In Virginia,
high school is a way of life.
Even more important than Christmas.
My father is a coach in Alexandria.
He worked too hard, my mother then left it,
but I stayed with the coach.
He needs me in the field.
Until 1971 in Alexandria,
there is never mixed race.
Then the school board forces us to unite.
They combine the school of white and black skin into one...
named T. C. Williams High School.
Killer! Killer!
In the summer a black was killed
by white shop owners,
and the whole city almost exploded in a wave of anger.
!! Well, my mind is goin 'through some changes !!
You've caused damage enough!
- This is my shop! - Back off.
= Blue on the left! Blue on the left! Left!
Come on, Kurt, don't let Ray drop you like that!
You are twice the size!
Aargh! What are they doing?
If they continue to play like that, we will lose!
I don't think it's up to that bad.
!! She had to run !!
Good, Gerry. I can see you have practiced.
Sorry!
Get into the truck.
Gerry, Alan, Ray,
If you still want to play with me again,
get into the truck now.
You have to be calm, come to my office now,
help me take care of items - my stuff.
Gerry, son, your inner voice is true,
but you have to know more
before you embarrass the coach like that.
Hell, why don't you just take it out are they all from the team?
I don't want to play with one of them.
Whoa.
I see it.
Who are you?
I'm Herman Boone. I am a new assistant coach.
Yes, from what is seen,
I think we need all the help currently available.
Why aren't you out there
with your friends, making a scene?
This is the time set for me to meet with Coach Yoast.
I have never broken my promise.
Yes, maybe you should rearrange the schedule.
Coach Boone, the school board has made a decision to make you my staff I don't rent you.
Yes, I came here to train at G.W.
I did not ask the school for a transfer.
I didn't ask to be made as your staff,
so I think the two of us are in a situation that
we don't want it.
But I guarantee this, Coach,
I came to win.
Win? Coach Yoast is already nominated
in the Virginia High School Hall of Fame.
Fifteen season wins.
I won a few titles while in North Carolina.
That's an "AA" ball.
Here in Virginia. We play "AAA."
Then this is an honor for me...
to learn... from the best.
!! Ooh, I bet you want to know how I knew !!
Will those people move?
No. It seems they will just enter.
How many of them all?
Only one.
Then they will defeat us.
Mommy, where are you going to bring my teddy doll?
Already. Come on, all of it. Ohh.
Where is everyone?
Nicky, yes.
Look there, come again some of them.
That's a doctor. Day, Negro from the school board.
What is he doing here?
The school board has decided Herman Boone the Negro
will be the head coach at T.C.
That's not fair! My father is the head coach!
This year will be the year of the Hall of Fame!
No one has tried it take your father's position in that Hall.
You can't come here and just take my father's job!
That's enough, Sheryl. Enough.
Sheryl!
Ow.
I...
It's okay, Bill. My feelings are the same.
All because of the instigators and the -races...
I feel like I got a hard slap.
The troublemakers at Berg are ready to
burning the city.
Burning the city.
Do you want us to join burning like Watts?
All head coaches in this system are white.
We must prove something to them.
This is the world we live in, God help us all.
I left North Carolina because I submitted
the job I occupied and gave me life.
Submitting it to a white coach which can't even tighten the spikes on the soccer shoes.
Now you ask me
do the same thing to this person?
I can't do it.
Herman?
People in Carolina say that you fought with Doctor King.
They say you're standing face to face with the Clan.
He says you're a racist.
That's right. I'm also a person who loves my family.
Coach Boone, black people never got
anything from this city is their property except humiliation and despair.
Excuse me, Doctor. Day.
Herman, you should look out.
So, you see, we need you, coach Boone.
Come on, meet them.
Coach Boone, I'm Charles Campbell.
This is my son, Julius.
He is capable of being the best defensive player across the country if you are willing to train it.
I have heard a lot about you.
You are like an answer for our prayers.
Wait a minute. I am not an answer to your prayers.
I am not a Savior, is not Jesus Christ,
Martin Luther King, or Easter rabbit.
I'm a soccer coach, that's all.
Only a soccer coach.
You are our coach.
You are our coach!
Coach Boone!
Boone! Boone! Boone!
What do you want?
What is Coach Yoast here?
We are busy...
Job interview as head coach.
Get eleven offers and surely there is no time for you.
Yes, please enter. Let's go to my office in the back.
Look, I even can't spell diplomacy,
and I am sorry for what happened,
but don't misunderstand me, I'm qualified
to become head coach this school.
Sure. You have been involved in, what,
Four or five programs for the past ten years?
In four or five championships.
This is not about me.
I'm worried about my children.
Yes, I won't cook then eat them.
The best player to play. Skin color is not a problem.
From the problems that appear that we face today,
I think everything is really about that.
Yeah, you're right.
We are in a situation that is difficult, Coach,
you, me, the whole city.
I think it will take a long time to get this done,
if you want to stay, works with staff,
become a defensive coordinator, assistant head coach.
Working as your subordinate?
If that's the way you see it.
Good evening, Coach.
An honor for me
to stay here for me train all of you.
I will take leave for a year...
No.
Then I will move to London
And take a job as head coach at Loudon High School.
- I think boycott T.C. Williams! - Tell them, Fred!
Our players don't play for 'Coach Coon!'
Coach, he took away your work.
I don't want to play for him.
I will make a petition, and I will not participate in this season.
The only place that you will sit in is behind that chair, Gerry.
Even so, I appreciate that.
Boycott T.C. Boycott school!
Stop it, Fred. You know none of these children
who can go to another area
only to play ball.
They are out of this,
they will lose their future.
Coach, I'm out too.
I don't want to play for a thief.
Don't do it.
Don't make this more difficult for me than what happened.
Coach, if you leave, I also leave.
Just want to play for you, Coach Yoast.
Don't go, Coach. We need you.
Coach Yoast! Coach Yoast! Coach Yoast!
We will be fine, Coach.
I have trained these children since they were your age.
I watched them grow right in front of me,
almost like my children myself.
Almost.
This is the time to ignore their
so that they take care of themselves themselves?
So, what are you going to do?
Let's play football!
Blacks, blacks, blacks!
Unh, bro, bro!
Yo, Petey, how many yards do you think
Can you get it this season?
You know, I'm not a ***, Big Blue,
but I think it's a little thousand.
But I don't want to have a big mouth.
Didn't I say the white children
won't play without fellow?
Yes, who needs them, honey?
From now on The Titans will be sourced from soul power, friend.
! He said soul power!
Shut up.
Lower your hand.
You smile.
Yes.
Yes, sir. Why are you smiling?
Because I love football. Football is fun.
Fun, sir. Correct, fun?
- Yes. - Are you sure?
I think--
Now you're thinking.
First you smile, then you think.
Do you think football is still fun?
Uh, yeah.
sir.
- Yes, no, sir. - Not?
It was fun.
Not now, right?
Not at this time.
It's no longer fun. Not at all.
Uh... no.
Determine your decision. Think because you can think.
Come on, thought. Is that fun?
- No, sir. - Not?
Not at all?
Zero, sir.
Okay, listen. I'm Coach Boone.
I'll say how 'fun'
This season for you.
We will enter the camp, Gettysburg College,
August 15, at 7:29 a.m.
If you report at 7:30,
You won't play football this season,
You will be a spectator.
You will wear a jacket, shirt and tie.
If you don't have one, buy a.
Not able to buy, borrow from your parents.
If you don't have parents,
look for a drunkard, exchange drinks with his property.
Because I guarantee that is not a homeless person on the streets which looks more ragged and silly from my current appearance.
This is not democracy.
This is a dictatorship.
I am the Law.
If you stay in the camp, you will be on the team.
If you survive.
Their absence, Coach.
Absent them.
I am Coach Hinds, is your deputy coach.
State your name and initial position starting from the right.
Petey Jones, running back.
The running back, brothers and sisters.
It's up to you, Petey.
Come here!
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Jerry Harris, Quarterback.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah, Rev.!
Rev.?
Just a nickname.
And what's your name?
Louie Lastik, Offensive Lineman.
Naval family, just moved here from Bayonne.
Someone mentioned football, so I ran here.
What's up, all of you?
With him and his friends playing here,
we will get nothing except being a reserve this season.
He didn't invite them. You all will play.
You've been annoying
our team's inaugural meeting
in a way that is completely not acceptable.
This is my team now.
No matter you agree or not.
I'm here, right? Let's talk about football.
Let's talk football.
I handle defense
As part of my team's strategy.
Now, I don't see the name of the assistant coach appears in newspapers as losers in matches.
I want to work with Coach Tyrell.
He has been with me for ten years.
I don't want to eject it out just like that.
You won't get me without him.
You tested my patience, Coach.
Alright. I will allow Coach Tyrell
to train special teams,
but I will keep watching it.
And you.
Good morning, good morning. Trainers, how are you?
Good morning.
Good day, right?
Just want to tell you what the attacking team did.
A book of bad tactics, right?
I play 6 Plays, Split Veer. Like Novocaine.
Just give time, always works.
See you on the bus.
Be patient, Bill. Your time will surely come.
Herman, we arrived here too.
We arrived here too.
How can I help you?
I'm Gerry Bertier,
the one and only native American in this team.
You want us all to play for you you replace the first half players,
with players from Hammond,
half the players survive, half a special team.
We don't need any from you for defense.
It's been determined.
Uh-huh. Don't need a single one from my people?
Who was your name, Jerry?
Gerry.
No, you said Jerry, like Lewis,
what made you become Dean Martin, right?
Ladies and gentlemen, I have an announcement.
There are Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin here,
they will join the camp with us this year.
Jerry tells a joke,
Dean sings and captivates women.
Let's give them a warm welcome.
Where are your friends, Gerry?
Your parents, are they here?
Where are they?
That's my mother.
Is that your mother?
Very sweet. How are you?
Look at him well.
Because once you ride on the bus,
You don't have a mother anymore.
All team members are your brothers,
and you also have a father.
You certainly know who your father is, right?
Gerry, if you want continue to join the team,
you have to answer when I ask who is your father.
Who is your father, Gerry?
Who is your father?
you.
Uh-huh. And whose team belongs to this?
Is this your team, or belongs to your father?
Your Own.
Mm-hmm. Enter the bus.
First use your jacket and get on the bus.
OK.
Uh, Dean?
Tighten your base, kid.
Alright, listen, I want everyone to get off the bus.
Come on. Follow me. All. Now.
Why do we have to get off the bus?
What did they do?
All right, everything gets off the bus.
Listen to me, I don't care are you black, green, blue, white, or orange,
I want all my players to be right next to this,
and all attacking players here.
Now.
Move! Move! Move! Move!
You and you, on the attacker's bus. Sit together.
You and you, on the bus, survive. Sit together.
Try to be comfortable,
because the person I pointed to to sit next to you is the same person who will share the room with you during this camp period.
! 'Cause, baby,...!
! No mountain is high enough!
! Ain't no valley low enough!
Blue, shut your mouth.
I don't want to see your smile,
and hear your pengamen show on this bus.
You too.
You're right, sir.
You, shut your mouth too.
!! When I die and they lay me to rest !!
This is my bed.
!! Gonna go to the place that's the best !!
!! When I lay me down to die !!
And this is the bed
!! Up to the spirit in the sky !!
!! Goin 'up to the spirit in the sky !!
I don't want to see that all the time for two weeks, friend.
Lower it.
!! When I die !!
You just close your eyes for two weeks, I don't care.
Why don't you just look at your wall and I see my wall?
I see everywhere I want to see,
and I don't want to see that all the time for two weeks.
Then use the best for your X-Ray, Superman,
vision and look through the wall, because I don't want to take it off.
Aah!
There is a fight!
Fights?
There is a fight!
Follow me!
Come on! Come on!
Alright, wait!
Let me go! Let me go!
Release him.
Let me go!
A group of people - strong people, huh?
You look like boys - fifth grade elementary school
after fighting.
You're angry. That is good.
You will need it, son.
You do aggression. That's even better.
You will need that too.
But even a two-year-old child can fight.
Football is about controlling emotions.
Switching aggression - aggression for team benefits
to achieve perfection!
Some coaches, they throw away their players
If they think he is not good enough.
When they think he's harming his team.
This is a public school program.
I will never, for a long time, throw away my player
who came for playing for me,
but when you wear that uniform,
Titan's uniform, you are as good as working hard.
We will be perfect...
in every aspect of the match.
You give passes, you run a mile.
You avoid blocking, you run a mile.
You guys failed to catch the ball,
and I will break my legs on your spine John Brown...
then you will run a mile.
Perfection!
Let's work.
Move! Move the feet!
Wake up, kid! Get up! Get up!
Wake up! Get up! Get up!
Raise your head!
Move your feet!
Everything we do is change.
We are changing.
We will change the way we run.
We will change our way of eating.
We will change the the way we block.
We will change the way we tackle.
We will change our way to win.
Enduring is our desire.
Strength and desire.
Defense! Come on!
Wake up. Come here. Let's run. Run.
Unh!
Keep running! Make legs - your feet come off!
Keep moving! Keep moving!
Keep the ball in your hand until you touch the boundary line.
Show me, kid. Show, 'Bama!
Show me, 'Bama!
Skip the ball like a starving person
wants Christmas meat.
Hut!
Drop it! Drop it!
What's wrong with you?
Why are you messing with my football?
My block method is bad.
How to block you has no connection
the way you hold the ball!
What is your block method can drop the ball,
or are you missing the ball?
I failed, sir.
Alright. How many feet in one mile?
How many feet are in one mile?
5,280 feet!
Take this ball, then run that far!
You want to kill me, Petey! You killed me!
What are you doing?
Lunch.
I can see you're having lunch.
But why did you eat lunch here?
Why don't you go there and have lunch with your friends?
I have no friends.
I am friends with anyone, Julius.
She's just a white friend.
Yeah, and I'm a thin black person.
Come on, Julius, he's just a blessed child in the beautiful family of God.
Come on, Blue, let me
Lord, we have come to Your presence today...
and begging you to soften Julius Campbell's heart.
Look at the traitor.
And, Rev? He should pray.
I will not protect it in matches.
Yeah, but, Ray, if you don't protect it
you won't play.
I definitely play.
I'll just wait for my chance.
I understand some tactics when we won last year.
Some game tricks, things that are possible
arouses a little imagination the children.
Game tricks?
I think if they don't enjoy
they will not get an number for you.
You worry about the problem defense.
Let me take care of the problem attack.
Alright.
Lastik!
Tell me something about one of your black team friends.
Yes sir!
I'm rooming with Blue, sir,
and I just realized that he was wearing underwear with leopard motifs,
newfangled bikini, sir!
OK, maybe someone who isn't rooming with you.
Sir, I have lunch with Rev.
I mean Jerry Harris, sir!
People call him Rev because he always prays,
and he never swear, sir!
And what will Rev do after high school?
I don't know.
Lecture maybe.
How about you? Are you going to college?
Oh, not with me, Coach.
I'm not a bookworm like Rev.
Do you think you have a future on Football?
Not so. I just realized if I had to go to school.
I might hit someone while there.
Alright, I like that.
Self-conscious men, I like that.
But if you don't go to college,
maybe it won't happen because you can't pass the test,
So I want you to bring the results of your exam
and at the end of each week we discuss together, OK?
This is only between you and me.
OK.
So what kind of music does Rev like?
Both of us like The Temptations.
Oh yeah?
! I know you want to leave me!
! But I refuse to let you go!
!! If I got to pray !!
!! Plead for your sympathy !!
! I don't mind!
! 'Cause you mean that much to me!
! Ain't too proud to beg!
OK, fine. Stop begging.
Anything else?
No volunteers?
Campbell?
Bertier?
No, huh?
Each of you will spend every day
with teammates with different races.
You will learn about him and his family,
What he likes and dislikes.
You will report it to me until you meet with all your teammates.
Until then, We will practice three times a day.
If you are still indifferent to each other,
We will practice four times a day.
Does anyone understand?
Let's look. What is your father's name?
I mean, you have a father, right?
I have a father, and his name is Eric.
And what is the job?
Wait, he has work right?
!! They're gonna put me in the movies !!
Huh? Yes! This one.
I don't need to ask, but I'll do it.
What do you think about this?
What is the problem of "cruel and unusual punishment"
means to you?
The remaining match is only two minutes left.
Your opponent is there, they're tired.
4th quarter. 4th Quarter.
4th quarter.
In my family no one ever attended college.
I'll guide you, Louie.
I'm white useless!
I will not get a value other than C +!
I'm stupid, useless,
You can never go to college!
Hurry up and leave the phone?
I also have to call my girlfriend.
Say now.
Oh, oh, don't now.
Hey, what's this, wild kingdom?
Shut up all of you!
Dating style gorrilla mountain?
Gerry, say that, or I won't hang up the phone.
Say now.
I love you, baby.
Ha ha ha! "I love you dear!"
Left!
Come on!
Pay attention! Pay attention!
Set! Hut!
Pursue him! Chase him! Chase him!
What are you doing?
44 Stack! You must know each other's assignments!
Campbell, you're selfish, you want to show off.
Drop your opponent.
Don't appoint me like that.
What, do you think I'm stupid?
Listen, I'm the captain of the team,
and I don't want you to be arrogant in front of me We're all here for playing Football.
Let's play Football.
Doc?
I understand.
You come here not to practice!
Because of the win there is a price!
You are like people - fools here!
Who is a coward? Coward won't block.
Cowards don't do tackles.
Cowards won't run after the collision.
Coach, we need a drink break.
We've been here all day.
What did you say?
I said we needed a rest.
You need a drink break.
Water is only for cowards. Water makes you weak.
Water is for washing blood from your uniform,
and there is no blood in your uniform.
Children, you must be imagining!
We will still do "Up Downs"
until Blue is no longer tired and thirsty.
Coach!
There are clear limits between tough and crazy,
and you're not clear between that.
All right, take the water.
I took it.
Hey, wait for your turn, kid.
Who are you calling kid, weak?
Yeah!
Stop it, shit!
Come on, you guys are like sissy!
Stop it!
Okay, listen. I'm Gerry, you're Julius.
Let's get to know each other
and finish it all, huh?
- Get to know each other? - Yeah.
Whatever I say to you,
You don't know anything about me.
Listen, I don't want anymore do this three times a day.
What I'm going to say, You really don't want to hear.
Because people like you don't uphold honesty.
Honesty? Do you want honesty?
All right, honest, I think you're nothing.
It's nothing, but is only a person who wastes
God's gifted talent.
You don't want to listen to other people, man.
Even on Doc or Boone!
Shiver always tries every time.
You let them pass!
Push them! Drag them! Do something!
You can't get past anyone in the league,
and every time you do it, you leave your teammate
waiting to dry. I'm one of them!
Why do I have to care about you?
Or who is there?
You want to talk about wasting, are you the captain right?
Right.
- The captain must be the leader right? - Right.
Do you understand your assignment? Have you done your job?
I've done my job.
Then why don't you tell your white friends
so that the block for the Rev is better? Because they don't block
he's well, and you know that!
Nobody did it well! Including you!
I have to fight for the team?
Which team ?!
No. No, what I will do is,
I will look after myself,
and I'll do it like I used to do.
Do you know, man?
That is the worst I've ever heard.
The attitude reflects the leadership of the Captain.
Come on, come on, Come on, come on!
Wake up sir, This is late.
It's three o'clock in the morning.
OK, listen.
You will follow Doc, me, and the other coaches,
we will be a little running through the forest.
If you get lost on the road,
Don't complain Return to camp.
It's just that you leave your taste at home.
Have a question?
Coach, High School Football Team.
We are not Navy.
Come on.
!! Tell me, where have you been !!
!! My blue-eyed son? !!
!! Where have you been !!
!! My darlin 'young one? !!
!! I've stumbled up on the side !!
!! Of 12 misty mountains !!
!! I've walked and I've crawled !!
!! Over 6 broken ways!
!! But it's hard !!
!! It's hard !!
Oh, no, no.
Come on. You can't rest.
!! Oh, it's hard, girl !!
!! It's a hard rain !!
!! A-gonna fall !!
Does anyone know what this place is?
This is Gettysburg.
This is where the Gettysburg war took place.
50,000 people die here,
fighting like
we do ' each...
today.
This green field
it was red first.
Bathed in blood from young men.
Smoke...
and hot lead showering their bodies.
Listen to their spirits, bro.
"I killed my brother with hatred in my heart."
"Hatred destroys my family."
Did you hear...
and take lessons from these dead people.
If we don't unite...
now, at this place of death...
then we too, will be destroyed.
Just like them.
I don't care if you like each other or not,
but you will respect each other _ one another and maybe...
I don't know, maybe we will...
learn to play this game worthy of men.
Hut!
This is it!
Alright.
We will be here overnight, until we resolve this problem.
Come on.
Come on, team, stand up!
Look at the ball, Rev.
Come on, everybody.
Do it right!
Ready!
Set!
Whoo!
Check Blue!
That's it. Whoo!
Come on! Hut!
Catch him! Catch him! Catch him!
What's that, Ray?
Whatever it is, That's not blocking!
Really, Gerry.
Do you want to take a break? I'll give you a break!
Wait a minute, wait, wait.
Let them finish this.
If we can give it to the Rev once, just once,
I swear, I will hit you very hard,
when you come,
ooh, boy, you will need a new haircut.
Do you understand? Uhh!
Ha ha ha ha!
Let's play, friends!
Place the ball. Let's do it again.
Get ready!
Alright.
Muskrat!
Set! Hut!
Get away from me!
Hoo hoo!
Are you okay, big Petey?
Are you okay?
You really stopped it, Campbell.
Yeah, I like a little bump, Petey!
This is left back!
- tough defender! - left back!
- tough defender! - Left back!
tough defender!
Left back!
- tough defender! - left back!
tough defender!
- Aah! - Aah!
What can we win?
Survive!
- What can we win? - Survive!
!! When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest !!
Hey, friends.
Look at this handsome guy.
Gerry, take care of your mouth and return to the field.
Coach Boone, I'm Colonel Bass.
I just moved here
from Huntington Beach, California.
This is my son Ronnie, and he's a quarterback.
How are you doing, Ronnie? He is Coach Yoast.
Nice to meet you.
We already have quarterback, Colonel,
but if, this child is useless,
You might see Wilson or Hamilton.
Actually I've met Coach Taber.
He doesn't allow black people to play on his team.
What I saw,
If they can fight together,
they can also play Football together.
Now he's a pretty good runner.
!! Spill the wine and take that pearl !!
Yeah, handsome kid, huh?
I think we can find a position for your child.
Mm-hmm.
With some requirements.
Hey, handsome.
! handsome!
Handsome.
Hey, man, caress that '
won't make your hair
grow faster. Do you know that, huh?
! handsome, handsome, handsome!
Handsome, huh?
Handsome.
Yeah. Do you like it, huh?
It's okay. I like.
Ooh!
Come on.
Don't let me wait, bro. Come on
Hey, he has a little "soul" power.
Look at this man.
He called me "bro"!
Hey, but, hey,
I like it more long hair, bro.
Reminds me of on mama Bertier.
Ohh!
What? What?
How do you know like what is Bertier's mama?
Brother, don't you know me and my mom Bertier
went to city last night, bro?
What did you say
Wait, Wait. Listen, now, Blue.
Why are you talking about Bertier's mama like that?
Look, now, you make me angry.
Like I can't invite your mother
to the prom party again.
What are you laughing at, Jerry Buck?
Tell your mother
to shave the old foot, bro.
And, Julius, when he finished,
maybe your mother can borrow razor blades
and shaving the back is bad.
Wow, wow, wow, wait, wait, wait.
You're angry because he looks like a female wolf.
Hey, hey. Lastik, dude, why are you?
Dude, I just carried your mother,
and the weight is twice my weight.
That's not funny.
That's it - It's a joke of mothers.
! Listen, baby!
! Ain't no mountain high!
! Ain't no valley low!
! Ain't no river wide enough, baby!

Yes sir.
Do you want this milk, Bertier?
Yeah, I want, man.
You can take it.
Hey, can you slide a little, Gerry?
Hey, Ray, this is the defender's table.

Hi, Petey.

Hey, Sunshine.
This is not because I care or anything,
but being mul's roommate, uh...
You just made doing to Bertier, right?
You... you're just kidding right?
You don't really, uh...
What do you mean, Petey?
That doesn't matter to me?
You know, if, if...
I just want to know, do you understand? Uh...
If it's not a problem, why is it bigger?
I have to know.
What do you know?
Do you know what I want to know? No kidding!
Looks Coach makes Petey
in the sun, bro.
Coach.
Hey, honey. Sit down.
Want my dessert.
Coach Boone?
You work well here.
You train a camp that is hard for me to see.
I'm happy to hear praise from a five year old child.
I am 9 1/2, Thank you very much.
Why don't you give this child

I tried it. He loves Football.

! Good-bye!
I hear you!
In front of there! In front of there!
All schools!

There must be something they celebrate.

Hi, ma'am!
Oh, welcome home.
Daddy. Ah, ha ha.
Mmm-ah! How are you darling?
Oh, I miss you.
Hey, man. We are cool, right?
Yeah, we are cool.
Mistress. Boone, nice to meet you.
Same - same.
Yeah, this, uh, the little Karen.
This is Nicky. Nicky, he is Sheryl.
Why are you dressing so silly?
Ow!
See who is talking.
Ow.
Yes, we just got to know each other, right?
We don't want you!
Get out!
We don't want them here!
!! Time has come today !!
!! Young hearts can go their way !!
!! Can't put it off another day !!
What did you do to my school, kid ??
It's all messed up, man.
Yeah, something serious has happened they closed the school,
and we lost this season.
That's right - really messed up here.
But there are many beautiful women here.
Hey.
Look at them, Gerry.
They hate us.
Well. Only a bad day. The situation will definitely improve.
No, Gerry. They will always hate us.
We also don't need you, hippie boy.
What did you hear?
Hey, man.
Hey, Julius.
It's really crazy out here, man.
Yeah, well, what are you hoping for?
I don't know. I don't expect to happen like this.
Ah, sorry. Julius, this is Emma.
!! Now the time has come !!
!! Time !!
The camp is over, huh?
Back to reality, Bertier.
Is this why they combine us?
We are better off if we stay in our place.
!! Time !!
Mmm.
Yeah, this is where I protect.
All these hatreds and riots continue to surround us but this... all of this is always true.
Struggle.
Stay alive.
Victory and defeat.
This is all just a game, Doc, but...
I love it.
Coach, I'm afraid I've involved you in a situation where we can't win.
I just realized something was unthinkable
when we finish the camp.
And after you realize it,
I understand that from the start this problem arose
Problem? What is the problem?
Losing in the match...
they will fire you
and return this work to Yoast.
One match, that's all?
Mm-hmm.
What about my family?
We just moved here.
They think we want to pack and move again?
What about my children?
A... I don't know what to say, I...
Sorry, Coach.
! Pump, pump, pump it up !!
! Pump that spirit Titan up !!
Look at them.
They came here to watch the match,
and they still don't want us to be part of it.
! Give us more!
! Do your stuff, let's go !!
All right, all ready.
Get ready, get ready. Come on, come on, come on.
Listen.
Tonight I don't want to talk about...
win or lose.
All of you are winners,
because you can not kill each other while in camp.
Tonight, we face Hayfield.
Like all other schools in this area,
they are all white.
They don't need to worry about race problems.
Whereas we have to.
But we are better with it all.
Let me say something. Don't leave it...
whatever...
deters us.
Nothing can scatter us.
Ancient Greek myths,
giants are even greater than the gods.
They control the universe with absolute power.
Yes, tonight, the soccer field is out there,
it's your universe.
Let's master it like giants!
Understand!
So, Titans defenders
who will advance first
against Hayfield Hawks,
led by quarterback Daniel Cullum
on Hawks 32 Yardline.
Ohh!
Move fast,
all of you!
I mean, come on!
Uhh! Ooh!
Mama.
Hmm?
Are all white girls that crazy?
What?
You can play better than that - uhh!
Yeah!
Gathering. Gathering, friends.
Bosley? Where is Alan?
Alan, you have to stick tight to your opponent!
They will continue to print numbers if you don't--
He's too fast, Gerry. I can't stick to it.
Fast, fast!
22! Hut!
Hawks, Touchdown!
Strengthen defense, Yoast.
You worry about the problem the attack.
Hey, they print numbers again, I'll take over.
Get ready!
That's it!
Watch him! Watch him!
Set!
Hut! Hut!
Petey, go there! What are you doing, kid?
You missed blocking for one mile.
You didn't even make the ball fall this time.
There is no reason! There is no reason!
Do you want to play football or not?
Do you want to play football
Just go back to your seat, kid!
Herb, replace me.
Alright.
Petey! You are okay?
I was a starter two years in a row at G.W.
All these invocations,
that... it actually made me feel worse.
I can't play for that person.
Play as lineback for me.
Number 23 is a big problem. I want you to go there,
I want you to look after him for me.
- Do you want me to come in now? - Yeah.
I can't! A... me...
I never trained for defense. I can not.
No problem. Just go there.
I want you to take care of number 23. Only that.
We will discuss this later
after we get rid of it.
Do you think Yoast deliberately let them win for a reason?
What?
Is that right?
Oh, come on, Herman.
OK, let's move.
What did Petey do?
Like Yoast tried it for defense.
He tried to get Alan out. Yoast!
Herman, Herman, Herman.
Wait. Let's see what will happen.
There might be nothing.
Everything is OK. You're OK. You're OK. OK
Don't make my child come out!
He looks like is tired, sir. Bosley.
You don't interfere, kid!
He looks tired, That's all I want to say!
Yoast!
Set! 22! Hut hut!
- Yeah! - Ha!
Down!
!! Ah, yeah !!
Hut! Hut, hut!
!! Doo doo doot doot doot !!
!! Higher !!
!! Doo doo doot !!
!! Doo doo doot doot doot !!
!! La oohhoo !!
Come on, defender!
!! Drummer, keep it going !!
Set!
Hut!
!! Right on time !!
!! Blow my mind !!
!! Higher !!
!! Superstar !!
Yeah! Uhh!
Touchdown! Titans... win!
Yeah!
Titans here, brothers and sisters, and we won't go anywhere.
Yo, are you going to continue to noisy like this?
Virginia can hear you, baby.
I thought they heard you delirious, man.
First, hands. Second, who wins?
my father
Don't worry. Not your fault.
They - they really like boasting
and that's all they can do.
Wait, wait, wait. "They"?
Yeah. They?
I heard you said "them."
Yeah, they are. They. They are there.
But you mean "they "-- you talk about Pete--
you are yourself, while they are them.
Gerry.
Hey, Gerry. Come here, friend.
We're going to the hill, Gerry.
Everyone will be there.
Why don't you come with us?
We... you know.
What are you planning, Gerry?
Listen, when things don't are expected to come,
You have to accept it and do it.
I'm not walking in the direction that is the same as you, Gerry.
Come with us.
Look, stay true to what you believe is good, but...
this time you have mixed up your priority.
Did you come or not?
!! The way you stole my heart !!
!! You know, you could have been a cool crook !!
!! And, baby, you're so smart !!
!! You know, you could have been a schoolbook !!
Petey Jones.
Enter.
No.
What's wrong? Look at me, man. We party. Come on
Look, look here, man, come on.
This is Virginia. Understand?
They have a problem with, you know...
They don't want us here.
Oh, that's just history, man. Come with me. Come on
Woman :: !! So lonely !!
!! Without you !!
!! But our love !!
Tonight we are full, children.
What? There are still many empty tables there, man.
What do you mean?
Yes, this bar is mine.
I have the right to reject anyone I want.
Yeah, including you too, hippie boy.
Now, all of you want to eat something
just take these kids out
and pick up your food from the kitchen floor.
Did I say that?
Yo, come on, Petey, man!
Petey, I don't know, friend.
I told you that! What do you mean you don't know?
Do you think I'm playing with you?
He doesn't know, Petey.
Blue, he really doesn't want to know.
You can only talk nonsense
You should be able to defend it earlier.
Let's go, buddy.
Try to calm down a little? Quiet!
Come on, Rev.
Come on, buddy.
What's wrong?
She's weird tonight, man.
Petey.
Don't try - try talking to him, man.
He's acting crazy and stuffing all night.
It doesn't even make sense.
Petey.
He knew the man was from from out of town.
Five times - five times, players this week.
He is not an arbitrary person, Yoast.
The child is a soccer player. He is a star.
And he sells himself for you.
Indeed this is what you do, - black people.
That's enough.
That's my problem.
Listen.
Go home to your house, Fred,
before you do something you will regret later.
Yeah, well...
We won't meet often with it again, right?
I will.
He became an assembly in the church with me.
Okay, listen, about Petey...
no need to thank, Coach.
Thank you?
You challenge my authority in front of all team members, Coach.
Do you think you've given these children help
side with them when I'm angry with them protect them from the big bad Boone.
You only made me lose my authority.
Some of the children can't face properly
criticisms raised by the public.
I tell them what they should know but I don't embarrass them in front of the whole team.
Who among them are you talking about?
Which child do you mean?
I mean Bertier. You don't seem to spoil it.
See when on Sunshine.
I don't see you holding the hand , bringing it to your side.
Which child are you talking about?
I might be a cruel person,
but I am a cruel person
to everyone in the field out there.
This world doesn't care at all
how sensitive are these children
especially those who are black.
You didn't help them at all
by pampering them.
You paralyzed them.
You paralyzed them from the reality of life.
Hey.
Gerry, What are you doing?
I'll go to Berg.
Berg?
Yep.
What will you do in Berg?
I want to play basketball with Julius.
Then we will come back here for dinner.
Gerry, if only your father was still alive--
Ma, will you--
Please give him a chance. Try to get to know him.
Please hear him two seconds.
I don't want to know him.
You went to church with your mother.
Right, right, right!
She's mine!
Hut!
You messed up your job!
I protect it for you. Don't come to me.
Yo, calm down. Calm down.
Where is your place?
On which planet is your place this time?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, everything is fine, man.
I knew you was going to stand me up.
I guessed you must can't come
to Berg, it won't work.
I know you like big mouth,
but now you make we look bad
in the field.
Don't talk to me, man.
You have nothing to talk about with me.
Why is it moody, Sunshine?
I can't do the throw, Petey.
You also will never play,
unless we lead with 50 numbers.
And seeing that we will never ever
leads with 50 numbers,
You should just sit here, relax
and enjoy this bench.
How are you doing?
I didn't register to play like this, friend.
Our opponents today do not have hearts.
We play like this against Groveton,
and we will lose.
OK, attacker. Attackers, come on.
Hut!
Touchdown, Titans!
Titans, win!
How are you, Coach?
Good morning.
Where is your father?
He's in his office.
Nicky, are you okay?
Yes, father.
OK.
What are you doing?
Practice a few shots.
Want to play?
I just tidied my nails.
How are you? Tyrell.
Coach if you don't need me...
I will--
I'll wait behind.
Alright, Herb.
Coach Boone, what makes me owe this surprise?
Please sit down.
I will go straight to the problem.
We will not succeed in other matches
like what happened last Friday.
So I spoke to Mr. Vernon math teacher,
ask him to watch the recording Groveton's team match,
we will face next week.
I asked him to analyze the game for me.
Each coach has his / her own tendency.
All except Ed Henry.
Our one and only chance seeing Ed Henry
is in the championship between states.
Mm-hmm.
Yes, my God, this...
This is a big thing Every Quarter player will be injured,
every time they go down in matches. I mean--
Do you like it, huh?
We will play very to survive this.
I think so too.
I brought Nicky with me.
He asks me about Sheryl.
I'm getting ready to deliver it
to the home of some of his friends.
Whenever you want to take it to our home,
we will be very happy to welcome you.
Oh, he is very adorable.
She's in my class in this third semester,
Why did you see the old Sunshine ?
I'm the one who dominated in the field.
He doesn't play at all one minute throughout the year.
Who cares about the field?
Yes, I don't want to be someone that makes you broken hearted,
but Sunshine is from California.
Yeah. A ship California dream.
No.
Sunshine is from California.
She's California Do you talk to my girls?
I don't see any farm animals around here,
so I don't know what you mean.
Ohh.
There is a fight!
Friends, stop it!
Let me go. Let me go.
Hey!
Do you want to?
Hey, hey, stop it.
Release
Get rid of your hand from me!
Hey, let me go!
Come here for you.
Aah!
Petey, bring these girls out.
Get out of here!
Uncle Tom is a traitor!
Uncle Tom!
Don't call me Uncle Tom.
All of you should go from to me.
There! Go!
Looks like you're new from the zoo and meet new friends, Bertier.
Oh, the fat, smart guy, huh?
!! Ah!!
!! Ahah !!
!! Ah!!
!! Ahah !!
Marie asks about Sheryl.
He wants to know what Sheryl can stop by and stay at home.
I told you to ask you first, what did he allow.
Yeah.
She's at home Boones tonight.
I'll just stop by
when I want to go home and all pick him up.
In Boones's house, huh?
Yeah.
Is that so huh?
Yeah, you haven't changed one bit.
You always try to please everyone,
be a good person.
Sooner or later, someone has to choose the side.
For me, I'm not going to spend the season with such pride - Hey.
I invited you here.
I want you to be with me,
but you have to do what you have to do.
That's all you want to say to me
after what we went through together?
Do what you have to do?
Hey, Herb...
fuck you.
The transition starts to improve.
I admit that.
But you are still weak on the left side.
We are not weak on the left side.
We have to work harder on the left side, that's all.
- That doesn't matter. - What is the problem?
You think that's the problem, but that's not it. Your pass is legible.
Not that-- After all, it's running.
That's not passing. The game is running.
Alright you two, stop it.
Sheryl, don't you want to play with Nicky?
I hate playing with dolls.
I don't play. I'm dressing up.
Yeah, why aren't you dressing?
You don't want to dress up together
He, "Coach Coon!"
Take refuge. Take refuge.
Mommy!
Where is the Coach, man?
What does he want with us now?
It's not the coach who held the meeting tonight.
We call you.
We're out of here.
Do you all want to leave your teammates?
He said there was something to talk about.
You all have to listen.
Back, back.
Where are you going? Back.
Coach Boone has brought us so far,
but he won't be there with us for as long as he is, man.
Why is that? We won several matches.
And you are stupid if you think it changes everything?
Nothing has changed, bro.
And what do you know?
We're not what you are either.
Yeah, we're together in training, it's fun.
Then we come back here,
and the world tells us
that they don't want we live together.
We are different it's not like before.
And all of you think this has finished with our victory?
Dude, we haven't won anything yet I haven't won anything yet.
Rev, what you always say
me when I'm bored
from my efforts to increase my values and as such?
! Even youths!
! Grow tired and weary!
! Even young men stumble and fall!
! But those who trust in the Lord!
! Will renew their strength!
Say amen.
Amen. That's what I said.
Amen - amen, right?
That's right, Rev.
!! They will soar !!
!! On wings like eagles !!
! Oh, like eagles, y'all!
! Like eagles, y'all!
! They will walk!
! And not grow faint!
Yeah. Can I hear amen?
Yeah!
Yeah.
We fought Groveton on Friday night.
Will you play like you have no compassion?
Don't have!
Do you want to win?
Yeah!
Do you want to win?
Yeah!
Gathering!
Yeah!
As I said,
we will not be able to be intimidated.
We will play Football.
Hatred, Violence will not intimidate us.
Do you need
security forces, Coach?
Look, I don't need Security forces John Brown.
And you can say to anyone who throws this brick to my window.
They can come to me at any time.
I will be home.
I thought this was when you stopped
make everyone look bad and learn a little humility.
Humility, huh?
You know, if you can close your mouth and if you don't too boast
I understand. So you blame me.
For what happened last night?
No. I'm talking about giving a good example
for our students and for our environment.
I don't scratch my head if it's not itchy,
and I don't dance if I don't hear music.
I will not be intimidated. It's been like that from a long time ago.
If you want to bring your pride
to the grave, that's your problem,
And when your mistake hurts my little girl,
That's my problem.
My mistake?
You think it exists relationship with my fault what happened last night?
I'm sorry about what happened to your child,
I'm really sorry,
but maybe you can be a little sympathetic
what my child experienced.
Hmm?
Welcome to my life, Yoast.
Shh, shh!
What happened?
Coach.
Uh, we want you to know
we will warm up
a little different tonight.
This is the first real test this season

I want Ray out of the team, Coach.
You know my policy, Gerry.
Yes, indeed,
and I appreciate it.
I know Ray foiled the block for a reason.
Sometimes you really have to throw someone out.
Hmm.
Yes, you are the captain.
You made a decision
but you have to defend your decision.
We will remember this for a long time.
Hey, friends, wait.
I want to ride with you.
Ray?
Oh, no, don't say anything.
You're out.
What?
I won't let you play for this team again.
Oh, yeah, Jerry Lewis?
Will go and say "Coach Coon"
What should be done as already - already?
But, it's true.
She's your father now, right?
Boone doesn't throw anyone away.
Remember, Gerry?
I threw you away Ray.
You're willing to throw away just like that
our friendship for their sake?
You can save that.

We are here tonight respect for people
who have taught our children
leadership in and outside the field
and also high moral standards.
Ladies and gentlemen, ladies I introduced the 1971 Hall of Fame nominations.
Come on, Daddy.
Whoo!
When we play Jefferson,
we are left behind 4 with only 10 seconds left.
So we immediately secure starting from the weak side...
Wow.
Great season for Titans, Trainers.
It's a shame it must end.
Oh, we still have it, Lyle.
Taber children are pretty good,
but in my opinion we can deal with them in regional matches.
Yes, we don't think so.
Leave this to us, Bill.
Boone comes out, and you head coach returns.
And all roads are open for the Hall of Fame.
Coach Taber?
What do you think the Titans team, Coach?
Do you think you have a chance against their defense children from T.C.
Ton, Billy, Ray, Come here.
Children. They're all my specialist all-American tackle.
Bull - a bull who can't do anything else
besides dropping their opponents.
Is it true You don't want to exchange recordings
with Coach Boone?
I don't want to do anything that can help the monkey.
Yes...
What will we do about this?
We will get ready for Saturday.
See you in the field.
Hut!
Hey, sir. Official.
sir. Official, can you talk for a while with you?
Back, Coach, if you keep going to play here.
Hut!
I have to stay on 78 White.
Are you trying to cheat on my children?
Fifteen more yards.

Let them play! Let these children play!
Basic cheating!
Coach, come on.
Cheating!
Coach.
Come on, come on, come on, come on!

Uhh!
Are you blind?
That's not guarding.
Oh, come on, that was terrible.
Titus!
Give him a lesson!
I know what you mean, Titus.
What are you talking about, Bill?
You made this game fair,
or I'll talk to the newspapers.
I don't care if I fall with you,
but before God, I swear I will send
all of you are in prison.
Just dig your own grave.
OK.
Defense! Come here!
OK, Petey, you don't go to the strong side.
Coach, they always try makes me trapped in violation.
Am I asking for your reason?
You want to act like a star,
You give me the best game stars,
Do you hear me?
Just forget him!
Alan, you're in!
Come on!
Alright, now,
I don't want them to get one more yard
you guys are tricked all night!
When they pass the boundary line,
I want all of you to come out.

the night they fought the Titans.
No doubt!
Set!

Looks like you're not a person
those who like to mix up priority, eh?
Emma...
I think I need longer
from what you will like.
But, um...
I just want you to know that I'm trying.
Goodbye, Gerry.
Emma?
Can you promise me something?
Later you will stand up for us when we faced Marshall to fight for the title?
!! Just yesterday morning '!!
I know how much this means to you.
I will not lie.
I really want the Of Fame Hall.
Only a little jealousy of an old man.
As old as Cain and Abel.
Do you know something?
I also want it.
But there is always the following year or the following year again.
As long as it can make people
it becomes wiser.
Don't want that right now.
A white group.
!! That I thought would never end !!
!! I've seen lonely times !!
Let's squander them in the inter-state championship, Coach.
Daddy!
Daddy! You go home!
My girls! Mmm-ah!
Give me a kiss. Mmm-ah!
Congratulations, Herman.
Alright. Mmm.
What did I say, dear, huh?
Yeah, we can't go too far Have fun.
We still have to face Ed Henry and Marshall.
We already have
You've worked really well, Coach Boone!
Congratulations!
!! My body's achin '!!
!! And my time is at hand !!
!! I won't make it any other way !!
Yes, I will be John Brown.
We have tidied up the kitchen, Father,
so you can immediately go to work.
Really?
Yes, I have news for you.
I won't work tonight.
Tonight, we will celebrate this.
We will make these people know
who will win in the inter-state championship.
- Really? - Right!
- Really ?! - Right!
Everything!
We will win in the state later!
!! But I always thought that I'd see you again !!
We will win in later countries!
!! Oh, I've seen fire, and I've seen rain !!
!! I've seen sunny days !!
!! That I thought would never end !!
!! I've seen lonely times !!
!! When I could not find a friend !!
!! But I always thought that I'd see you !!
Hey, Gerry! You are the person!
No, you! No, you, you!
You! Yeah!
!! Thought I'd see you one more time again !!
Oh, no! Gerry! You are okay?
How are you doing, kid?
Is he okay? She is fine?
He, uh...
How is the situation?
Not good. Not good.
How is the situation?
How bad is the situation?
He is paralyzed from the waist down.
Don't say that to me. Don't say that to me.
Sorry, madam. Bertier.
I'm sorry. Forgive me.
He doesn't want to meet anyone except you, Julius.
Yes ma'am
Strengthen yourself.
Yes ma'am
The tears will not make my child walk again.
Only whites are allowed here.
Alice, are you blind?
Don't you see all this family uniformity?
That's my brother.
Alright.
Oh, friend.
Yes, if you think I'm messed up,
You have to see Camaroku.
Dude, I'm really sorry, friend.
I should be there with you.
What are you talking about?
You should be on the bed next to me.
You can't be hurt like this.
You... you are Superman.
I'm worried about you, Julius.
I only see what I've feared.
And now I realize I've been hating my own brother.
Even so, I tell you.
Um, now it's all over...
you and I will move
to the same environment.
OK? And, um...
and we grow old and we get fat.
And there won't be any more black-and-white problems
among us.
Left side.
Strong side.
Good morning.
Uh, the Marshall movie.
Yes, that's good.
We must be very sharp in defense and attack
on our football.
We should give these children
some extra training this week
make sure they stay focused.
There will be a press conference today at 12 noon.
Press conference?
Listen, what we do between us means something
but we won't parade
talking about football at the moment.
Wait a minute. I don't talk about parading.
I mean we have to get out
shows a strong face, that stays united.
Now, I have hurt...
It's like you Yoast,
but this season isn't over yet.
I, we won't get so far
only to be destroyed and lost like this.
Everything isn't always about winning or losing.
I am a winner.
I will definitely win.
Is this still about football?
Or is this just about you?
Coach Boone...
Uh, Coach, You lost Bertier...
Is your defense in trouble?
I can't replace a Gerry Bertier...
as a player or a human.
I don't know, Mama.
Maybe Yoast is right.
Maybe I'm too hard force them.
Gerry had an accident.
Sometimes life is hard.
Not for any reason.
Do you think I've been blinded by my ambition?
Mm Whatever that ambition is,
doing what you did here...
this world can get more than that, Herman.
Hmm.
Hey, Coach.
How are you?
Is this for me?
I want you to be my eyes out there, ok?
If one of them types
tell me.
You will know.
How are you doing, Gerry?
I'm fine, Coach.
I just talked to these kids about Marshall,
trying to make them
You don't have to talk about football right now.
I think it's the right time for to look at
and to pray.
Coach...
I'm hurt.
I'm not dead.
No, of course not.
You know, I've, uh, read
about activities that can be done
people - have a wheelchair and so on.
There is an Olympics.
This is the ancestor
inter-state football championships.
"AAA" Virginia.
There's nothing better.
We have Coach Titans, Herman Boone,
vs. Ed Henry, the legend with more than 250 wins in the last 30 years.
Amen.
Come on!
Lastik, what's wrong?
I was chosen.
Yes, um, I'm happy to hear it, kid,
but I'm married.
I get an average of C Plus, Coach.
I'm going to college.
Alright, fantastic.
Coach? Trainer?
I just want to say, I'm sorry.
You left your team when they really needed you, Petey.
"Sorry" will not be able to redeem it.
Yeah, I know, but...
hear, I want to play for you.
I want to play in this championship.
You can play for me next year.
Sit on the bench.
Show me you can support your teammates.
You will start again later as a senior.
Entering the current stadium
is Jean Bertier. She is the mother of
Gerry Bertier, the all-American linebacker.
And the Titans fans
really gave a warm welcome to him.
Gerry! Gerry! Gerry!
And here they are, the Titans,
enter the stadium
in a way that has become the hallmark of their unique ! We feel, hoo, hah, real good!
! Hoo, hah, we feel!
! Hoo, hah, real good!
! Hoo, hah, we feel!
! Hoo, hah, real good!
! Hoo, hah, we feel!
! Hoo, hah, real good!
! Hoo, hah, we feel!
! Hoo, hah, real good!
Julius Campbell?
Hi, I'm Emma Hoyt.
Oh. Oh, I think we've never met, huh?
Uh, excuse me, young girl. You can't be here now.
You have to go back to your seat.
Yes, now we have met.
Yeah. Nice to meet you.
Good luck, Julius.
Two! 21!
Whoa! Wait!
What happened?
Shotgun.
Who do they think they are,
New York Jets?
Change! Change!
Take 9!
Bosley, move!
Move fast! Line up! Call Bosley! Take 9! Take l9!
Alright, come on!
Hut hut!
Very good.
Continue like that. Shotgun rush.
Protect 3! Go protect 3! Pass!
Hut!
Put a little pressure on QB.
They have this day to throw, Coach.
Just worry about the problem Your attack.
Come on! Swing it! Swing it!
Set!
Get set! Get set!
Hut!
Yeah!
No!
What's wrong, Gerry?
Don't come here!
They have a ball receiver everywhere.
It feels like watching Monday Night Football.
Good struggle, good struggle, good struggle.
Let him feel a little free.
And when they throw the ball, sticks to him.
- Ready? - Break!
Ready ?!
Red, 57!
Hut! Hut hut!
The quarterback star Titans,
Ronnie Bass, get 6 yards.
do you think? Do you think we have a chance?
Try giving me a way to disguise that protection.
Let's think about that. Come on
Get ready!
Set!
Hut!
They lead a mile.
He leads a mile from your , Coach.
If you want your defense to stop someone we have to get the ball back.
Yes, pata Titans gave them think of snapping,
but Ed Henry looks very confident.
T. C. Williams arrived at Half Time
7-0 behind.
Coach!
dear.
You should go back to your seat.
I can't, Coach. What?
Ed Henry has been working on Boone, is as sure as the attack.
And you did nothing to fight the attack.
Look, Coach...
This is not the time to be proud.
It's okay. We are in a fight.
You have done everything you can do.
Anyone can see it.
Win or lose...
we will step out of this stadium
with head raised.
Do your best.
That is all that is expected by everyone.
No, that's not it, Coach.
With all due respect, uh, you asked too much from us.
You ask for perfection.
I didn't say that I was perfect, because I didn't.
And I will never be perfect. None of us can.
But we have won all matches to date.
So this team is the perfect team.
Tonight we will go out to the field that way.
And, uh, if it's also the same for you, Coach Boone,
this way we will leave for you.
Yeah.
I hope all of you have learned a lot from me all year long
as much as I have learned from you.
You have taught this city how to believe in the power of the human soul than from their appearance.
And I think it's only a matter of time for me to join the club.
Herman! I definitely need your help.
Ed Henry is driving me in a problem out there.
Listen. This is the time.
The second half is our chance.
We will make some changes in defense.
They have made us too messy earlier.
We will include Sunshine, Alan, Glascoe, Davis.
You will play in two ways, throughout the rest of the match.
I don't want anyone recipient of the ball
that will cross the boundary line.
Coach Yoast will tell you where are you, ok?
Come on. Come in. This is the time for us.
Our time! Our time! Our time!
Titans at 3! 1, 2, 3!
Titans!
Come on! Come on! Come on!
All right, Julius.
We will do 52 monsters.
I know that's all you have to know.
Alright, we'll do the zone, Alan. I need--
Sir, I can play with Roosevelt.
But I can't play with these people.
No, I'll tell you.
I don't want to only be a backup all year long
so I will only see us failing from here.
Let Petey enter. He is better.
You want him to take your position You have to give it to him.
Thank you.
Ha ha! Ha ha ha!
All right, Petey!
That was great!
Attackers, hurry in!

!! Just as fast as my feet can fly !!
!! Come away, come away if you're goin '!!
!! Leave the sinkin 'ship behind !!

A goal for T. C. Williams.
Very good!

And they are now starting to chase Marshall 7-3,
enter the 4th Quarter.
Ref. He can get stuck off sides!
Look, 48 off sides!
Freeze Right, 99 Z go.
Ref, I know you can see it! You have eyes!
Gun Right, 84, X-Fat.
And tell Tommy to keep everything safe. Go.
Enter there, Blue. You understand what I mean.
You can't be afraid.
He's off sides! He will be stuck off sides!
Defense, hold them here!
Hold them right here!
Whoa! Pass! Pass!
Come on, attacker. Come on.
Titans left behind from Marshall 7-3.
What Marshall should do now
is retaining the ball,
and they will become state champions.
Watch their weak side!
On the weak side!
Hold the ball, Petey!
Hold the ball! Hold the ball!
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Defend the ball!
Hold the ball, Petey!
Alright! OK!
Ohh, Petey!
Coach.
Take Time Out! Time Out!
Coach, they can penetrate the strong side of our every time!
You have to catch them in that corner
and leave them behind us.
He must be in your game.
You have to give something that they didn't expect at all.
- Rev! Where is Rev? - Yes, Sir.
- Okay, listen, are you ready to run? - Yes, Sir.
Create a 23 Blast trick...
with George as a reversing backside.
Understand? 23 Blast Deception
with George as a reversing backside.
Do it like your life depends on it.
Come on! Come on! Let's give them a lesson!
Titans enter the field
with a little time left in the inter-state championship final.
I think he's injured.
I don't think so.
Why did they enter a Quarterback?
Titans get 75 yards to get to the finish line.
Oh, God. I can't see this.
I can't see this. Not.
Why? Why? Sheryl, what's wrong?
No, I can't see it.
Sheryl!
No, this is very bad. Not now. Not now.
They will play inside. They will play very deeply.
Keep an eye on operand - operand inside! Protect inside!
Get ready! Set! Hut!
Yeah!
Yeah! Ha ha ha!
Yes, that's all, children.
It's all.
Good season.
It's okay.
Yes! Yes!
Come on.
Congratulations, Coach!
Alright. Thank you, Coach.
You have worked well. Have played well.
I understand football,
but what have you done with the children,
You're the right person for this job, Coach!
You're the winner of the Hall of Fame in my book.
Yeah!
Mmm-ah! Whoo!
Yeah!
Whoo! Hoo hoo hoo!
Yeah!
Whoo!
Aah! Ha!
Titans dance to their triumphant dance in history.
13 and 0, the perfect season!
Champion - part and first Runner Up
in the National championship.
Second best high school in the country.
Gerry Bertier won the gold medal for the results of the throw
in the wheel of this game.
My father trained him.
Ten years later, Gerry died.
And that's what got us back here.
Gerry is gone, but his soul continues to live.
People say that, no will ever succeed, black and white,
Well, here we have proven that can work, every day.
We have experienced disputes, of course.
But before we arrive at our hate point
always, we will always remember The Titans!
