Annabelle
[examining the extensive bruising of Falco's upper arm and shoulder]

Oh, my God... oh, my God...

It looks worse than it feels.

Annabelle

Oh, my God... it looks like Hell.

Then it looks exactly like it feels.

I want you get used to setting up on the run. Move fast, think even faster. You'll live a lot longer.

You know what separates the winners from the losers, kid?

The score.

Getting back up on that horse after you've been kicked in the teeth. I've watched films of your game since the Sugar Bowl. You should've been carrying a clipboard that first year, not trying to carry the whole team. Your teammates leaned on you, and you crumbled. Is that how you wanna be remembered?

I don't wanna be remembered at all.

You're still young. If you do well, who knows what'll happen once the strike ends? Look, I'm not going to make any promises, Shane, but why not take a chance, huh? Rather than hang out here, scraping crap off the bottom of somebody else's toys.

John Madden

I love to see a fat guy score.

Pat Summerall

Why?

John Madden

Because first you get a fat guy spike, then you get the fat guy dance.

Hey Shane Falco. I lost a ton of money on that Sugar Bowl disaster of yours. What a bloody shambles that was. You could smell the stink all the way back in bloody Wales.

Nice meeting you too.

Hey, coach, can I ask you a question?

Yeah, go ahead, shoot.

Why me?

...I look at you, and I see two people: the man you are and the man you ought to be. Someday, those two will meet, and should make for one hell of a football player.

You, ah, wanna come on board for a beer?

Annabelle

Nothing personal, Shane, but I don't date football players.

I don't blame you. Not even quarterbacks?

Annabelle

Especially not quarterbacks. You guys are the biggest babies of all.

Walter Cochran

Going out in front of 80,000 people ain't bad, huh?

Heather

Is lap dancing a style?

Banes
[to Wilkinson after his arrival]

Well, let's go join the others, shall we? No need to stay here... out of screaming distance.

San Diego's Coach
[to a referee after Washington's cheerleaders distracted the San Diego offense]

The one girl slapped the other girl in the ass there Jimmy! You're killing me!

San Diego's Coach
[after Washington intercepts the pass on the next play]

Stop them from shaking their asses for two minutes!

Woman Reporter
(Running to catch up with McGinty heading to the locker room for halftime)

Coach, what will Washington need to get back into this game?

(pause)

You've got to have heart.

Woman Reporter

Can you elaborate?

(striking his chest with his roll of papers)

Miles and miles of heart.

Woman Reporter
(comes to a halt)

So with a word, Coach McGinty says Washington will need to have heart to get back into this ball game.

Eddie Martell

We have a game to win. Nobody can beat Dallas with these losers!

[enters locker room]

I can.

Martell

Hi Shane, how are ya, now get the HELL OUT OF MY LOCKER ROOM!

Coach?

What the hell took you so long?

Traffic. [players cheer him on]

Suit up!

Martell

What?! O'Niel will fire your ass!

It won't be the first time!

Martell

This is bullshit. I'm going to put an end to it right now. (heads for the locker room exit)

(Pulling his shirt off, spitting into his right hand, and faces Martell)

Come and get some then, you big fatty!

Martell
(Martell chuckles at Nigel in front of him but the grin disappears as the whole team moves to surround him.)

This doesn't change anything, Falco. I'm an All-Pro quarterback. I've got TWO Super Bowl rings! You'll never be more than a replacement player.

I can live with that.

[refers to Martell]

Will somebody please, please get this asshole out of here?

[As the crowd sings "Ole Ole Ole," Nigel Gruff has second thoughts about the goal kick]

I'm sorry.

What?

I'm sorry Shane, I can't kick it. I took 50,000 quid and pissed it all on the track.

What do you mean?

They're gonna take my pub away from me. It's all I've got, Shane!

Unnamed Forward

Come on, Shane!

Jumbo Fumiko
(The football falls right in Jumbo's hands)

Holy shit!

Andrea Jackson

Let's haul ass, round boy! Follow me! Follow me!
