, great." "Hi, Paul." "How you doing?" "Principal Taylor!" "Nice to see you." "You as well." "Gosh, I don't think I've seen you since our interview this summer, huh?" "I guess it was." "Yeah, that's right." "That's right." "Good, good, good." "Actually, I was just finishing up here." "I have a meeting I need to get to." "I'm looking forward to our meeting this week." "So am I. Yeah." "You know, actually, now that I'm running into you, there are a couple of things" "I would just love to go over with you in a real casual context." "Like I said, I have a meeting, Tami." "I'll make it real brief." "I just wanna make sure you had all the information in terms of what this JumboTron money could get us." "It could actually get us two, maybe three of the teachers that we've lost since the lay-off." "Principal Taylor, this really isn't the proper time." "Right, right." "But I know that you've been talking about it to Garrity on the golf course and things like that." "And so I just wanna make sure that it's gonna be a fair conversation." "There's no reason to get angry about this, Tami." "No, I'm not angry." "I'm just dealing with a school that's understaffed." "When I think about it that way, it makes me angry." "I mean, I'm not angry now, but it's angering." "Look, Tami, you know," "I want more teachers, too." "And more supplies." "But those people gave their money for a JumboTron." "Look, I'll see you next week." "I'm real interested to hear what you have to say." "Okay, bye-bye now." "Okay." "MATT:" "It's not a big deal." "LANDRY:" "You haven't seen your mom since you were a little kid." "I think that qualifies as a big deal." "How did you feel when you saw her?" "I don't know, man." "It was..." "It was weird." "Are y'all gonna see each other again?" "Why are you so obsessed with my mother?" "How's your mother?" "Is your mother doing fine?" "Hi, it's nice to see you." "Hi." "So, are you ready for Hadley's midterm?" "No." "Someone won't let me study." "JULIE:" "I know." "My mom is kind of really obsessed about it." "She's determined that if I don't pass it, then my entire future is, like, corroded." "So do you maybe wanna..." "(LAUGHING)" "Hi, Landry." "Um..." "Cash, this is Landry." "Yeah, Landry." "I'm Cash." "Yeah, I know who you are." "Um..." "We're gonna have a little conversation, first, okay?" "You all right?" "She's fine." "Yeah, it'll be, like, two minutes." "Thank you." "I'm really starting to think that by "aunt,"" "you actually meant Cash the rodeo guy." "Is that..." "I'm starting to kind of piece all this together, Tyra." "Landry, I'm sorry I lied to you." "You did lie to me." "You lied right to my face." "I believed you about your aunt." "I felt bad for you." "I didn't wanna hurt you." "God, I have been really, really stupid for a really, really long time." "We broke up, like, two months ago." "Tell me what's changed since we broke up?" "You still..." "You still hold my hand." "I held your hand at Cloverfield." "It was a scary movie." "You say that I'm your best friend." "Maybe I should've been clearer from the beginning." "We're not together." "If you want to choose a guy that rides horses..." "Yes, he rides horses!" "...and he drives a truck..." "And he drives a truck!" "And wears a big, stupid cowboy hat, then you just tell it to my face!" "Really?" "Yes, I'm choosing him!" "All right." "Well, thank you very much." "What are you doing over there?" "I'm doing problem number two." "I think." "(KNOCKING)" "Hey, surprise!" "What are you doing?" "Well, I was at H-E-B and I saw a few things I thought you might like." "Vanilla creams, right?" "I'll be in my bedroom." "Here." "Thanks." "Grandma?" "This..." "This is Julie." "Hi, Julie, I'm Shelby, Matt's..." "My mom." "Hi, I'm Julie." "It's really nice to meet you." "It's nice to meet you, Julie." "I found a few of Matt's baby pictures and I..." "I thought, maybe Lorraine might like to see them." "That's really cool." "Can I see them?" "Oh, yeah." "You can't do this." "Do what?" "You can't come in here with groceries and baby pictures and act like everything is normal." "I know I can't just..." "I don't need your help, okay?" "I needed it 10 years ago, when you left." "And five years ago." "But I don't need it anymore." "I figured it out." "So..." "Thank you for taking my grandmother to the doctor." "You wanted to help and you helped, now..." "Please, go home." "Sweetheart, I didn't mean to..." "Don't call me that." "I'm an idiot." "Honey, no." "I should never have picked this fight." "Yes, babe." "You should have." "Oh, honey, you don't even mean that, I don't think." "I think you thought it was a bad idea the whole time." "That's not true." "I never said that." "That's not what I thought." "I think it's obvious that you're right and they're wrong." "Period." "Really?" "You're damn right." "You think we need a JumboTron?" "We don't need a JumboTron." "Of course we don't need a JumboTron." "We need more teachers." "Of course we do." "You're right." "They're wrong." "Mmm-hmm." "It doesn't matter, though, 'cause I'm gonna lose tomorrow." "Okay, yeah." "They're gonna get the JumboTron." "In that sense, you lose tomorrow." "But you stood up for what you believed in." "In that sense, you win tomorrow." "Hey." "You can at least make them feel a little guilty about that big old stupid JumboTron." "Thank you, honey." "Look, Grandma..." "I'm sorry that I had her drive you to the doctor the other day." "Oh, honey." "It seemed like a good idea at the time, and..." "It turned out not to be." "So I'm sorry." "Well, now..." "This doesn't mean I forgive her for what she did and I still don't like her, but your daddy, he's..." "He's very difficult." "We know that." "And, you know, maybe..." "Shoot." "Maybe I could've helped her out a little bit more than I did." "What do you mean?" "Oh, I just mean what I said." "And that's it." "Let's not have a big old soap opera about it." "Let's go watch some TV." "All right." "Got your mouthpiece and cleats?" "Yeah." "You gotta remember there's gonna be a different cadence." "Gotta listen to the snap count." "I got it, Coach!" "Pay attention to the snap count." "Just saying you just gotta listen." "So Mitch Stallman, he's a front-office guy?" "Yes, he is." "Hi." "Hi." "I'm glad you called me." "How did you find me?" "There's only two motels in town, so... (CHUCKLES)" "Get you something?" "Can I just get some water, please?" "Thank you." "Thanks." "Look, I know my dad is a jerk." "I mean, I've lived with him," "I know how he yells and throws stuff." "I guess that's why you left." "I'm not gonna say anything bad about your dad, Matthew." "I mean, I was 17 when I got pregnant." "I had only known him a couple months." "I was just a kid." "But I will never..." "Never ever forgive myself for leaving you." "And God knows I don't expect you to forgive me, either." "Well, what do you want?" "I mean..." "Why are you here?" "When you showed up at my door with that paper from that lawyer, and I found out that your dad's in Iraq and you're taking care of Lorraine all by yourself, I..." "I just thought..." "You're all alone in this." "It's too much." "I just felt like a deep..." "I just felt bad." "And I'm not looking for you to forgive me," "I'm not looking for you to call me Mom, but I just really would love to stick around for a while, a few weeks or so," "just to see if I can lend a hand." "(SIGHS)" "All right." "Great." "Thank you." "That's really great." "(WHISTLE BLOWING)" "Stand up." "We've been here an hour." "How much longer are we gonna have to wait?" "Hey." "Mitch, how you doing?" "Doing great, Coach." "How are you?" "Good, good." "Good to see you." "Okay." "So everything's good." "Good." "I talked to Coach Helling, but the deal is we're gonna have to reschedule." "You gotta be kidding me." "I am sorry, fellows, but..." "This whole Thursday night game's got the schedule all screwed up." "But he said we can do it next weekend, if you guys are available." "Next weekend?" "Yes, sir." "Is that gonna work for you?" "Follow me." "Hey, Vince!" "What the hell are you doing?" "Coach, I know you got practice, and I respect that." "But I have got to tell you something." "This kid right here can flat-out play." "He's fast, he's tough as hell, and he can read the field better than any player you got out here." "I guarantee you, and let me tell you something else." "He's got more heart and guts than any kid I've ever coached." "You know what I'm talking about." "You just ask yourself whether you wanna be the one who passed up on the chance." "Take a look at Brian Williams, 'cause I'm telling you what, we drove a hell of a long way to get down here, and I don't know when we're gonna get back." "Let me ask you something, Coach."
