And vitamins!

[to the Tigers team]

This is gonna be the hardest thing you've ever done in your whole lives. But when it's over...

Don't get emotional...

When it's over...

You guys are gonna be champions!

Now let's get out there and kick some butt!

On three, 'let's have fun'

The Tigers
[all chant]

One, two, three, Let's Have Fun!

[to Phil, mocking]

'Let's have fun,' what's THAT?

[passing out DVDs]

These are instructional DVDs. Study them. Watch them. I only watched it once and already I learned this - it's called "Up and Over".

[he shows them this new kick, nearly wrecking the fireplace] [hears Barbara coming and passes the ball to Mark Avery]

Here, hold this.

Guys, I told you, no playing soccer in the house.

You did, you said it a lot.

Who did that?

[pointing to Mark]

He did.

The Tigers

HE DID!

Phil
[at practice the next day]

Look who's here! I'll give you a hint - Hall of Fame, Chicago Bears...

Sammy Sosa?

C'mon.

Phil

No, no. Football. Coached the 1986-

[correcting him]

'85.

Phil

Right, '85 Bears to a Super Bowl victory... it's Mike Ditka!

Do you know Sammy Sosa?

Hey, zip it, kid! I'm a coach that knows about winning! I'm gonna push you guys, like you've never been pushed before! Some of you are gonna wish I was dead!

Phil

It's true. I know it's a weird thought but it's true.

I eat quitters for breakfast and I spit out their bones!

Phil

Delicious!

This is gonna be the hardest thing you've ever done in your whole lives. But when it's over...

Phil

Don't get emotional...

When it's over...

Phil
[echoing him]

When it's over...

You guys are gonna be champions!

Phil

Champions!

Now let's get out there and kick some butt!

Phil

On three, 'let's have fun'

The Tigers
[all chant]

[to Phil, mocking]

"Let's have fun"? What's that?

Phil

I just made it up.

[passing out DVDs]

I only watched it for 5 minutes, I already learned this, it's called "Up and Over". [he shows them this new kick] You can learn things like, maybe back over here! Fakes left, fakes right, he shoots! [nearly wrecking the fireplace]

What is going on in there? [Phil hears Barbara coming and passes the ball to Mark Avery] Guys, I said no playing soccer in the house.

You did, you said it a lot.
