00:08:08,769 --> 00:08:09,980
[grunting]
180
00:08:10,105 --> 00:08:11,149
I want you to hit me, Mike!
181
00:08:16,744 --> 00:08:17,705
You're a runt, Mike.
182
00:08:18,872 --> 00:08:20,292
You're a runt
and you always will be.
183
00:08:20,918 --> 00:08:22,337
But you can hit.
184
00:08:22,462 --> 00:08:24,635
So I'm gonna explain
to you the rules.
185
00:08:26,972 --> 00:08:29,562
First of all, if some fool
starts a fight with you
186
00:08:29,687 --> 00:08:30,771
and you back down,
187
00:08:30,896 --> 00:08:32,399
it's a whippin'
when you get home.
188
00:08:33,401 --> 00:08:34,905
Second, most importantly,
189
00:08:36,408 --> 00:08:39,079
if you fight and don't win,
you get a whuppin'.
190
00:08:39,957 --> 00:08:40,958
Yes, sir.
191
00:08:42,085 --> 00:08:43,338
[Mike's dad] Get inside.
192
00:08:43,463 --> 00:08:45,175
Wash that blood offbefore your mom sees.
193

That's my nose!
197
00:09:13,231 --> 00:09:14,652
I'll trade you this
for that little boy.
198
00:09:14,777 --> 00:09:16,111
No, not yet.
199
00:09:16,780 --> 00:09:18,033
Alright. Well, next week,
200
00:09:18,158 --> 00:09:20,245
I'm gonna teach you how
to light a bottle rocket.
201
00:09:20,328 --> 00:09:22,124
And I'll teach him
who to aim it at.
202
00:09:22,249 --> 00:09:23,627
-Yeah, okay.
-Night-night.
203
00:09:23,752 --> 00:09:26,258
Thanks, honey.
Thank you. Thank you. Mwah!
204
00:09:26,759 --> 00:09:28,095
Sorry I missed Micah tonight.
205
00:09:28,220 --> 00:09:29,807
When's he going back
to Knoxville?
206
00:09:29,932 --> 00:09:32,686
I don't know. He didn't say.
No, he didn't say anything.
207
00:09:32,811 --> 00:09:34,608
-'Cause you didn't let him.
-Stop that.
208
00:09:36,278 --> 00:09:39,491
Alright, well, I guess
I'll get him down for bed.
209
00:09:39,618 --> 00:09:41,454
Yeah, since you
riled him all up, so...
210
00:09:41,580 --> 00:09:44,042
-Bye! Bye!
-Good night, guys.

You know, I found this
227
00:10:29,968 --> 00:10:31,178

228

you love that team.

[Walker] It ain't a big deal.We're just having fun.

[Mike] It is a big deal.I'm the captain.

Coach, you, uh,
wanted to see me?
256
00:11:51,549 --> 00:11:53,594
Son, you're not gonna be
captain of the team this year.
257
00:11:54,219 --> 00:11:55,055
Why not?
258
00:11:56,098 --> 00:11:57,392
In fact, you've been kicked
out of school.
259
00:11:57,518 --> 00:11:59,688
Coach, come on. Please don't
kick me off the team.
260
00:11:59,815 --> 00:12:01,066
You're not listening.
261

Not just the team, the school.
262

Sul Ross doesn't want
you here anymore.
263

How many fights since
you've been here, Michael?
264

Ten? Twenty? Thirty?

President Clark
called me last night.

He said he's heard the name
Mike Flynt for the last time.
267

Coach, this fight, it-it wasn't
a one-sided thing.

Kids fight. I get that. I do.

-But you're different, Mike.
-How so?

You're the common denominator.

as I saw the invitation.

He's already made
a reservation for you.
294

I thought we agreed never to
tell each other what to do.

Hmm.

that deal.

you'd just

those guys.

I don't know, Mike.

00:16:37,494 --> 00:16:39,832
And I thank y'all for
letting me off the hook.
355
00:16:39,957 --> 00:16:42,337
It's just sometimes I wish
I could go back
356
00:16:42,462 --> 00:16:44,007
and do it all over again,
that's all.
357
00:16:44,132 --> 00:16:45,594
Do what, exactly?
358
00:16:45,719 --> 00:16:46,970
My senior year.
359
00:16:47,097 --> 00:16:49,059
I'd like to go back
and play, too,
360
00:16:49,184 --> 00:16:50,813
but my body wouldn't.
361
00:16:50,938 --> 00:16:52,315
Y'all might think I'm crazy,
362
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,903
but I feel like I could
still run with them.

00:16:55,028 --> 00:16:57,951

59-year-old college linebacker?

365
00:17:00,122 --> 00:17:03,420
You know, technically,
I bet you're still eligible.
366

You think I am?
367
00:17:05,551 --> 00:17:06,677
The college rules say that
368
00:17:06,802 --> 00:17:07,930
as long as you got
that senior year,
369
00:17:08,055 --> 00:17:08,932
you can play it.
370
00:17:09,224 --> 00:17:10,853
You still look like
a football player.
371
00:17:12,189 --> 00:17:13,817

Look, Mike, there's been
something I've been
381
00:17:49,221 --> 00:17:50,849
wanting to tell you
for a long time.
382
00:17:52,059 --> 00:17:53,061
Go on.
383
00:17:55,065 --> 00:17:57,613
You know, it's been
over 35 years, and I...
384
00:17:58,781 --> 00:18:01,286
I shouldn't have taken so long
to tell you I'm sorry.
385
00:18:04,502 --> 00:18:05,629
You're sorry?
386

I was a juvenile,
d-dumb as a rock.
387
00:18:08,091 --> 00:18:11,306
I-I got you kicked off the
football team, out of school.

-I deserved a broken nose.
-What?
389
00:18:13,979 --> 00:18:14,938
Yeah.

No.

night when I lost my mind.

You're sorry?
395
00:18:28,423 --> 00:18:29,635

I overheard the guys
400
00:18:44,039 --> 00:18:46,334
and you talking about
trying out for the team again?
401
00:18:46,459 --> 00:18:48,463

Would it be alright if
I stayed for a few more days,

You're an alumnus, right?

Well, almost, uh...
432
00:20:31,336 --> 00:20:33,006
I never finished
my senior year.

That right? Why not?
434
00:20:34,927 --> 00:20:36,221
I got thrown out for fighting.
435
00:20:38,058 --> 00:20:39,269
But I still have that year.
436

-I'm eligible.

To play.
439

I checked, and I still have
that year.

Coach, I'd like to try out
for your team.

Huh.
442
00:20:54,842 --> 00:20:57,220
Yeah. Well, that's a relief.
443
00:20:57,345 --> 00:20:59,392
You know, I thought you were
here for a coaching job,
444
00:20:59,518 --> 00:21:01,271
and I'd have to find a way
to politely explain to you
445
00:21:01,396 --> 00:21:03,316
that we have no openings
on the team.
446
00:21:03,441 --> 00:21:06,031
But this way, we can just
have a good laugh, right?

711
00:31:38,962 --> 00:31:41,509
[players chattering]
712
00:31:44,181 --> 00:31:45,432
Hey, you ever done 'roids?
713
00:31:45,559 --> 00:31:46,393
[scoffs]
714
00:31:46,519 --> 00:31:48,105
There's a nice question.
715
00:31:48,230 --> 00:31:49,191
No.
716
00:31:50,944 --> 00:31:52,154
Were you a hippie?
717
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:53,406
What?
718
00:31:53,532 --> 00:31:54,910
Bet you went organic, huh?
719
00:31:55,035 --> 00:31:57,164
A little creatine, deer antler,
720
00:31:57,290 --> 00:31:58,250
little horny goat weed?
721
00:31:58,375 --> 00:31:59,419
Horny goat?
722
00:31:59,545 --> 00:32:01,632
No, man. I never went organic.
723
00:32:01,757 --> 00:32:04,471
Then how are you doing this
at your age, man?
724
00:32:04,597 --> 00:32:06,767
At the moment, I got no idea.
725
00:32:07,853 --> 00:32:08,981
At least you're an old-timer
726
00:32:09,106 --> 00:32:10,609
that don't know all
the answers.
727
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,575
Hey, uh, what's your name?
728
00:32:15,367 --> 00:32:16,829
-Jeremy.
-Jeremy what?
729
00:32:16,954 --> 00:32:17,915
Jeremy Cartwright.
730
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:19,084
Mike Flynt.
731
00:32:19,209 --> 00:32:20,713
Flynt. Like the stone.
732
00:32:21,254 --> 00:32:22,465
I like that.
733
00:32:22,633 --> 00:32:24,094
Strike a flint,
you get a spark, right?
734
00:32:24,219 --> 00:32:26,181
-Something like that.
-[chuckles]
735
00:32:27,182 --> 00:32:29,104
Hey, what are you
studying here?
736
00:32:29,855 --> 00:32:30,733
Me?
737
00:32:30,858 --> 00:32:32,653
[laughs] Yeah, you.
738
00:32:32,778 --> 00:32:34,156
I'm getting my degree
in education.
739
00:32:34,281 --> 00:32:36,243
I want to teach third grade.
740
00:32:36,952 --> 00:32:37,913
Teach third grade?
741
00:32:38,038 --> 00:32:40,753
Uh, not second, not fourth?
Third?
742
00:32:41,670 --> 00:32:42,715
Third.
743
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:43,757
I like that.
744
00:32:44,259 --> 00:32:45,093
Noble.
745
00:32:45,679 --> 00:32:47,558
We need more nobility
in football.
746
00:32:48,809 --> 00:32:49,728
Yeah.
747
00:32:49,853 --> 00:32:51,106
[indistinct chatter]
748
00:32:51,231 --> 00:32:52,107
Where's the...
749
00:32:52,610 --> 00:32:53,443
Ah...
750
00:32:53,987 --> 00:32:54,988
Ah, there it is.
751
00:32:57,242 --> 00:32:59,623
Hi, sir. I was wondering
if I could discuss my schedule.
752
00:32:59,748 --> 00:33:01,168
Oh, I'm not a--
Uh, I'm a student.
753
00:33:01,752 --> 00:33:03,756
OMG. You're that grandpa
754
00:33:03,881 --> 00:33:05,969
who's on the football team,
aren't you?
755
00:33:06,094 --> 00:33:07,931
Well, I haven't made
the football team yet.
756
00:33:08,056 --> 00:33:09,935
-Are you Greek?
-Irish?
757
00:33:10,644 --> 00:33:11,980
I mean, like,
are you in a frat?
758
00:33:12,105 --> 00:33:13,734
-Excuse me.
-I'm Professor Gail Davis.
759
00:33:13,859 --> 00:33:16,657
And I hope you know
you're in Biochemistry 101.
760
00:33:16,782 --> 00:33:17,743
So let's get into it.
761
00:33:17,868 --> 00:33:18,702
Hey, Mike.
762
00:33:19,246 --> 00:33:20,999
It's one thing to take
our positions on the field,
763
00:33:21,124 --> 00:33:22,711
but don't go taking
our girls now.
764
00:33:22,836 --> 00:33:24,965
[Davis] ...carbohydrates,
the Acetyl-CoA.
765
00:33:25,090 --> 00:33:27,177
Now, brownie points for anybody
who can tell me
766
00:33:27,302 --> 00:33:29,642
what the CoA stands for.
Any smarties?
767
00:33:30,894 --> 00:33:32,270
[Weston] Get loose. Get loose.
768
00:33:32,898 --> 00:33:34,568
Going to individuals
right after this,
769
00:33:34,693 --> 00:33:36,071
so get your minds right.
770
00:33:36,196 --> 00:33:37,322
Ah, come on, old-timer.
771
00:33:37,449 --> 00:33:38,826
Weak little stretch right now.
772
00:33:38,951 --> 00:33:41,039
-Weak little stretch.
-Easy now. Easy now.
773
00:33:41,164 --> 00:33:42,374
I'm old. [groans]
774
00:33:42,500 --> 00:33:44,087
What's up, man? You ready
for me, Father Time?
775
00:33:44,755 --> 00:33:46,424
-[laughs]
-I'll tell you what.
776
00:33:46,550 --> 00:33:48,136
You're out of time, son.
777
00:33:48,261 --> 00:33:49,515
[laughs] We'll see.
778
00:33:50,432 --> 00:33:53,230
-[whistle blows]

779
00:33:53,355 --> 00:33:54,232

[grunting]
781
00:34:00,578 --> 00:34:01,705
How about that?
782
00:34:01,830 --> 00:34:02,750
How about what?
783
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,298
-How about that.
-[Mike grunting]
784
00:34:08,260 --> 00:34:09,847
[grunting continues]
785
00:34:10,472 --> 00:34:12,645
He's like a 59-year-old Rudy.

[grunting]
788
00:34:18,781 --> 00:34:20,158
-That's it. Last one.
-That's it.
789
00:34:20,283 --> 00:34:21,537
Wait, o-one more.
790
00:34:21,662 --> 00:34:23,248
[grunts]
791
00:34:23,373 --> 00:34:24,835
-[yells]
-Come on, Mike.
792
00:34:24,918 --> 00:34:26,755
Making us look bad.
It ain't a contest.
793
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:28,091
-Nice effort, Flynt.
-[exhales]
794
00:34:28,884 --> 00:34:30,931
Contest? Yeah. Contest.
795
00:34:31,056 --> 00:34:32,726
We're gonna do a contest.
796
00:34:32,851 --> 00:34:34,938
-Contest! Alright?
-[men clamor]
797
00:34:35,063 --> 00:34:36,817
Alright,
now I want three benches
798
00:34:36,942 --> 00:34:38,571
lined up right here.
799
00:34:38,696 --> 00:34:41,869
Three of you are gonna lift
these 45-pound plates
800
00:34:41,994 --> 00:34:43,622
-'til the last man quits.
-Yeah.
801
00:34:43,747 --> 00:34:45,500
-Alright?
-Done and done.
802
00:34:45,626 --> 00:34:47,087
-Flynt?
-[inhales deeply]
803
00:34:47,212 --> 00:34:48,465
Of course.
804
00:34:48,591 --> 00:34:50,177
-What? What'd you say?
-[loud exhale]
805
00:34:50,678 --> 00:34:52,600
Haven't used it all up, Coach.
Let's go!
806
00:34:52,725 --> 00:34:54,895
-Alright, let's go.
-[men cheer]

Hey, I'm rootin' for you, Mike.

Somebody better.
809
00:34:57,568 --> 00:34:58,861
Alright, now, get set...
810
00:34:59,780 --> 00:35:02,367

Come on, Mike! You got 'em!
Come on, come on, come on!
817

Keep going! Keep going, Mike!
818

Don't you stop! Mike, come on!

Let's go. You got this.
Let's go!
821

You got it! You got it!
He stopped. Mike, come on!
822
00:35:33,263 --> 00:35:34,432
-Only got one left.
-Let's go!
823
00:35:34,558 --> 00:35:36,604
-Let's go, Mike! Let's go!
-Mike!

From now on,
833
00:36:02,362 --> 00:36:04,785
this exercise
will be known as the...

-Mike Flynt!

No, no, no, no, Mike.
837
00:36:13,886 --> 00:36:14,930
You-you good, man.
838
00:36:15,055 --> 00:36:16,600
You made the team 40 years ago!
839
00:36:16,725 --> 00:36:17,936
-[crosstalk]
-Forty years ago?
840
00:36:18,061 --> 00:36:20,148
Whoa, hey. So I found
the 1970 yearbook
841
00:36:20,273 --> 00:36:21,401
in the library,
and you know what it said?
842
00:36:21,527 --> 00:36:24,114
Said Mr. Flynt made 24 tackles
in one game.
843
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:25,576
How many times
do I have to tell ya,
844
00:36:25,701 --> 00:36:27,162
don't call me Mr. Flynt.
845
00:36:27,287 --> 00:36:28,290
-Uh--
-Call me Mike.
846
00:36:28,415 --> 00:36:29,877
Wait. Hang on. Are you serious?
847
00:36:30,002 --> 00:36:32,339
It's true. And I thought
I was balling with 12 tackles.
848
00:36:32,464 --> 00:36:34,301
Yeah, you could make
24 tackles.
849
00:36:34,427 --> 00:36:35,721
Pfft. In my dreams, maybe.
850
00:36:35,846 --> 00:36:36,974
Well, it starts with dreaming.
851
00:36:37,099 --> 00:36:38,351
Like every week
I would daydream
852
00:36:38,476 --> 00:36:40,022
about the next game
and play this movie
853
00:36:40,147 --> 00:36:41,441
over and over again in my head.
854
00:36:41,567 --> 00:36:43,571
I'd like, just sack
the quarterback
855
00:36:43,696 --> 00:36:45,282
and stuff him for a loss.
You know?
856
00:36:45,407 --> 00:36:47,202
-Yeah.
-Time we got to the real game,
857
00:36:47,327 --> 00:36:48,581
I'd already won a dozen games
858
00:36:48,706 --> 00:36:50,125
in my mind's eye. You get me?
859
00:36:50,250 --> 00:36:51,587
That's like Phil Jackson'sSacred Hoops.
860
00:36:51,712 --> 00:36:53,173
-That's right, exactly.
-Bruce Lee.
861
00:36:53,716 --> 00:36:56,138
-Ooh, Enter the Linebacker.
-Exactly.

Zen and the Art of Ass-kicking,
863
00:36:58,391 --> 00:37:00,478
starring my man, Mike Flynt.
You know what I'm saying?
864
00:37:00,604 --> 00:37:02,065
-Killing me, man.
-[laughter]
865
00:37:02,190 --> 00:37:03,401
You know what?
866
00:37:03,527 --> 00:37:04,780
Maybe I can make 24.
867
00:37:04,905 --> 00:37:06,617
-Hey.
-[Mike] Hey.
868
00:37:06,742 --> 00:37:08,286
Since you're daydreaming,
869
00:37:08,411 --> 00:37:10,040
you might as well make it 25.
870
00:37:10,833 --> 00:37:13,380

Hey, son. Hey, listen.
873
00:37:24,653 --> 00:37:26,615
This is the bad part of my job
and I hate doing it,
874
00:37:26,740 --> 00:37:28,410
but I'm gonna have to wind up
cutting you.
875
00:37:28,536 --> 00:37:30,497
Okay? It's not gonna work out
this year.
876
00:37:30,623 --> 00:37:32,209
Go back, work
on the fundamentals.
877
00:37:32,334 --> 00:37:35,132
I'll see you next year, okay?
See you next year.
878
00:37:35,257 --> 00:37:36,802
Alright? We're gonna gather up.
Alright?
879
00:37:36,927 --> 00:37:38,430
-[whistle blows]
-Gather up!
880
00:37:38,556 --> 00:37:39,975
[player] Alright?
Come on, come on.
881
00:37:41,269 --> 00:37:42,981
Circle up. Circle up. Okay?
882
00:37:43,106 --> 00:37:46,488
Alright then. Coach Clay,
how many we got left?
883
00:37:46,614 --> 00:37:48,366
[Clay] Fifty-four, Coach.
884
00:37:48,491 --> 00:37:51,874
That's it, boys. You made it.
This is your team.
885
00:37:51,999 --> 00:37:53,544
-Yeah!
-Congratulations.
886
00:37:53,669 --> 00:37:54,838
-Alright.
-Yeah.
887
00:37:54,963 --> 00:37:55,964
Does this mean I made it?
888
00:37:56,089 --> 00:37:57,384
Yeah, it means you made it,
Mike.
889
00:37:57,510 --> 00:37:59,640
-You did it, Mike.
-Yeah. You got this, man!
890
00:37:59,765 --> 00:38:01,476
-Congratulations!
-Hey, Coach.
891
00:38:01,602 --> 00:38:03,105
Does this mean I made the team?
892
00:38:03,731 --> 00:38:06,068
See, this is why you never
graduated in the first place.
893
00:38:06,193 --> 00:38:07,112
You don't listen.
894
00:38:07,237 --> 00:38:08,574
Oh, thank you, Coach!
895
00:38:08,699 --> 00:38:10,493
I promise you,
I will not let you down.
896
00:38:10,619 --> 00:38:13,041
-Okay. Alright.

Hey, look at that, huh?
898
00:38:15,170 --> 00:38:17,465
Ahora tú eres mi carnal,Mr. Flynt!
899
00:38:17,591 --> 00:38:19,011
Well, thank you very much,
I think.
900
00:38:20,305 --> 00:38:21,181
You got heart, Flynt.
901
00:38:21,684 --> 00:38:22,726
-Thanks, Captain.
-You bet.
902
00:38:22,851 --> 00:38:23,812
I appreciate you.
903
00:38:24,312 --> 00:38:25,858
-Hey!
-Hey, Jeremy, man.
904
00:38:25,983 --> 00:38:27,194
-Hey, man.
-Ah!

-[men chattering happily]

906
00:38:33,290 --> 00:38:34,499
I'm sorry, man.
907
00:38:39,635 --> 00:38:41,138
-Congratulations.
-Thanks.
908
00:38:41,263 --> 00:38:42,474
You're a great story.

Well, congratulations.

-Oh, you made it!
-[both laughing]
914
00:39:02,515 --> 00:39:03,726
What's going on?
915
00:39:03,851 --> 00:39:05,979
Well, allow me the privilege
916
00:39:06,104 --> 00:39:09,822
of worrying about a husband
who's gonna fight semi-trucks
917
00:39:09,947 --> 00:39:11,364
-every Saturday.
-Come on.
918
00:39:11,491 --> 00:39:12,743
Can I just have
this one moment?
919
00:39:12,868 --> 00:39:14,121
Just this one moment.
920
00:39:14,246 --> 00:39:16,418
Like I said, congratulations.
921
00:39:17,419 --> 00:39:19,339
Well, DeLanie and Lily called.
922
00:39:19,464 --> 00:39:21,218
Uh, our grandson asked
923
00:39:21,343 --> 00:39:23,013
if I could knock
someone's head off.
924
00:39:23,140 --> 00:39:25,519
Uh-huh. What about Micah?
925
00:39:25,644 --> 00:39:27,189
Ah, Micah, I don't get.
926
00:39:27,815 --> 00:39:29,234
Well, he's worried about you.
927
00:39:29,359 --> 00:39:31,740
So he expresses that
by not communicating?
928
00:39:31,865 --> 00:39:33,994
-I don't buy that.
-Maybe he thinks silence
929
00:39:34,119 --> 00:39:36,164
is the only way
to reach you now.
930
00:39:38,001 --> 00:39:38,837
Hey.
931
00:39:39,713 --> 00:39:42,052
It's good. Good. [exhales]
932
00:39:43,972 --> 00:39:46,393
Football is a contact sport.
933
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,525
No, ma'am.
Football is a collision sport.
934
00:39:50,027 --> 00:39:52,239
-That makes me feel better.
-Dance. Dance...

-is a contact sport.
-Ah.
936

What do you think you're doing?
937
00:39:56,163 --> 00:39:58,041
I'm just making my move, woman.

We've all heard stories aboutretirees going back to school

and getting their diplomas,but have you ever heard
942
00:40:06,685 --> 00:40:09,231
of a 59-year-old guygoing back to college
943
00:40:09,356 --> 00:40:10,901
and signing upfor the football team?
944
00:40:11,026 --> 00:40:12,362
[reporter 2]For Mike Flynt, number 49,
945
00:40:12,487 --> 00:40:13,741
age is just a number.
946
00:40:13,866 --> 00:40:15,661
...a Texas grandfatherwho's tearing up
947
00:40:15,786 --> 00:40:17,915
the competition,and it's no pickup game.
948
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:19,376
It's in NCAA football.
949
00:40:19,501 --> 00:40:20,963
Mike Flynt asked himselfthat question
950
00:40:21,088 --> 00:40:21,924
for 36 years,
951
00:40:22,049 --> 00:40:23,594
and now he has finally decided
952
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:25,263
-to do something about it.-Go, Mike.
953
00:40:25,388 --> 00:40:27,810
For 59-year-old grandfatherMike Flynt,
954
00:40:27,935 --> 00:40:29,522
it's a dream that never died.
955
00:40:29,647 --> 00:40:31,149
-He's 59?
-59?
956
00:40:31,274 --> 00:40:33,405
Jeez, man.
He's older than my dad.
957
00:40:33,531 --> 00:40:35,576
One more rep.
The only way we get beat
958
00:40:35,701 --> 00:40:36,787
out on that field
959
00:40:36,912 --> 00:40:38,832
is if you beat yourself
in here.
960
00:40:39,583 --> 00:40:41,169
You get out what you put in.
961
00:40:41,294 --> 00:40:42,464
One more rep.
962
00:40:42,590 --> 00:40:43,676
Don't quit.
963
00:40:44,259 --> 00:40:45,596
That's what I'm talking about,
Flynt.
964
00:40:45,721 --> 00:40:47,390

Hey, Fernie.
969
00:40:56,158 --> 00:40:57,620
You're as strong
as a bull, man,
970
00:40:57,745 --> 00:40:59,164
but you're hitting too high.
971
00:40:59,289 --> 00:41:00,626
Eyes through the thighs,
972
00:41:00,751 --> 00:41:02,755
wrap and squeeze,
drive for five.
973
00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:04,717
You can tackle a T-Rex
like that, man.
974
00:41:04,842 --> 00:41:06,972
Technique. Technique
instead of strength.
975
00:41:07,097 --> 00:41:09,518
Technique and strength. Got it?
976
00:41:10,187 --> 00:41:11,940
Let me see if I can take
my own advice.
977
00:41:12,065 --> 00:41:13,275

00:44:16,016 --> 00:44:17,477
permanent spinal cord injury.
1058
00:44:17,603 --> 00:44:20,065
I'm not clearing you to play
until you've got full strength

00:44:20,190 --> 00:44:21,735
and range of motion

shoulder, arms, and chest.
1061
00:44:25,325 --> 00:44:27,790
[Micah] Dad, this is exactlywhat I was talking about.
1062
00:44:27,915 --> 00:44:30,127
Come on, Micah.
Stop being such a worrywart.
1063
00:44:30,252 --> 00:44:31,839
I'm-I'm following
the doctor's orders--
1064
00:44:31,964 --> 00:44:34,637
Really? Since when do youfollow anyone's orders?
1065
00:44:34,762 --> 00:44:36,890
Dad, it's-it's timeto let it go.
1066
00:44:37,015 --> 00:44:39,104
Just stop it already, please.
1067
00:44:39,938 --> 00:44:41,233
-I can't.-So what?
1068
00:44:41,358 --> 00:44:43,445
Me, Lily, Lanie, Mom,
1069
00:44:43,571 --> 00:44:44,990
we just-- we don't matter?
1070
00:44:45,492 --> 00:44:46,994
I hope you enjoyplaying your game, Dad.
1071
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:48,371
[line disconnects]
1072
00:44:49,542 --> 00:44:50,502

00:44:50,628 --> 00:44:52,297
[indistinct chatter]
1074
00:44:53,215 --> 00:44:55,135
Hey, nice sweatpants, Flynt.
1075
00:44:55,260 --> 00:44:56,972
Hides your diaper nicely.
1076
00:44:57,641 --> 00:44:59,687
Oh, I am so sick of this dude.
1077
00:44:59,812 --> 00:45:02,568
Hey, what's your problem
with me, Stanton?
1078
00:45:02,693 --> 00:45:04,487
You better get outta my face,
old man.
1079
00:45:04,613 --> 00:45:06,784
-You get outta my face.
-How's that busted shoulder?
1080
00:45:06,909 --> 00:45:10,082
-[all shouting]
-Break it up!
1081
00:45:10,207 --> 00:45:11,835
-[yells]
-[shouting]
1082
00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:13,506
Hey! That's enough!
1083
00:45:13,631 --> 00:45:15,678
Get off of me! He's wasting
everybody's time, Coach!
1084
00:45:15,803 --> 00:45:17,515
You hit the showers.
1085
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:18,766
-Come on.
-Hey!
1086
00:45:18,892 --> 00:45:20,938
[overlapping shouting]
1087
00:45:21,063 --> 00:45:22,315
What are you doing, Mike?
1088
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:24,027
Every man has their limits,
Coach.
1089
00:45:24,152 --> 00:45:26,198
And you shouldn't be
anywhere near yours.
1090
00:45:34,923 --> 00:45:36,844
Yeah, I told you.
They're still here.
1091
00:45:36,969 --> 00:45:38,180
-Yeah.
-[engine stops]
1092
00:45:40,225 --> 00:45:41,061
[chuckles softly]
1093
00:45:42,606 --> 00:45:43,859
You remember?
1094
00:45:43,984 --> 00:45:45,360
I do.
1095
00:45:46,697 --> 00:45:49,452
-The first game, boys.
-Hey! What's up, Mike?
1096
00:45:50,453 --> 00:45:52,459
[Mike] I came
to wish you boys luck.
1097
00:45:52,585 --> 00:45:54,087
-Oh, yeah!
-[grunting]
1098
00:45:54,212 --> 00:45:56,800
I know you don't need any luck.
I know. I know.
1099
00:45:56,925 --> 00:45:58,345
Get on the bus. Get on the bus.
1100
00:45:58,470 --> 00:46:00,390
Come on. Even you guys.
Yeah. Come on.
1101
00:46:00,516 --> 00:46:01,602
Hey, Coach.
1102
00:46:01,727 --> 00:46:02,938
-Hey, Mike.
-Hey, uh...
1103
00:46:03,063 --> 00:46:04,107
Decent of you to come by.
1104
00:46:04,232 --> 00:46:05,275
Thanks. Can I have a word?
1105
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:07,154
-Sure.
-Hey, listen. Uh, uh...
1106
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:09,827
I was wondering if I could go
on the bus for a few minutes
1107
00:46:09,952 --> 00:46:11,789
and say a few words
to the boys.
1108
00:46:13,375 --> 00:46:14,211
Why?
1109
00:46:14,878 --> 00:46:16,882
Why? Uh, well,
'cause I, you know,
1110
00:46:17,007 --> 00:46:19,304
I've been around a lot
of football in my day and...
1111
00:46:19,429 --> 00:46:21,767
you know, I feel like if I say
a few words to the boys,
1112
00:46:21,892 --> 00:46:23,061
I could-- I could get 'em--
1113
00:46:23,186 --> 00:46:25,232
Yeah. Let's not confuse
the boys, Mike, huh?
1114
00:46:26,443 --> 00:46:28,071
But I do appreciate
you coming by, Mike.
1115
00:46:28,196 --> 00:46:29,324
See you on Monday.
1116
00:46:29,908 --> 00:46:32,581
First game, let's go!
Time to...
1117
00:46:32,706 --> 00:46:34,084
[announcer]A packed crowd here
1118

at East Texas Stadiumfor the season opener.
1119
00:46:36,714 --> 00:46:38,466
And with muchof the preseason hype
1120
00:46:38,592 --> 00:46:40,764
centered aroundthe 59-year-old linebacker
1121
00:46:40,889 --> 00:46:44,021
Mike Flynt,today, the Sul Ross Lobos
1122
00:46:44,146 --> 00:46:45,606
will have to go without Flynt,
1123
00:46:45,733 --> 00:46:47,528
forced to stay homewith a neck injury.
1124
00:46:47,653 --> 00:46:49,823
-[groans]-Let's get ready to rumble.
1125
00:46:50,448 --> 00:46:52,202
Lobo football!
1126
00:46:54,166 --> 00:46:55,919
Oh...
1127
00:46:56,044 --> 00:46:57,212
Let me help you.
1128
00:46:57,339 --> 00:47:00,343
-I have it, honey. Here...
-Alright.
1129
00:47:00,468 --> 00:47:03,475
[dramatic music playing]
1130
00:47:03,601 --> 00:47:04,812
Alright. Would you get it?
1131
00:47:06,148 --> 00:47:07,400
[sighs deeply]
1132
00:47:07,943 --> 00:47:10,363
[breathing heavily]
1133
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,220
[announcer] And you gottawonder if Coach Sam Weston
1134
00:47:22,345 --> 00:47:23,641
is feeling the pressure,
1135
00:47:23,766 --> 00:47:26,396
as the Lobos loseanother heartbreaker,
1136
00:47:27,064 --> 00:47:28,859
23 to 21.
1137
00:47:28,984 --> 00:47:30,362
Honey, can I help you?
1138
00:47:30,864 --> 00:47:32,951
Yeah, yeah.
Just lift it a little bit.
1139
00:47:33,076 --> 00:47:34,538
-Just a little.
-From underneath?
1140
00:47:34,663 --> 00:47:35,958
-Yeah. Yeah.
-Okay. Just like that?
1141
00:47:36,083 --> 00:47:37,419
-Yeah.
-That's good.
1142
00:47:37,545 --> 00:47:38,921
-Keep going.
-Yeah? That's it.
1143
00:47:39,046 --> 00:47:40,048
Look at that.
1144
00:47:41,093 --> 00:47:43,597
[groans in pain] No! No!
1145
00:47:44,391 --> 00:47:45,936
-No!
-[sighs]
1146
00:47:46,061 --> 00:47:47,187
-Ah!
-[huffs]
1147
00:47:50,528 --> 00:47:51,363
Oh!
1148
00:48:00,047 --> 00:48:01,675
Doctor says it's real simple.
1149
00:48:02,678 --> 00:48:04,723
If I can't lift a football
over my head,
1150
00:48:05,390 --> 00:48:06,519
I can't play.
1151
00:48:07,102 --> 00:48:08,146
Yeah. So...
1152
00:48:09,149 --> 00:48:11,570
-what if you can't play?
-Well, then all this...
1153
00:48:12,445 --> 00:48:13,782
All this is for nothing.
1154
00:48:14,409 --> 00:48:16,830
Nothing matters if I can't be
out there with my team.
1155
00:48:20,087 --> 00:48:22,593
Honey, you don't have
to do this, you know?
1156
00:48:23,176 --> 00:48:26,349
You don't have to prove
anything, to me.
1157
00:48:26,474 --> 00:48:27,309
[Eileen sighs]
1158
00:48:29,021 --> 00:48:32,530
-We're your team too. Remember?
-Of course, I know that.
1159
00:48:32,655 --> 00:48:34,867
And besides, you're supposed
to be thinking about retiring.
1160
00:48:34,992 --> 00:48:36,704
I don't think you wanna do that
1161
00:48:36,829 --> 00:48:38,040
paralyzed and in a wheelchair.
1162
00:48:38,165 --> 00:48:39,251
I'm not gonna get paralyzed.
1163
00:48:39,376 --> 00:48:40,879
Mike, you're a linebacker.
1164
00:48:41,004 --> 00:48:42,464
You can't promise me that.
1165
00:48:45,220 --> 00:48:46,181
Honey.
1166
00:48:47,893 --> 00:48:50,230
-It's just a game.
-It's more than that!
1167
00:48:52,109 --> 00:48:54,364
[dramatic music playing]
1168
00:48:54,489 --> 00:48:56,243
It's a whole lot more
than that.
1169
00:48:56,368 --> 00:48:58,080
[dramatic music playing]
1170
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:07,808
[groans]
1171
00:49:07,933 --> 00:49:10,395
-[Doc] Pull. There you go.
-[groans] Gah.
1172
00:49:10,521 --> 00:49:11,732
[Doc] Slow and steady.
1173
00:49:12,357 --> 00:49:13,318
-Yes, sir.
-Alright.
1174
00:49:13,443 --> 00:49:15,363
[shouting, cheering]
1175
00:49:19,497 --> 00:49:21,960
[crowd groans]
1176
00:49:26,929 --> 00:49:28,682

-[car door opens, closes]
-[indistinct chatter, laughter]
1178
00:49:34,109 --> 00:49:35,696
-You alright with this?
-Yeah, I got it.
1179
00:49:35,821 --> 00:49:37,743
Look, I think I can drive
myself tomorrow, man.
1180
00:49:37,868 --> 00:49:39,580
Are you sure? You know
doctor with the arm, man.
1181
00:49:39,705 --> 00:49:41,792
Nah, thanks. See you tomorrow.
1182
00:49:41,917 --> 00:49:43,170
-Sure?
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1183
00:49:44,923 --> 00:49:46,176
-[Jeremy laughs]
-Hey, Micah!
1184
00:49:46,301 --> 00:49:48,138
-Hey, Dad.
-[Eileen] How you feelin'?
1185
00:49:48,722 --> 00:49:49,808
Uh, better.
1186
00:49:49,933 --> 00:49:51,353
-[car engine starts]
-Yeah?
1187
00:49:53,148 --> 00:49:54,568
-Glad you're here.
-Yeah.
1188
00:49:54,693 --> 00:49:57,573
Uh, hey, you know what?
I could use your help.
1189
00:49:57,700 --> 00:49:59,326
Okay. Hey, let me get that.
1190
00:49:59,452 --> 00:50:01,081
-Yeah. I got it. Yeah.
-Thanks.
1191
00:50:03,418 --> 00:50:05,923
[Micah] Alright. Look,
the cycle harnesses
1192
00:50:06,049 --> 00:50:10,015
the available chemical energy
of acetyl coenzyme A
1193
00:50:10,140 --> 00:50:12,561
into the reducing power
1194
00:50:12,686 --> 00:50:14,692
of nicotinamide adenine
dinucleotide.
1195
00:50:14,817 --> 00:50:16,403
In the end, it's that simple.
1196
00:50:16,904 --> 00:50:19,451
-[laughs]
-Basically, it's metabolism.
1197
00:50:19,577 --> 00:50:21,914
-Amazing.
-It's exciting stuff.
1198
00:50:22,039 --> 00:50:23,250
-Yeah, I know.
-[laughs]
1199
00:50:23,375 --> 00:50:25,420
No, it's amazing
that you're my son.
1200
00:50:25,546 --> 00:50:29,136
Where you get the talent
for this is not from me.
1201
00:50:29,261 --> 00:50:30,180
[chuckles]
1202
00:50:30,931 --> 00:50:31,850
Alright. Uh...
1203
00:50:33,186 --> 00:50:34,481
Let's take a break. Yeah?
1204
00:50:35,608 --> 00:50:38,321
Uh-oh... [clears throat]
Let me guess,
1205
00:50:38,446 --> 00:50:40,868
the girls have pulled out
the heavy artillery.
1206
00:50:40,993 --> 00:50:42,370
Look, Micah, I'm...
1207
00:50:42,495 --> 00:50:45,043
I'm being careful.
I'm going slow.
1208
00:50:45,168 --> 00:50:49,134
You shouldn't be going at all
after a neck injury.
1209
00:50:49,887 --> 00:50:51,306
Come on, at your age?
1210
00:50:51,431 --> 00:50:54,269
Seriously. What, what happens,
God forbid you go out there
1211
00:50:54,394 --> 00:50:55,606
and you end up in a wheelchair?
1212
00:50:55,731 --> 00:50:57,400
Son, you gotta trust me.
1213
00:50:57,526 --> 00:50:59,446
What, like, you're on
some kind of quest?
1214
00:51:00,323 --> 00:51:01,785
Like you're some kind of hero?
1215
00:51:02,578 --> 00:51:04,122
Look, I-I...
1216
00:51:04,750 --> 00:51:07,337
I-I just,
I feel like I could...
1217
00:51:08,215 --> 00:51:10,427
make an impact with these boys,
1218
00:51:10,553 --> 00:51:12,765
these-these kids,
that I could ne--
1219
00:51:12,891 --> 00:51:15,896
[soft, solemn music playing]
1220
00:51:19,988 --> 00:51:20,823
Yeah.
1221
00:51:21,575 --> 00:51:22,409
Okay.
1222
00:51:24,915 --> 00:51:25,749
I get it.
1223
00:51:28,839 --> 00:51:29,675
Look...
1224
00:51:32,012 --> 00:51:34,182
you've always been really good
at giving advice,
1225
00:51:35,603 --> 00:51:38,651
not so good at getting it,
and I think that is a virtue
1226
00:51:40,362 --> 00:51:42,074
you need to pick up on

Keep your hands up. Pop!
1231
00:52:25,744 --> 00:52:27,665
I don't wanna see you cry.
Don't flinch.

1233
00:53:08,956 --> 00:53:10,125
[woman] Hey, honey.
1234
00:53:11,504 --> 00:53:12,588
Hey, Mom.
1235
00:53:14,216 --> 00:53:15,761
Hey, lookie there.

1237
00:53:22,149 --> 00:53:23,193
Oh.
1238
00:53:25,698 --> 00:53:27,993
He loved that scrapbook.
1239
00:53:29,121 --> 00:53:31,794
I... I had no idea he had...
1240
00:53:34,925 --> 00:53:36,845
-I found this.
-Mmm.
1241
00:53:37,387 --> 00:53:38,431
That was his.
1242
00:53:39,977 --> 00:53:41,061
Dad had a Bible?
1243
00:53:41,186 --> 00:53:43,023
-Mm-hmm. He did.
-[scoffs]
1244
00:53:43,651 --> 00:53:45,237
Finally got to him, huh?
1245
00:53:46,363 --> 00:53:48,368
Found a lot to help him
in here.
1246

[pages rustle]
1247
00:53:51,289 --> 00:53:54,630
It was tough watching you two,
those last few years.
1248
00:53:55,758 --> 00:53:58,639
He wanted to talk to you,
you know, wanted it...
1249
00:53:58,764 --> 00:54:01,184
more than practically anything.
1250
00:54:01,309 --> 00:54:02,270
Yeah, well...
1251
00:54:02,980 --> 00:54:04,902
he sure had a funny way
of showing it.
1252
00:54:09,451 --> 00:54:11,454
I don't want for Eileen
to be standing
1253
00:54:11,582 --> 00:54:12,875
where I am one day,
1254
00:54:14,044 --> 00:54:16,464
hearing all that silence
and regret
1255
00:54:18,051 --> 00:54:19,471
when there should be love.
1256
00:54:25,233 --> 00:54:26,570
I'll see you inside.
1257
00:54:44,187 --> 00:54:46,066

[Mike's dad] Let me see thatleft hook. Come on, Mike!
1266
00:55:02,265 --> 00:55:03,811
Turns out,
you're still just a runt.
1267
00:55:03,936 --> 00:55:05,648
You wanna play football
like your daddy, right?
1268
00:55:05,773 --> 00:55:07,025
-Yes, Dad.
-Come on, Micah!
1269
00:55:07,150 --> 00:55:08,235
You can do better than that.
1270
00:55:08,361 --> 00:55:09,321
-I can't.
-Don't quit on me!
1271

-Hit me. Tougher.
-I can't.
1273

Come on, you got it.
Hit me harder.
1274
00:55:14,497 --> 00:55:15,918
Keep going. Come on.
1275
00:55:17,129 --> 00:55:19,174
Get mean, Micah.
Don't quit on me.
1276
00:55:26,104 --> 00:55:29,027
[Micah] Something happenedto my dad on that day.

I was just thinking about youand I wanted to say hi.
1283

Hope to hear from you.
1284
00:55:45,936 --> 00:55:47,480
[Micah] Maybe it was seeing
1285
00:55:47,606 --> 00:55:49,777
his father's prayerfor forgiveness.
1286
00:55:52,908 --> 00:55:54,537
-Or maybe...-[grunts]
1287
00:55:54,662 --> 00:55:56,750
...it was realizingthat he had become his father.

Gotta let the kids score
every now and then

00:56:15,035 --> 00:56:16,371
'cause it's good
for their self-esteem.
1298
00:56:16,496 --> 00:56:18,291
-Man, shut up.
-That's real generous. Right?

-You know what you doing.

-Yup.

Sure. [chuckles]

I can't tell which is better,
1335
00:58:07,010 --> 00:58:08,764
the pain or the numbness.
1336
00:58:08,931 --> 00:58:11,602
You know, uh, nobody here
will think any less of you
1337
00:58:11,727 --> 00:58:12,896
if you take it a bit easy.
1338
00:58:13,021 --> 00:58:14,733
Don't you start with me,
Jeremy.

some love.

Disrespect Mike again,
1344
00:58:27,259 --> 00:58:29,847
I'll rip your arm off
and I'll beat your ass with it.
1345
00:58:29,972 --> 00:58:31,141
-Is that right?
-Yeah.
1346
00:58:31,266 --> 00:58:32,853
-Yeah?
-That's right.
1347
00:58:34,565 --> 00:58:36,902
[Weston] That's it for the day.
Hit the showers!
1348
00:58:37,027 --> 00:58:39,074
-Be seeing you.
-It's alright, Mike.

00:58:41,995 --> 00:58:42,831
Flynt.
1350
00:58:47,716 --> 00:58:48,717
Yes, Coach?
1351
00:58:50,556 --> 00:58:53,937
What-what is this beef between
you and Stanton, anyway?
1352
00:58:54,062 --> 00:58:55,147
It's nothing, Coach.
1353
00:58:55,983 --> 00:58:57,402
It's for us to resolve.
1354
00:58:59,447 --> 00:59:00,784
Okay. Well, how you feelin'?

-I'm great.
-Yeah. Hey.
1356
00:59:03,957 --> 00:59:05,544
I'm giving you
the green light, Flynt.
1357
00:59:07,297 --> 00:59:08,465
Not to play,
1358
00:59:09,092 --> 00:59:11,138
but to travel with us
in full uniform.
1359
00:59:11,847 --> 00:59:12,683
Thank you, Coach.
1360
00:59:12,808 --> 00:59:13,936

-[thunder rumbles]
-[whistle blows]
1363
00:59:18,611 --> 00:59:20,490
I thought about what
you asked me the other day,
1364
00:59:20,991 --> 00:59:22,828
and you know, I think...
1365
00:59:23,621 --> 00:59:25,584
the greatest
football movie ever?
1366
00:59:25,709 --> 00:59:26,794
It's The Longest Yard.
1367
00:59:27,295 --> 00:59:28,589
-Good one. Great one.
-Yeah.
1368
00:59:28,714 --> 00:59:30,342
But you gotta check out
1369
00:59:31,011 --> 00:59:32,305
North Dallas Forty.
1370
00:59:32,848 --> 00:59:34,309
-North Dallas Forty?-Yeah.
1371
00:59:35,102 --> 00:59:37,816
I'll give it a try, bro.
I don't know, man.
1372
00:59:37,941 --> 00:59:39,695
The Longest Yard... [chuckles]
1373
00:59:39,820 --> 00:59:41,198
-...that cracks me up, man.
-Yeah.
1374
00:59:42,576 --> 00:59:43,871
Adam Sandler, man. He the man.
1375
00:59:43,996 --> 00:59:45,791
Adam Sandler?
He wasn't even born
1376
00:59:45,916 --> 00:59:46,959
when that movie was made.
1377
00:59:47,084 --> 00:59:48,461
Burt Reynolds starred
in that movie.
1378
00:59:48,587 --> 00:59:50,257
-He's the man.
-We need a trainer!
1379
00:59:50,382 --> 00:59:52,638
-Doc! Get over here!
-It's Jamal!
1380

-Jamal!
-Trainer!

-Jamal!

-Hey, hey, hey. Listen.
-Everybody, real slow.

00:59:59,568 --> 01:00:00,696

-Real slow.

[Jeremy speaks indistinctly]
1387
01:00:06,957 --> 01:00:09,087
Ain't that crazy?
But with you out the game,
1388
01:00:09,630 --> 01:00:12,050
-guess who's gotta be the hero.
-[Mike laughs]
1389

-Hey, Mike.
-Hey. Hey, champ.
1390
01:00:16,769 --> 01:00:18,772
Let's see if you can make
this man smile.
1391
01:00:18,897 --> 01:00:19,733
[Mike] Uh-oh.
1392
01:00:22,322 --> 01:00:23,323
What's up?
1393
01:00:25,285 --> 01:00:26,955
I'm sorry y'all came
all the way out here.
1394
01:00:27,583 --> 01:00:28,584
Aw.
1395
01:00:29,962 --> 01:00:31,632
Mike, you know
what they told me, man?
1396
01:00:31,757 --> 01:00:34,179
They said I might never play
football again.
1397

01:00:38,562 --> 01:00:40,566
I'm the first in my family
to go to college.
1399
01:00:43,071 --> 01:00:44,116
I'm supposed to go pro.
1400
01:00:44,241 --> 01:00:46,203
[exhales]
Well, you better go pro
1401
01:00:46,328 --> 01:00:47,915
'cause you ain't making it
as a rapper.
1402
01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,043
Yeah, I'll be taking over
that too.
1403
01:00:50,168 --> 01:00:51,505
[laughter]
1404
01:00:51,630 --> 01:00:52,465
Hey, Jamal.
1405
01:00:53,008 --> 01:00:55,262
Listen, going pro is
a long shot for anyone,
1406
01:00:55,387 --> 01:00:57,643
but no one knows
whether you're gonna get out
1407
01:00:57,768 --> 01:00:59,062
on that field again but you.
1408
01:00:59,980 --> 01:01:01,233
You work hard,
1409
01:01:01,358 --> 01:01:02,903
you'll get out there again.
1410
01:01:03,028 --> 01:01:04,489
But how do you know that?
1411
01:01:04,615 --> 01:01:06,326
Ever met a linebacker my age?
1412
01:01:06,451 --> 01:01:08,080
I'm back on the field.
1413
01:01:08,747 --> 01:01:10,375
And when you get out of here,
1414
01:01:10,500 --> 01:01:12,923
I expect you to be out there
rooting for me, right?
1415
01:01:13,048 --> 01:01:15,260
That first tackle,
it's gonna be for you.
1416
01:01:16,889 --> 01:01:19,352
I pity the fool
that go against you, Mike.

but is dressedand finally cleared to play,
1422
01:01:34,508 --> 01:01:37,262

is on their feet,

You're not calling that?

Mrs. Flynt.

Yeah.

01:03:29,655 --> 01:03:31,784
You should've played him today.
1479
01:03:32,367 --> 01:03:33,453
You know what?
1480
01:03:33,579 --> 01:03:35,833
When I go in
to have my patience tested,
1481
01:03:35,958 --> 01:03:38,338
the results
are always negative.

01:03:39,466 --> 01:03:40,467
That's funny.
1483
01:03:40,593 --> 01:03:42,220
Yeah. I'll be here all week.
1484
01:03:43,932 --> 01:03:45,268

I'm fine, thank you.
How are you?
1488
01:04:00,007 --> 01:04:01,677
Just get in the car, Eileen.

You can talk to the refs
that way. Not me.

Come on, Eileen.
I'm just not in the mood.

Oh, really?

01:04:14,411 --> 01:04:15,871
Well, I'm not getting
in the car with you
1497
01:04:15,996 --> 01:04:17,374
when you're like that.
1498

Hey.

They should have played you
tonight, Mike.
1511
01:05:05,095 --> 01:05:06,013
Yeah.

Thanks for the ride, Jeremy.

I was proud of you today.

Yeah, they finally came.
1525
01:06:14,191 --> 01:06:15,611
For the game.
1526
01:06:15,736 --> 01:06:17,030
Wanted to surprise you.
1527
01:06:21,957 --> 01:06:23,836
I'm sorry I yelled at you.
1528
01:06:24,755 --> 01:06:26,131
Thank you.
1529
01:06:26,256 --> 01:06:28,136
Honestly, Eileen--
1530
01:06:28,261 --> 01:06:31,894
You never once asked me
if this lunatic mission
1531
01:06:32,019 --> 01:06:33,355
you're on was okay with me.
1532
01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:36,026
-Of course, I did.
-No, that is a load of bull!
1533
01:06:36,904 --> 01:06:38,949
You made a decision.
You're good at that.
1534
01:06:39,074 --> 01:06:40,994
You made a decision
and we all have to follow you
1535
01:06:41,119 --> 01:06:43,250
no matter
what the ramifications.
1536
01:06:43,375 --> 01:06:45,170
-And they can be pretty severe.
-[sighs]
1537
01:06:45,295 --> 01:06:47,382
-I'm sorry, babe.
-No, listen.
1538
01:06:48,969 --> 01:06:50,263
Listen to me.
1539
01:06:54,187 --> 01:06:58,488
Because, believe it or not,
tonight, I almost left you.
1540
01:06:58,614 --> 01:07:02,412
I got in that truck
and I just drove.
1541
01:07:02,538 --> 01:07:05,711
Then I thought about it,
and I'm a West Texas girl.
1542
01:07:05,836 --> 01:07:08,676
I don't turn tail,
so I came back. [chuckles]
1543
01:07:09,593 --> 01:07:11,431
Because I made a decision
of my own.
1544
01:07:14,687 --> 01:07:17,776
I'm with you on this.
1545
01:07:19,196 --> 01:07:22,119
I know why you have to do this
1546
01:07:22,244 --> 01:07:24,039
and if Coach puts you
in that game,
1547
01:07:24,164 --> 01:07:28,005
and we both know that's
a big if, I'm with you
1548
01:07:29,592 --> 01:07:32,389
with all my heart
and sincerity.
1549
01:07:34,685 --> 01:07:36,649
On three conditions.
1550
01:07:37,816 --> 01:07:39,778
[sighs] First:
1551
01:07:41,491 --> 01:07:43,370
you don't ever make a decision
1552
01:07:43,495 --> 01:07:46,585
that affects all of us
without asking me,
1553
01:07:46,710 --> 01:07:48,964
not telling, asking me first.
1554
01:07:50,676 --> 01:07:53,306
And two: you continue
to suit up
1555
01:07:53,431 --> 01:07:56,939
and pray to God
that you finish this season
1556
01:07:57,064 --> 01:07:59,442
because if you don't,
you are not gonna be able
1557
01:07:59,568 --> 01:08:01,824
to live with yourself
and then none of us can.
1558
01:08:03,952 --> 01:08:05,330
And the third?
1559
01:08:07,876 --> 01:08:09,129
Promise me...
1560
01:08:11,008 --> 01:08:13,305
you promise me... [sighs]
1561
01:08:13,430 --> 01:08:16,059
...that you're not gonna do
anything out on that field
1562
01:08:16,184 --> 01:08:17,813
that you are not certain
that you can do.
1563
01:08:17,938 --> 01:08:20,235
What? I can do it all.
1564
01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:23,115
-No, you cannot do it all.
-I swear I can.
1565
01:08:23,241 --> 01:08:26,749
You cannot,
you stubborn old man.
1566
01:08:26,874 --> 01:08:28,251
Now promise me.
1567
01:08:30,088 --> 01:08:31,717
Because that...
1568
01:08:32,926 --> 01:08:34,346
I believe in.
1569
01:08:35,307 --> 01:08:36,977
Your promises.
1570
01:08:37,102 --> 01:08:38,522
[solemn music playing]
1571
01:08:42,613 --> 01:08:44,324
I promise.
1572
01:08:50,212 --> 01:08:52,633
Oh, good, Mike.
You're still here. Thank you.
1573
01:08:52,758 --> 01:08:54,302
Sorry I'm late. No, no. Sit.
1574
01:08:54,427 --> 01:08:55,681
I was
at the chancellor's office.
1575
01:08:55,806 --> 01:09:00,440
It seems that Fernie
is, uh, failing philosophy.
1576
01:09:01,567 --> 01:09:04,156
Yeah, a class that I think
even Plato would agree
1577
01:09:04,281 --> 01:09:07,538
he, uh, does not need
and should not have taken.
1578
01:09:07,663 --> 01:09:12,089
Uh... But you,
how are you feelin'?
1579
01:09:12,214 --> 01:09:14,176
-Great.
-Mm-hmm.
1580
01:09:14,301 --> 01:09:15,971
You'd say that
even if you weren't.
1581
01:09:16,096 --> 01:09:17,349
[laughs]
1582
01:09:17,516 --> 01:09:21,607
Now, Mike, you know
Kevin Everett, right?
1583
01:09:21,734 --> 01:09:22,818
Tight end for the Bills.
1584
01:09:22,943 --> 01:09:24,947
That's right.
For the Bills. Yeah.
1585
01:09:25,073 --> 01:09:26,324
And did you see that game?
1586
01:09:27,828 --> 01:09:28,997
I did, sir.
1587
01:09:29,122 --> 01:09:31,168
He fractured his spine
right on that field.
1588
01:09:33,130 --> 01:09:37,640
Laying there, only thing
he could move was his eyeballs.
1589
01:09:39,727 --> 01:09:40,771
Mike...
1590
01:09:42,357 --> 01:09:44,277
if something were to happen
to you, if you got hurt,
1591
01:09:45,864 --> 01:09:49,037
it would destroy every soul
on this team forever.
1592
01:09:50,791 --> 01:09:53,295
You know that.
They'd never be the same.
1593
01:09:53,421 --> 01:09:57,054
[clears throat] And it would
destroy mine as well.
1594
01:09:57,179 --> 01:10:00,227
[dramatic music playing]
1595
01:10:02,314 --> 01:10:03,483
Yes, sir.
1596
01:10:03,609 --> 01:10:05,738
There's one game left
in the season, Mike.
1597
01:10:05,863 --> 01:10:10,163
So, tell me, what can you do?
1598
01:10:14,254 --> 01:10:15,508
Uh...
1599
01:10:17,302 --> 01:10:19,932
I can be your blocking back
for your field goal team.
1600
01:10:20,057 --> 01:10:22,020
Last game you had two
field goals blocked.
1601
01:10:22,145 --> 01:10:25,402
No one's gonna run over me.
I guarantee you that.
1602
01:10:28,534 --> 01:10:29,743
Hmm.
1603
01:10:32,374 --> 01:10:33,291
Okay.
1604
01:10:35,714 --> 01:10:36,715
Okay?
1605
01:10:41,433 --> 01:10:43,522
[Eileen]
Brought your water bottle.
1606
01:10:43,647 --> 01:10:46,068
[exhales] Thanks, darlin'.
1607
01:10:46,193 --> 01:10:47,487
What's this?
1608
01:10:52,540 --> 01:10:54,960
I didn't know your daddy
had a Bible.
1609
01:10:55,921 --> 01:10:58,761
Mama gave it to me
the last time I was there.
1610
01:10:58,886 --> 01:11:01,348
Who would've thought, huh?
1611
01:11:04,271 --> 01:11:05,188
[Mike grunts]
1612
01:11:08,864 --> 01:11:11,493
[lawnmower rumbles]
1613
01:11:13,999 --> 01:11:14,917
Micah?
1614
01:11:16,336 --> 01:11:17,172
Micah!
1615
01:11:18,801 --> 01:11:20,596
Mom, what... what happened?
1616
01:11:20,763 --> 01:11:22,558
No, nothing. Nothing happened.
1617
01:11:22,683 --> 01:11:24,937
I just wanted to come ask you
for a favor.
1618
01:11:25,062 --> 01:11:30,030
I know that you and your father
haven't spoken in some time
1619
01:11:30,155 --> 01:11:33,161
and the trainers have cleared
him to play tomorrow
1620
01:11:33,286 --> 01:11:37,004
and I think you should be
at the game and watch.
1621
01:11:37,129 --> 01:11:39,174
I don't wanna watch him
break his neck.
1622
01:11:39,299 --> 01:11:40,803
He won't. [chuckles]
1623
01:11:40,928 --> 01:11:42,765
-He made me a promise.
-A promise?
1624
01:11:42,890 --> 01:11:44,309
Mm-hmm.
1625
01:11:44,434 --> 01:11:47,232
The Mike Flynt Reunion Tour,
it's...
1626
01:11:48,316 --> 01:11:49,778
might be the most selfish
thing I've ever seen.
1627
01:11:49,903 --> 01:11:53,704
No, it isn't about him
being selfish, honey, it's...
1628
01:11:55,415 --> 01:11:56,249
It's about regret.
1629
01:11:56,374 --> 01:11:57,628
Regret for what?
1630
01:11:57,753 --> 01:11:59,464
About all sorts of things,
Micah.
1631
01:12:00,801 --> 01:12:02,429
Him and his dad.
1632
01:12:02,555 --> 01:12:04,266
-Him and football.
-Mm.
1633
01:12:05,017 --> 01:12:06,895
Him and you.
1634
01:12:07,022 --> 01:12:10,863
He has a chance
to redo his senior year
1635
01:12:10,988 --> 01:12:14,286
and it's a chance to let go
of that regret,
1636
01:12:14,411 --> 01:12:16,081
and maybe if he
lets go of that regret,
1637
01:12:16,206 --> 01:12:18,712
he'll start to be able
to let go of the other ones.
1638
01:12:18,837 --> 01:12:20,799
He wants to be a better man.
1639
01:12:21,967 --> 01:12:23,764
Better father most of all.
1640
01:12:24,557 --> 01:12:26,268
I'm 27 years old.
1641
01:12:27,437 --> 01:12:28,941
It's a little late. [scoffs]
1642
01:12:29,066 --> 01:12:30,694
And he wants me to forgive him
1643
01:12:30,819 --> 01:12:32,906
for being the fatherhe's always been now?
1644
01:12:33,031 --> 01:12:34,492
I know, I get that.
1645
01:12:35,202 --> 01:12:37,833
And I do not blame you
for being frustrated.
1646
01:12:37,958 --> 01:12:39,670
He's never said sorry to me,
1647
01:12:40,756 --> 01:12:43,762
not once, about anything.
1648
01:12:43,887 --> 01:12:45,849
-He wasn't brought up that way.
-Yeah, neither--
1649
01:12:48,395 --> 01:12:49,857
Neither was I.
1650
01:12:49,982 --> 01:12:51,694
[somber music playing]
1651
01:12:51,819 --> 01:12:53,866
This game tomorrow,
1652
01:12:55,367 --> 01:12:58,206
it's a second chance, Micah.
1653
01:13:01,171 --> 01:13:03,759
I just think it would mean
a lot to him.
1654
01:13:04,887 --> 01:13:06,264
He's my father.
1655
01:13:08,727 --> 01:13:12,444
It's not my job
to heal him of his sins.
1656
01:13:18,038 --> 01:13:20,628
Fifty-nine-year-old Mike Flynt
made national headlines
1657
01:13:20,753 --> 01:13:23,926
walking on the team at Sul Ross
State in Alpine, Texas.
1658
01:13:24,051 --> 01:13:26,764
A quest that began
some 35 years ago ends
1659
01:13:26,889 --> 01:13:28,936
in the season finale
on Senior Day.
1660
01:13:29,853 --> 01:13:31,774
Mike, how does it feel to be
back on the gridiron?
1661
01:13:31,899 --> 01:13:35,322
It's a dream, a dream
I've had for a long time.
1662
01:13:35,447 --> 01:13:38,787
Now, almost four decades later,
the Division III college
1663
01:13:38,914 --> 01:13:41,043
and the current head coach
are giving him another chance.
1664
01:13:41,168 --> 01:13:42,713
[reporter] The questionthe entire nation
1665
01:13:42,838 --> 01:13:44,049
is asking themselves,
1666
01:13:44,174 --> 01:13:45,928
is tonight the night
1667
01:13:46,053 --> 01:13:47,931
that Mike Flynt will finallyget a chance
1668
01:13:48,056 --> 01:13:51,021
to secure his namein the history books?
1669
01:13:51,146 --> 01:13:52,983
[announcer] It's a beautifulnight here at Jackson Field,
1670
01:13:53,108 --> 01:13:56,323

1671
01:13:56,448 --> 01:13:58,827
5-5, take on their rivals,
1672
01:13:58,954 --> 01:14:01,124
the 10-0Texas Lutheran Bulldogs.
1673
01:14:01,249 --> 01:14:02,419
It's a sold-out crowd
1674
01:14:02,545 --> 01:14:04,923
where everyone has cometo see Mike Flynt,
1675
01:14:05,048 --> 01:14:06,468
the 59-year-old linebacker
1676
01:14:06,594 --> 01:14:08,681
who has been plaguedwith injuries all season.
1677
01:14:08,806 --> 01:14:12,856
[game announcer] And now
the 2007 Sul Ross Lobos.
1678
01:14:12,981 --> 01:14:14,527
[announcer] And ifMike Flynt plays tonight,
1679
01:14:14,652 --> 01:14:16,697
he will be the oldestcollege football player
1680
01:14:16,822 --> 01:14:18,366
to ever step on the gridiron.
1681
01:14:18,491 --> 01:14:22,375
Buckle your seat belts.This should be a good one.
1682
01:14:22,500 --> 01:14:23,627
[whistle blows]
1683
01:14:23,752 --> 01:14:25,674
5:43 leftin the first quarter.
1684
01:14:25,799 --> 01:14:27,636
Tight left. [indistinct] Ready!

[announcer] Still 0-0.
1686

The Lobos offensebacked up again,
1687
01:14:32,688 --> 01:14:33,939
deep in their own territory.
1688
01:14:34,066 --> 01:14:36,153
Watch that tight.
Watch that tight.
1689
01:14:37,237 --> 01:14:39,702
Come on now, Cap!
Here you go, Kyle!

Ooh! Big hit!And Willie Simmons...

It's alright, Kyle!

[announcer] ...with a huge hiton Braddick,

his third sack of the night.
1697
01:14:55,065 --> 01:14:57,404
The Bulldogs'All-American linebacker.
1698
01:14:57,530 --> 01:14:58,614
Let's go!
1699
01:14:58,739 --> 01:15:00,242
It's alright! It's alright!
1700
01:15:00,367 --> 01:15:03,040
[announcer] That willbring up a big third down
1701
01:15:03,165 --> 01:15:04,501
and long.
1702
01:15:06,046 --> 01:15:07,633
Braddick, back under center.
1703
01:15:07,758 --> 01:15:09,512
Gonna send a manover in motion.
1704
01:15:09,637 --> 01:15:11,431
Left side, drops back.
1705
01:15:11,557 --> 01:15:13,101
From the center...
1706
01:15:13,226 --> 01:15:17,150
Picked off. That's Reefer,free safety for the Bulldogs.
1707
01:15:18,195 --> 01:15:20,743
Down near the sideline,cuts back at the 10,
1708
01:15:20,868 --> 01:15:22,454
into the end zone.
1709
01:15:22,580 --> 01:15:24,332
Touchdown, Texas Lutheran.
1710
01:15:26,253 --> 01:15:27,923
Just like that, the Bulldogs
1711
01:15:28,048 --> 01:15:29,843
get on the board firstwith a pick six.
1712
01:15:29,968 --> 01:15:32,305
Braddick was lookingfor Jeremy Cartwright
1713
01:15:32,432 --> 01:15:33,851
who is five catches away
1714
01:15:33,976 --> 01:15:35,939
from the school recordof 80 receptions.
1715
01:15:36,064 --> 01:15:40,531
Easier said than done goingagainst this Bulldog defense.
1716
01:15:40,656 --> 01:15:44,079
[suspenseful music playing]
1717
01:15:44,206 --> 01:15:46,459
1:45 left to goin the first half.
1718
01:15:46,585 --> 01:15:48,964
Bulldogs still up 7-0.
1719
01:15:49,089 --> 01:15:50,759
And if this Lobo offense
1720
01:15:50,886 --> 01:15:53,807
can't find a way to score orget into field goal territory,
1721
01:15:53,932 --> 01:15:57,775
this sold-out crowdmay not get to see Mike Flynt
1722
01:15:57,900 --> 01:15:59,528
get into the final gameof the season.
1723
01:15:59,653 --> 01:16:01,073
You got this, men. Let's go.
1724
01:16:02,115 --> 01:16:03,285
[announcer] Here's the snap.
1725
01:16:04,788 --> 01:16:07,417
Jeremy Cartwright,he makes a move inside.
1726
01:16:07,545 --> 01:16:08,837
Ball! Ball! Ball! Ball!
1727
01:16:08,962 --> 01:16:10,674
[announcer] It's loose!Scramble for the ball.
1728
01:16:10,799 --> 01:16:13,556
[clamoring]
1729
01:16:13,681 --> 01:16:15,142
That's Lobos'! That's Lobos'!
1730
01:16:15,267 --> 01:16:18,315
That's Lobos' ball!
That's Lobos' ball! Lobos!
1731
01:16:18,982 --> 01:16:20,988
[announcer]The Bulldogs have it!
1732
01:16:21,113 --> 01:16:22,405
[disappointed groans]
1733
01:16:22,533 --> 01:16:24,662
[announcer] With 1:25left in the first half,
1734
01:16:24,787 --> 01:16:26,582
you've gotta wonder,is time running out
1735
01:16:26,707 --> 01:16:29,002
for Mike Flyntand this Lobo team?
1736
01:16:29,127 --> 01:16:32,050
Is that ball broken?
You don't like it? Forget it.
1737
01:16:32,175 --> 01:16:34,054
Get out of my sight.
Get out of my sight.
1738
01:16:34,179 --> 01:16:36,935
Hey, we're still in this!
We're still in this!
1739
01:16:37,060 --> 01:16:39,316
[announcer] 1:25 to goin the first half.
1740
01:16:39,441 --> 01:16:40,859
You get the feelingthat Hot Rod Harrison
1741
01:16:40,986 --> 01:16:42,320
won't waste this opportunity.
1742
01:16:42,445 --> 01:16:45,243
Shotgun snap. Harrison lookingdown the middle.
1743
01:16:46,622 --> 01:16:48,375
Caught at the 25.
1744
01:16:48,500 --> 01:16:52,550
Inside the 20. Downto the Lobos' 18-yard line.
1745
01:16:52,676 --> 01:16:54,638
Harrison's gonna hurry upto the line of scrimmage,
1746
01:16:54,763 --> 01:16:56,266
working with threewide receivers.
1747
01:16:56,391 --> 01:16:58,646
24. Watch 33! Watch 33!
1748
01:16:58,771 --> 01:17:00,774
-Cover two, cover two.-Fernie Acosta trying
1749
01:17:00,899 --> 01:17:03,196
desperately to gethis Lobo defense lined up.
1750
01:17:03,321 --> 01:17:05,283
Harrison has beenall over the field tonight.
1751
01:17:05,408 --> 01:17:06,745
Quarterback draw.Up the middle.
1752
01:17:06,870 --> 01:17:08,331
Gets one block.Spinning at the ten.
1753
01:17:08,456 --> 01:17:09,877
Leaping at the five.
1754
01:17:10,002 --> 01:17:11,254
Into the end zone.
1755
01:17:11,379 --> 01:17:13,634
Touchdown, Bulldogs.
1756
01:17:13,759 --> 01:17:15,679
-Hot Rod Harrison.-Oh man!
1757
01:17:17,057 --> 01:17:18,894
[announcer] And thatwill end the first half.
1758
01:17:19,019 --> 01:17:23,654
The Texas Lutheran Bulldogsdominating, up 14-0.
1759
01:17:23,779 --> 01:17:26,785
And after a journey that hastaken nearly 30 years,
1760
01:17:26,910 --> 01:17:29,081
the senior, Mike Flynt,finds himself
1761
01:17:29,206 --> 01:17:31,419
with only one halfa football left
1762
01:17:31,545 --> 01:17:33,256
before the clockstrikes midnight.
1763
01:17:33,381 --> 01:17:34,467
Hey, Flynt.
1764
01:17:35,343 --> 01:17:37,347
Listen, uh, I'm gonna need
your help.
1765
01:17:37,472 --> 01:17:39,142
Alright? Just follow my lead.
1766
01:17:39,267 --> 01:17:41,273
-Yes, sir.
-Alright.
1767
01:17:41,398 --> 01:17:42,650
[sighs]
1768
01:17:56,428 --> 01:17:58,974
Y'all just quit on me!
1769
01:18:01,396 --> 01:18:05,362
In front of the entire country,
you quit!
1770
01:18:06,448 --> 01:18:08,786
It is the final game
of the season,
1771
01:18:08,911 --> 01:18:12,084
the last game some
of you will ever play!
1772
01:18:13,211 --> 01:18:17,219
Are you gonna play this game or
are you gonna lay down and die?
1773
01:18:17,344 --> 01:18:18,430
Hm?
1774
01:18:20,058 --> 01:18:22,104
Let me know what you decide
1775
01:18:22,229 --> 01:18:24,902
'cause I am leaving here
until you figure it out.
1776
01:18:25,027 --> 01:18:26,780
Coaches, let's go.
1777
01:18:28,241 --> 01:18:29,201
[locker door opens]
1778
01:18:29,326 --> 01:18:31,373
[indistinct chatter]
1779
01:18:33,335 --> 01:18:34,880
[coach] Leave these boys to it.
1780
01:18:42,896 --> 01:18:43,731
[door slams]
1781
01:18:48,448 --> 01:18:49,743
You know...
1782
01:18:51,872 --> 01:18:53,876
Damn it, guys, I feel beat up.
1783
01:18:54,920 --> 01:18:56,799
I've spent the last few months
1784
01:18:56,924 --> 01:18:59,763
just getting the crap
kicked out of me.
1785
01:18:59,888 --> 01:19:03,145
Sometimes-- No, not sometimes,
pretty much all the time,
1786
01:19:03,270 --> 01:19:04,523
I just wanna say I'm done.
1787
01:19:04,648 --> 01:19:06,902
I'm done with the pain.
1788
01:19:07,027 --> 01:19:08,864
I'm done with the achin' bones.
1789
01:19:08,989 --> 01:19:11,159
I'm done with the torn muscles.
1790
01:19:14,041 --> 01:19:16,213
But you know,
1791
01:19:16,338 --> 01:19:19,384
every day, there's
this five-minute span of time
1792
01:19:20,763 --> 01:19:24,019
where I tell myself
it's worth it.
1793
01:19:27,317 --> 01:19:28,654
It's worth it.
1794
01:19:31,158 --> 01:19:34,667
And it's in that five minutes I
remember why I came back here.
1795
01:19:34,792 --> 01:19:37,087
It has nothing to do with ego,
boys.
1796
01:19:37,212 --> 01:19:39,216
It has nothing to do
with how badly I botched
1797
01:19:39,341 --> 01:19:42,097
my senior season back in 1971,
1798
01:19:42,222 --> 01:19:44,017
which, by the way,
was so long ago,
1799
01:19:44,142 --> 01:19:47,733
your parents were young enough
to be watching Big Bird on PBS.
1800
01:19:47,858 --> 01:19:49,277
[laughter]
1801
01:19:50,989 --> 01:19:56,669
That five minutes
is about this right here.
1802
01:19:57,502 --> 01:20:00,593
Us, a team.
1803
01:20:01,679 --> 01:20:04,266
I came back here
to be on a team
1804
01:20:04,391 --> 01:20:06,814
because there ain't nothing
better than being on a team.
1805
01:20:06,939 --> 01:20:07,815
[group murmurs]
1806
01:20:07,940 --> 01:20:09,778
[Mike] I came back here
1807
01:20:09,903 --> 01:20:12,783
to be with you all before
I even knew who you all were.
1808
01:20:14,830 --> 01:20:16,709
I came back
to cheer for you, Jeremy,
1809
01:20:16,834 --> 01:20:19,882
when you make your 80th catch
of the season for a TD
1810
01:20:20,007 --> 01:20:21,760
which you have yet to do
but you will do
1811
01:20:21,885 --> 01:20:23,556
when you get back
out there tonight.
1812
01:20:23,681 --> 01:20:25,893
[gentle, hopeful music playing]
1813
01:20:26,018 --> 01:20:29,316
I came here to see you make
those 25 tackles, Fern-man.
1814
01:20:29,441 --> 01:20:31,069
-Huh?
-Yes, sir.
1815
01:20:33,659 --> 01:20:35,996
I came to look you
in the face, Kyle,
1816
01:20:36,121 --> 01:20:39,169
and wonder how a man
who gets sacked so often
1817
01:20:39,294 --> 01:20:40,589
can still look so pretty.
1818
01:20:40,714 --> 01:20:42,635
[laughter]
1819
01:20:45,140 --> 01:20:47,477
I even came back for you,
Stanton.
1820
01:20:48,355 --> 01:20:51,318
Because five, ten,
20 years from now,
1821
01:20:51,444 --> 01:20:54,157
you're gonna forget any beef
you and I had between us
1822
01:20:54,282 --> 01:20:58,208
but what you will remember
is that we fought side by side.
1823
01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:05,514
There's one thing
that I've learned
1824
01:21:06,684 --> 01:21:11,527
in my sometimes glorious,
sometimes miserable life,
1825
01:21:12,444 --> 01:21:14,031
and that's... [chokes up]
1826
01:21:14,156 --> 01:21:15,450
[inspirational music building]
1827
01:21:15,576 --> 01:21:17,955
...we're not defined
by our successes.
1828
01:21:19,877 --> 01:21:21,714
We're defined by our regrets.
1829
01:21:22,673 --> 01:21:24,009
And I've had a ton of them.
1830
01:21:24,970 --> 01:21:26,138
As a teammate,
1831
01:21:28,226 --> 01:21:29,144
as a husband,
1832
01:21:30,523 --> 01:21:31,692
as a dad.
1833
01:21:34,154 --> 01:21:35,407
Hell, you boys,
1834
01:21:37,035 --> 01:21:39,331
you're too young
to have any regrets yet,
1835
01:21:39,456 --> 01:21:41,126
ones that really matter anyway.
1836
01:21:43,674 --> 01:21:46,303
So don't let tonight
be that first regret.
1837
01:21:47,222 --> 01:21:49,226
Don't let tonight be the night
that you regret
1838
01:21:49,351 --> 01:21:51,354
for not being there
for your brothers.
1839
01:21:51,479 --> 01:21:52,733
[teammates murmur in agreement]
1840
01:21:52,858 --> 01:21:54,947
When I come back
in this locker room,
1841
01:21:55,072 --> 01:21:58,035
after the game,
I will be an empty shell,
1842
01:21:58,160 --> 01:22:00,248
because my very soul,
my spirit,
1843
01:22:00,373 --> 01:22:02,127
will be left on that field.
1844
01:22:03,296 --> 01:22:05,425
Now, forget about making
this a game
1845
01:22:05,551 --> 01:22:07,387
that we'll always remember.
1846
01:22:07,513 --> 01:22:10,686
Let's make this a game
they'll always remember.
1847
01:22:10,811 --> 01:22:12,355
[cheering and applause]
1848
01:22:12,480 --> 01:22:14,568
Let's make this game
their regret.
1849
01:22:14,693 --> 01:22:16,071
[cheering]
1850
01:22:16,196 --> 01:22:18,952
-Okay, let's go! Let's go!
-[cheering]
1851

Hey yo!
1852
01:22:23,336 --> 01:22:26,341
They're gonna know our name.
They're gonna feel our pain.
1853
01:22:26,466 --> 01:22:27,803
'Cause that's the name
of the game.
1854
01:22:27,928 --> 01:22:29,222
That's the price of fame.
1855
01:22:29,347 --> 01:22:31,434
We're here to make war,
not settle the score.
1856
01:22:31,604 --> 01:22:32,605
So we're gonna do it for Mike
1857
01:22:32,730 --> 01:22:33,899
and we're gonna do it tonight!
1858
01:22:34,024 --> 01:22:35,152

A hundred yards!

Now my being here
finally means something.

Nice of you to join us.

Thought maybe you'd
change your mind.
1907

Not a chance.

1962
01:26:41,268 --> 01:26:43,857
They've got a big decisionto make here.
