1
00:00:45,650 --> 00:00:48,150
inspired by a true story...
2
00:00:54,780 --> 00:00:56,940
anderson, south carolina
3
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,250
Here in the upstate, things don't
change much.
4
00:01:00,490 --> 00:01:01,950
Fall means football season.
5
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,620
Being married to a coach
means measuring things...
6
00:01:04,830 --> 00:01:06,950
...mainly by wins and losses.
7
00:01:07,210 --> 00:01:09,550
Except for that one year.
8
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:11,880
Jimmy Carter declared
that if elected...
9
00:01:12,090 --> 00:01:15,390
...he would do everything possible
to clean up the government.
10
00:01:15,590 --> 00:01:20,010
In South Carolina weather, late night
and early morning low clouds....
11
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,610
- Come on, let's go.
- No, Mom.
12
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,640
What's wrong with you, boy?!
Get out of my way!
13
00:03:18,050 --> 00:03:19,300
Damn!
14
00:03:49,790 --> 00:03:52,960
Laird, son, how many years
you been playing for me?
15
00:03:53,210 --> 00:03:55,800
- Two years, coach.
- You want to make that three?
16
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,960
- I suggest you start paying attention.
- Yes, sir.
17
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,350
We do things as a team, gentlemen.
18
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:07,050
One player doesn't execute, it's the
difference between 6 yards or 6 points.
19
00:04:07,350 --> 00:04:11,650
Honeycutt, what say we do
some up-downs as a team...
20
00:04:11,850 --> 00:04:14,310
...so we can further appreciate
that concept.
21
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,350
You heard the man!
Get them feet chopping now!
22
00:04:18,690 --> 00:04:20,560
Get it up nice! Get those knees up!
23
00:04:20,780 --> 00:04:22,080
Get them legs going!
24
00:04:23,530 --> 00:04:26,400
Get it up!
Get it up, right now!
25
00:04:44,260 --> 00:04:47,060
Come on, get them up! Get them up!
Get them up!
26
00:04:50,810 --> 00:04:53,150
Let's go! Come on, now!
27
00:04:58,190 --> 00:05:00,860
THE SLANTING MONSTER
DEFENSE IN FOOTBALL
28
00:05:01,070 --> 00:05:03,070
THE YELLOW JACKET
29
00:05:10,540 --> 00:05:12,040
Hey, you.
30
00:05:14,370 --> 00:05:17,950
Now, might any of those X's and O's
be for me tonight?
31
00:05:19,500 --> 00:05:22,580
- How's it coming?
- Almost done.
32
00:05:27,590 --> 00:05:29,260
Mary Helen home yet?
33
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,510
Mary Helen's been in bed
for an hour, Harold.
34
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,560
Y'all do have a week before you
actually have to play this game, right?
35
00:05:40,770 --> 00:05:43,560
- Right.
- I'll be right up.
36
00:05:44,610 --> 00:05:48,150
Ah, the first "I'll be right up"
of the season.
37
00:05:48,370 --> 00:05:50,500
Ready! Set!
38
00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:52,070
Hut!
39
00:05:52,410 --> 00:05:53,450
Let's go, now.
40
00:05:59,500 --> 00:06:03,170
Team, full speed! Live to the ball!
41
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:09,720
Ready!
42
00:06:09,970 --> 00:06:12,130
Blue, 24!
43
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:13,600
Set!
44
00:06:29,450 --> 00:06:32,120
Hey, Einstein. Why don't you try
picking the ball up.
45
00:06:32,330 --> 00:06:34,710
Yeah, you, dummy. What, you deaf?
46
00:06:34,910 --> 00:06:36,910
Yeah, pick it up. There you go.
47
00:06:38,460 --> 00:06:40,260
Throw it over here.
48
00:06:41,630 --> 00:06:42,840
Come on, throw it!
49
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,930
What are you doing? Hey, coach!
50
00:06:50,890 --> 00:06:52,270
He took our ball.
51
00:06:55,060 --> 00:06:56,100
Wha--?
52
00:06:56,730 --> 00:06:58,520
Run it again!
53
00:07:20,710 --> 00:07:23,880
- See you tomorrow.
- Okay. See you later, Mary Helen.
54
00:07:24,290 --> 00:07:25,500
Bye.
55
00:07:31,220 --> 00:07:32,970
You're getting home late.
56
00:07:33,180 --> 00:07:35,140
Oh, hey, Daddy.
57
00:07:35,350 --> 00:07:38,650
I tried calling a couple times,
but the line was busy.
58
00:07:38,850 --> 00:07:40,260
Your mama's asleep.
59
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,860
I'll talk to her in the morning, okay?
60
00:07:43,690 --> 00:07:44,740
All right.
61
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,160
- Night.
- Good night.
62
00:07:53,490 --> 00:07:55,570
Heard Mary Helen made
varsity cheerleader.
63
00:07:55,780 --> 00:07:58,660
- She's really excited.
- I'll bet. I'll bet Linda is too.
64
00:07:58,870 --> 00:08:00,740
Yeah, I guess so.
65
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:03,300
Do it again!
66
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,000
- One more time!
- You got them running something?
67
00:08:07,210 --> 00:08:08,250
Hit it!
68
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,540
Come on, dope.
69
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,590
- Hey, boy!
- Watch this. Watch this.
70
00:08:17,810 --> 00:08:21,110
- Bring them in.
- Gather up! On the double!
71
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,940
Well, is someone gonna
tell me what's going on here?
72
00:08:35,030 --> 00:08:36,990
How about it, Johnny?
73
00:08:41,540 --> 00:08:43,090
Nobody move.
74
00:08:43,290 --> 00:08:45,840
On, no, no, no, no.
75
00:08:50,050 --> 00:08:51,640
Oh, gee.
76
00:08:54,630 --> 00:08:57,300
I just want to help you.
77
00:08:59,220 --> 00:09:01,590
I'm just gonna cut the tape off you.
78
00:09:04,140 --> 00:09:07,180
You've gotta hold still.
Just try to hold still, now.
79
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,700
You gotta hold still. Look at me.
80
00:09:09,900 --> 00:09:13,830
Hold still. I'm not gonna hurt you.
Hold still. I don't want to cut you.
81
00:09:16,030 --> 00:09:18,190
My God. It's all right.
82
00:09:18,410 --> 00:09:20,290
Calm down a little bit. It's okay.
83
00:09:20,490 --> 00:09:24,200
I got it. Gonna get you
out of this mess.
84
00:09:24,410 --> 00:09:25,950
Okay, you're free.
85
00:09:45,350 --> 00:09:47,390
Anybody got anything to say?
86
00:09:51,860 --> 00:09:55,490
Tell your folks practice's gonna
run late tomorrow.
87
00:10:03,410 --> 00:10:06,330
Mary Helen tells me the cheerleading
squad's got itself...
88
00:10:06,540 --> 00:10:10,260
...what, half-a-dozen new faces
this semester, isn't that right?
89
00:10:11,710 --> 00:10:13,670
I also hear the athletic director...
90
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,920
...has to take the top spot
on the pyramid at pep rallies.
91
00:10:17,130 --> 00:10:18,920
Isn't that right?
92
00:10:19,470 --> 00:10:24,060
Harold, why not stop by and see what
kind of no-good your daughter's up to?
93
00:10:24,270 --> 00:10:25,310
Yeah, sure.
94
00:10:29,560 --> 00:10:31,680
You got a couple phone calls, Daddy.
95
00:10:33,190 --> 00:10:34,230
From who?
96
00:10:35,570 --> 00:10:39,330
Bobby Taggert's folks. Frank Clay.
I wrote them down for you.
97
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,370
- What'd you tell them?
- That you'd call back.
98
00:10:44,580 --> 00:10:47,880
Have you decided what you're
gonna do about these boys?
99
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:49,580
Not yet.
100
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,550
I'm sure most of them have never
done anything like this before.
101
00:10:54,750 --> 00:10:58,420
You didn't see the look
on this young man's face, Linda.
102
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,600
He was terrified.
103
00:11:14,900 --> 00:11:16,610
Coach Jones?
104
00:11:16,990 --> 00:11:18,570
Go on. Good idea.
105
00:11:18,780 --> 00:11:20,830
Might I have a minute of your time?
106
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:23,620
Y'all, excuse me.
107
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:27,920
Anybody ever said no to you on that,
Principal Daniels?
108
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,290
Nobody still working here.
109
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:33,800
He scores!
110
00:11:34,170 --> 00:11:38,220
- What can I do for you?
- I hear we had an incident yesterday.
111
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,790
Yes, ma'am, we did.
112
00:11:41,010 --> 00:11:42,640
You taking care of it?
113
00:11:43,430 --> 00:11:47,900
Let's just say today's practice won't be
the shortest one we've ever had.
114
00:11:48,140 --> 00:11:50,180
Good. Good.
115
00:11:50,850 --> 00:11:52,430
You know, Harold...
116
00:11:52,650 --> 00:11:56,490
...that boy has been rolling by here
for a long time now...
117
00:11:56,690 --> 00:11:58,190
...minding his own business.
118
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,520
Never caused any problem
for anybody.
119
00:12:02,780 --> 00:12:05,190
I need you all to keep it that way.
120
00:12:07,950 --> 00:12:09,450
I appreciate it.
121
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,500
No, I don't want the football.
122
00:12:47,580 --> 00:12:50,870
I just want to tell you I'm sorry
about what happened.
123
00:12:52,210 --> 00:12:55,130
I thought you needed to hear that
from someone.
124
00:12:56,750 --> 00:12:58,920
I don't want the football.
You keep it.
125
00:13:00,550 --> 00:13:03,260
Why don't you bring it
by practice later.
126
00:13:03,470 --> 00:13:06,560
I'll find you something to do.
Maybe you can help us out.
127
00:13:11,770 --> 00:13:14,360
Nothing more is gonna happen, son.
128
00:13:14,560 --> 00:13:16,100
I promise you.
129
00:13:21,780 --> 00:13:24,280
See you later. All right?
130
00:13:46,550 --> 00:13:49,010
All right, the nine of you.
131
00:13:49,220 --> 00:13:50,920
You know who you are.
132
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,110
Get on down there.
133
00:13:54,310 --> 00:13:57,480
Take your shoulder pads off.
Line up on the chalk.
134
00:13:57,730 --> 00:13:59,570
Let's go. Hustle up!
135
00:14:02,110 --> 00:14:03,320
Well...
136
00:14:04,070 --> 00:14:05,660
...what do you want to do?
137
00:14:05,860 --> 00:14:07,610
Run them.
138
00:14:07,990 --> 00:14:09,290
How long?
139
00:14:11,910 --> 00:14:13,920
Till I say stop.
140
00:14:18,290 --> 00:14:21,210
On the line now!
Where you're going to be.
141
00:14:21,670 --> 00:14:22,720
Ready.
142
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,800
All the way to the line, coach.
143
00:14:44,650 --> 00:14:47,360
Don't quit on me now!
Don't you quit on me!
144
00:14:47,570 --> 00:14:51,360
All the way through that line!
All the way through!
145
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,200
- Hi.
- Hey.
146
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,550
- Long day?
- Yeah.
147
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,420
How was yours?
148
00:15:51,130 --> 00:15:52,340
Long.
149
00:15:55,050 --> 00:15:59,640
So the report is that Mary Helen
got off to a great start in lit class...
150
00:15:59,850 --> 00:16:03,890
- ...but she's struggling with math.
- Well, the lit part sounds good.
151
00:16:06,270 --> 00:16:07,520
Come on, Harold.
152
00:16:07,730 --> 00:16:10,230
It's bad enough when a parent
misses a conference.
153
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,530
It's worse when the parent's
a teacher.
154
00:16:12,740 --> 00:16:16,250
The parent's a teacher,
he knows how his kid's doing.
155
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,090
What?
156
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,870
Please just tell me
that you forgot to go.
157
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,420
You know I had to deal
with those boys.
158
00:16:27,630 --> 00:16:29,550
Oh, those boys.
159
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,710
Can't you make room
for your daughter and those boys?
160
00:16:32,930 --> 00:16:37,310
Don't lecture me. I'll go see Ms. Marks
tomorrow if it'll make you feel better.
161
00:16:37,510 --> 00:16:40,930
Make me feel better?
This is not about me.
162
00:16:41,810 --> 00:16:43,480
She's a junior, Harold.
163
00:16:46,270 --> 00:16:50,400
I mean, she's got this year
and next.
164
00:16:50,610 --> 00:16:52,610
And then she's gone.
165
00:16:58,780 --> 00:17:01,070
The YEAR OF
The JACKETS
166
00:17:01,290 --> 00:17:02,630
Go!
167
00:17:05,500 --> 00:17:07,130
- Y'all ready?
- Yes, sir!
168
00:17:08,210 --> 00:17:09,620
Yes, sir!
169
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,000
Close your eyes for a minute.
170
00:17:14,010 --> 00:17:15,640
I want you to listen.
171
00:17:16,550 --> 00:17:18,470
You hear that?
172
00:17:18,850 --> 00:17:23,150
Imagine what that'll sound like
after we've all done our job tonight.
173
00:17:24,810 --> 00:17:26,140
And then...
174
00:17:27,940 --> 00:17:30,610
...I want you to imagine what
that's gonna feel like.
175
00:17:31,110 --> 00:17:34,990
I want you to picture your man
right across from you.
176
00:17:37,740 --> 00:17:39,530
You see him?
177
00:17:40,030 --> 00:17:42,820
You make the effort on every play,
you'll beat them.
178
00:17:43,540 --> 00:17:46,130
You play smart,
you're gonna outthink them.
179
00:17:46,330 --> 00:17:48,620
You play with heart and character...
180
00:17:48,830 --> 00:17:51,790
...and give your teammates everything
you've got on every play...
181
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,710
...you can walk off the field calling
yourselves a football team.
182
00:17:59,350 --> 00:18:03,230
Let's play with Hanna pride and never
stop believing in each other.
183
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,430
You win your battles...
184
00:18:05,940 --> 00:18:07,780
...we'll win our war.
185
00:18:08,350 --> 00:18:11,060
What's say let's have some fun
and get it done.
186
00:18:12,270 --> 00:18:13,310
GO
JACKETS!
187
00:18:14,150 --> 00:18:18,190
Your Hanna Yellow Jackets!
188
00:18:22,450 --> 00:18:24,030
Let's go, Jackets!
189
00:18:24,700 --> 00:18:26,280
The kickoff is high and deep...
190
00:18:26,500 --> 00:18:30,170
...and sends the Jackets' Johnny Clay
back near the goal line.
191
00:18:31,170 --> 00:18:35,550
Johnny Clay behind a convoy of Hanna
blockers. Heads up the right sideline.
192
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,220
Go! Go! Go! Go!
193
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:38,680
Get up there!
194
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,340
Finally knocked out-of-bounds
at the 42-yard line.
195
00:18:41,550 --> 00:18:43,590
Throw right 63 flag. Come on.
196
00:18:43,810 --> 00:18:44,850
Come on!
197
00:18:45,060 --> 00:18:46,730
First and 10 for the Jackets.
198
00:18:47,310 --> 00:18:48,690
Marcum back to pass.
199
00:18:48,890 --> 00:18:52,180
Finds Hawkins in the right flat
for another Jacket first down.
200
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,610
Get over here. Come on. Come on.
201
00:18:55,190 --> 00:18:56,860
Thirty-six crossbuck.
202
00:18:57,070 --> 00:19:00,950
Once you get the ball, I don't wanna
see nothing but the back of your jersey.
203
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:02,960
All right. Get out there.
204
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:05,370
The handoff is to Clay.
205
00:19:05,580 --> 00:19:09,710
Finds a big hole. Now cuts outside.
Beats one tackler. And another.
206
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:13,630
- Get upfield, son. Turn it on!
- He may go all the way.
207
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,930
- Touchdown, Hanna!
- Yeah! All right.
208
00:19:18,340 --> 00:19:21,340
Johnny Clay with a 30-yard run
gives the Jackets the lead!
209
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,680
- Less than two minutes to play.
- That's what we want.
210
00:19:28,430 --> 00:19:30,180
That's a 30-yard run, son!
211
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,060
That's our ball game!
That's our ball game!
212
00:19:35,270 --> 00:19:37,650
JACKETS - VISITORS
20 - 14
213
00:19:53,250 --> 00:19:54,910
BARBER SHOP
214
00:19:58,460 --> 00:20:00,210
- Evening, fellas.
- Hey, coach.
215
00:20:00,420 --> 00:20:02,050
- Harold.
- Honeycutt.
216
00:20:02,260 --> 00:20:03,720
Del. Don.
217
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,180
Kurt. Dennis.
218
00:20:06,390 --> 00:20:10,440
Just brewed that pot 10 minutes ago,
coach. Got yourself the first cup.
219
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:11,850
All right.
220
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:19,480
Well...
221
00:20:21,490 --> 00:20:23,410
...didn't exactly thump them...
222
00:20:23,610 --> 00:20:27,400
...but it wasn't too bad
as far as season openers go.
223
00:20:27,620 --> 00:20:30,130
Frank, your boy, Johnny,
had a heck of a run.
224
00:20:30,330 --> 00:20:32,840
Give him the ball,
he'll make you a smart man.
225
00:20:33,120 --> 00:20:34,160
That's right.
226
00:20:34,380 --> 00:20:37,260
Did notice a few things
we need to work on.
227
00:20:37,460 --> 00:20:40,790
You reckon these are the boys
gonna take us back to state?
228
00:20:41,010 --> 00:20:44,470
Come on, Clive. Little early
for that kind of talk, isn't it?
229
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,730
I hear Easley has a pretty
decent crop of speed this year.
230
00:20:47,930 --> 00:20:50,340
I guess we'll see about that
next week.
231
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,150
Think you might want to throw
the ball a bit more?
232
00:20:53,350 --> 00:20:54,970
I think about a lot of things.
233
00:20:55,190 --> 00:21:00,320
Listen, boys. Last thing coach needs
is us asking him a slew of questions.
234
00:21:00,530 --> 00:21:03,950
Especially after how he got
those young men to play.
235
00:21:04,150 --> 00:21:05,900
We got them revved up, didn't we?
236
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:09,210
So how do you plan on beating those
Easley boys Friday night?
237
00:21:09,410 --> 00:21:12,160
Well, Frank, if I was to tell you
that...
238
00:21:12,790 --> 00:21:15,550
...y'all wouldn't have a thing to talk
about all week.
239
00:21:22,130 --> 00:21:24,340
Boy, that's a good cup tonight, Del.
240
00:21:24,550 --> 00:21:25,750
Thank you.
241
00:21:27,390 --> 00:21:30,230
Come on, turn it up! Turn it up!
Turn it up!
242
00:21:31,140 --> 00:21:34,050
Good job! Good job!
243
00:21:41,190 --> 00:21:42,980
Hey, Honeycutt.
244
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:44,370
Yeah?
245
00:21:44,570 --> 00:21:46,150
See that young man over there?
246
00:21:47,700 --> 00:21:49,290
What do you figure he wants?
247
00:21:50,030 --> 00:21:51,070
I don't know.
248
00:21:51,290 --> 00:21:53,750
Come on, Spaulding,
bring it around there!
249
00:21:54,250 --> 00:21:56,130
I think maybe he's thirsty.
250
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:03,580
Well, go on.
251
00:22:11,220 --> 00:22:12,840
All right. Five minutes.
252
00:22:13,060 --> 00:22:15,730
Get yourself a drink.
Get on special teams.
253
00:22:21,900 --> 00:22:23,280
How you doing?
254
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,820
Yeah, you. No, wait, wait.
It's all right.
255
00:22:27,030 --> 00:22:29,330
Settle down. I ain't gonna
give you a hug.
256
00:22:29,530 --> 00:22:32,530
Just got a little water here. See?
257
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,200
I'm dropping something off here.
258
00:22:36,120 --> 00:22:38,330
Little something from Coach Jones.
259
00:22:39,630 --> 00:22:41,130
Got a name, son?
260
00:22:43,420 --> 00:22:45,500
You ain't gonna talk to me, are you?
261
00:22:45,710 --> 00:22:47,420
All right.
262
00:22:47,630 --> 00:22:50,260
Go ahead. Go on, give it a squeeze.
263
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,360
Set! Hut!
264
00:23:01,610 --> 00:23:03,950
- Come on, now!
- Good job, Justin.
265
00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:12,830
All right, bring it in!
266
00:23:23,540 --> 00:23:24,830
Hi.
267
00:23:28,340 --> 00:23:29,880
Glad you came by.
268
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,180
Thank you. What's your name?
269
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:49,740
Why don't you come on in.
270
00:23:50,490 --> 00:23:53,540
I got some hamburgers coming.
271
00:23:53,740 --> 00:23:55,570
Get your buggy. Come on in.
272
00:24:13,390 --> 00:24:15,230
Really good burgers.
273
00:24:42,750 --> 00:24:45,590
Oh, you found some music
you like. Good.
274
00:24:51,970 --> 00:24:53,930
Hey, look who's here.
275
00:24:57,810 --> 00:24:59,600
No ketchup, no onion.
276
00:24:59,810 --> 00:25:00,980
Thank you.
277
00:25:02,230 --> 00:25:05,940
- He tell you his name yet?
- He doesn't talk too much.
278
00:25:06,270 --> 00:25:09,100
But he's sure taken a liking
to that radio of yours.
279
00:25:10,730 --> 00:25:12,150
Radio.
280
00:25:13,900 --> 00:25:15,280
Radio, huh?
281
00:25:19,740 --> 00:25:22,070
You know, it's just sitting there.
282
00:25:22,290 --> 00:25:24,670
You can have it as far
as I'm concerned.
283
00:25:24,870 --> 00:25:26,410
Hey, you hear that...
284
00:25:27,130 --> 00:25:28,420
...Radio?
285
00:25:29,500 --> 00:25:33,210
Coach Honeycutt says you can take
that home with you if you like.
286
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:34,850
Hey, are you hungry?
287
00:25:36,140 --> 00:25:37,470
Would you like a hambur--?
288
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:47,570
You want something to wash it
down with too? Root beer? Coke?
289
00:25:48,230 --> 00:25:49,350
Coke.
290
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,320
- Man knows what he wants.
- Coke, it is.
291
00:26:21,350 --> 00:26:22,850
Well...
292
00:26:23,180 --> 00:26:25,850
...which way's home, Radio?
293
00:26:50,290 --> 00:26:53,000
There's nothing wrong
with a good country station.
294
00:26:56,630 --> 00:26:58,800
But I can get used to this too,
I guess.
295
00:27:07,350 --> 00:27:10,100
You know, the boys call me
Coach Jones.
296
00:27:11,610 --> 00:27:12,650
Coach Jones.
297
00:27:12,860 --> 00:27:15,950
You can call me what you like
when you get around to it.
298
00:27:17,110 --> 00:27:18,610
All right?
299
00:27:41,470 --> 00:27:44,060
I hope you can come by practice
tomorrow.
300
00:27:44,260 --> 00:27:46,930
The same time. All right?
301
00:27:55,900 --> 00:27:57,780
See you then, okay?
302
00:27:59,820 --> 00:28:01,020
Afternoon, ma'am.
303
00:28:02,740 --> 00:28:05,910
I'm Harold Jones. I coach the football
team over at Hanna High.
304
00:28:08,120 --> 00:28:11,200
I was just giving your boy
a ride home.
305
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:15,220
Come on in now, baby.
306
00:28:38,730 --> 00:28:40,060
Look.
307
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:45,490
Hey.
308
00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:47,780
- Hello.
- Yeah.
309
00:28:47,990 --> 00:28:51,070
- Look.
- I see you got yourself another one.
310
00:28:51,290 --> 00:28:52,340
Look.
311
00:28:53,210 --> 00:28:55,340
Oh, look at that.
312
00:28:55,830 --> 00:28:57,910
You get that from him?
313
00:28:58,210 --> 00:29:01,540
Yeah. Coach Jones.
314
00:29:05,010 --> 00:29:06,590
Look at that one.
315
00:29:08,430 --> 00:29:09,720
He a nice man?
316
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:11,940
Yeah.
317
00:29:12,140 --> 00:29:13,760
Good.
318
00:29:13,980 --> 00:29:17,650
I think it's time you got washed up
for dinner. You hungry?
319
00:29:17,860 --> 00:29:21,240
- Yeah.
- I made you some fried bread.
320
00:29:23,450 --> 00:29:26,330
All right. Get yourself washed up
for dinner.
321
00:29:32,450 --> 00:29:33,870
Set!
322
00:29:34,580 --> 00:29:36,620
Get in there! Get in there!
323
00:29:38,460 --> 00:29:41,580
Bring it in! Come on, hustle up!
Let's go.
324
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,930
Come on, hustle up!
325
00:29:44,300 --> 00:29:47,310
Bring it in. Good job. Good job.
Good practice, men.
326
00:29:47,970 --> 00:29:50,100
We got a lot to think about this week.
327
00:29:50,310 --> 00:29:52,730
Easley's got a ton of speed.
328
00:29:53,270 --> 00:29:57,820
Defense, containment. We gotta
keep them from getting outside.
329
00:29:58,020 --> 00:30:02,230
Offense, ball control. We'll grind it
out, keep their offense off the field.
330
00:30:03,900 --> 00:30:06,020
Now, there's one other thing.
331
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,120
See the young man over there?
332
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:13,080
Believe some of you already
know him. He goes by Radio.
333
00:30:13,410 --> 00:30:15,490
He'll be helping us out for a while.
334
00:30:18,170 --> 00:30:20,220
We will not have a problem with that.
335
00:30:20,420 --> 00:30:22,090
No, sir.
336
00:30:23,340 --> 00:30:24,430
Call it up, Danny.
337
00:30:29,010 --> 00:30:31,720
- One, two, three!
- Beat Easley!
338
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,400
- What's he doing?
- That's it. Get your knees up.
339
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,310
Look at him out there.
340
00:30:45,570 --> 00:30:48,160
That one! That one!
That one!
341
00:30:51,530 --> 00:30:52,570
Careful.
342
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:54,460
Sorry.
343
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:00,410
I'm sorry, Johnny.
344
00:31:00,630 --> 00:31:03,090
I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Johnny.
I'm sorry.
345
00:31:03,300 --> 00:31:04,340
You okay.
346
00:31:12,220 --> 00:31:13,680
Hanna!
347
00:31:13,890 --> 00:31:14,940
Hanna!
348
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,260
Hanna!
349
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,280
What the hell is going on out there?
350
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,810
Yellow Jackets still looking to
get on track. Marcum back to pass.
351
00:31:26,030 --> 00:31:27,570
Intercepted!
352
00:31:37,750 --> 00:31:39,630
Easley Stings Jackets 31-20
353
00:31:59,850 --> 00:32:01,180
Hanna Loses
3rd Straight
354
00:32:12,820 --> 00:32:15,740
Don't quit! Don't quit!
Don't quit!
355
00:32:18,700 --> 00:32:21,200
Go! Go!
356
00:32:22,710 --> 00:32:24,460
Hanna Crushes Daniel 27-15
357
00:32:46,150 --> 00:32:48,280
That was a good one.
I liked that one.
358
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:50,940
Radio!
359
00:32:51,780 --> 00:32:55,080
Hi, everybody. Hi, everybody.
Hi, everybody.
360
00:33:03,460 --> 00:33:05,590
Quite a show you put on tonight.
361
00:33:05,790 --> 00:33:09,710
Just wondering if you were running
a football program or a social club.
362
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,910
Radio, I need to talk to your mama.
That okay?
363
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:37,870
She right there.
364
00:33:42,790 --> 00:33:46,000
- Hi, Mama.
- There's a sandwich in there for you.
365
00:33:47,830 --> 00:33:50,120
- I'll be in there directly.
- Okay, Mama.
366
00:33:53,210 --> 00:33:54,540
Ma'am.
367
00:33:59,180 --> 00:34:04,150
I was wondering if we might carry
your son tomorrow on the team bus.
368
00:34:04,350 --> 00:34:05,720
Got us a football game.
369
00:34:06,650 --> 00:34:09,440
What your boys done to my son
was wrong...
370
00:34:09,650 --> 00:34:11,860
...but I don't expect you
to make up for it.
371
00:34:13,030 --> 00:34:14,990
The boys are taking to him real good.
372
00:34:15,650 --> 00:34:17,980
They're still boys, now, ain't they?
373
00:34:18,450 --> 00:34:20,330
I'll keep a good eye on him.
374
00:34:22,410 --> 00:34:24,780
I guess it's all right with me.
375
00:34:29,210 --> 00:34:31,590
I don't mean to pry, ma'am...
376
00:34:32,420 --> 00:34:34,000
...but I was hoping...
377
00:34:35,550 --> 00:34:38,890
...I might be able to ask you
what exactly is wrong with him.
378
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,310
Well, the doctors never could
give me a name for it.
379
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:47,650
Say he the same as everybody else,
just a little slower than most.
380
00:34:47,850 --> 00:34:51,180
I got a older boy, Walter.
He's fine and all.
381
00:34:52,900 --> 00:34:54,280
And their daddy?
382
00:35:00,700 --> 00:35:02,120
He died a while back.
383
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:05,320
I'm sorry.
384
00:35:07,460 --> 00:35:08,800
You got your hands full.
385
00:35:09,330 --> 00:35:13,540
Well, they got me working 10 hours
a day at the hospital. Some days more.
386
00:35:13,750 --> 00:35:17,040
So I'm wondering where he's at
half the time...
387
00:35:17,260 --> 00:35:19,390
...and worrying all the time.
388
00:35:19,590 --> 00:35:22,920
Because I figure they only gonna need
one excuse to put him away.
389
00:35:25,390 --> 00:35:30,720
James is a good boy, coach.
He got himself a good heart.
390
00:35:30,980 --> 00:35:34,280
Most folks just don't take the time
to see it, is all.
391
00:35:34,690 --> 00:35:35,900
James.
392
00:35:37,780 --> 00:35:39,910
James Robert Kennedy.
393
00:35:41,990 --> 00:35:43,240
Thank you, ma'am.
394
00:35:50,290 --> 00:35:52,950
No, he is not getting on that bus.
395
00:35:53,170 --> 00:35:55,590
Harold, he is not a student.
396
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,630
You don't even know how old he is.
397
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,670
Look, he has a handicap
we know nothing about.
398
00:36:01,890 --> 00:36:04,310
What if he has some kind
of a seizure?
399
00:36:04,510 --> 00:36:06,760
He's not the one who's
gonna have the seizure.
400
00:36:06,970 --> 00:36:09,010
This has nothing to do
with any of that.
401
00:36:09,230 --> 00:36:11,400
If you're saying
I'm overly concerned...
402
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:15,230
...about my students being with
a severely handicapped black man...
403
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,100
...I assure you that I am.
404
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,580
But my concern is not necessarily
for my students.
405
00:36:22,910 --> 00:36:25,540
I'm not so sure we're trying to help
somebody here...
406
00:36:25,740 --> 00:36:29,280
...or whether he's being used as
nothing more than a glorified mascot.
407
00:36:30,250 --> 00:36:33,250
You know me a hell of a lot
better than that.
408
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,920
Put your game face on.
409
00:36:42,510 --> 00:36:46,600
Wipe your smile off your faces.
Start thinking about football.
410
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,480
- Coach Jones. It raining hard.
- Radio. Radio.
411
00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,600
- Gonna be wet out there.
- It sure is.
412
00:36:52,810 --> 00:36:56,180
Listen, we're not gonna be able
to take you on the bus today.
413
00:36:57,940 --> 00:37:02,070
Some folks, they don't think
it's a good idea.
414
00:37:02,530 --> 00:37:06,000
They just don't understand yet,
but they'll catch on. Believe me.
415
00:37:06,530 --> 00:37:07,900
I'm sorry.
416
00:37:08,830 --> 00:37:10,330
I'm really sorry.
417
00:37:12,790 --> 00:37:14,960
I'll see you tomorrow. Okay?
418
00:37:36,020 --> 00:37:37,560
And in local sports...
419
00:37:37,770 --> 00:37:41,190
...Hanna's Yellow Jackets travel
to Wade Hampton tonight.
420
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,690
With a 4-4 record, they need to win
both their remaining games...
421
00:37:44,900 --> 00:37:47,190
...to keep their playoff hopes alive.
422
00:37:49,410 --> 00:37:51,710
Clock winding down now
in the fourth quarter.
423
00:37:51,910 --> 00:37:54,370
The Yellow Jackets have trailed
all night long...
424
00:37:54,580 --> 00:37:58,870
...but now within striking distance,
trailing 14 to 13.
425
00:38:03,670 --> 00:38:06,210
Danny Marcum barks out the signals.
426
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:08,300
He's back to pass.
427
00:38:09,050 --> 00:38:10,760
Incomplete.
428
00:38:19,190 --> 00:38:22,610
Second down now.
Still time to mount one last drive.
429
00:38:22,860 --> 00:38:25,240
And there's the draw play.
Playing up the middle.
430
00:38:25,450 --> 00:38:28,830
To 5, 10. First down, Jackets.
431
00:38:31,990 --> 00:38:34,910
Jackets will go for a field goal
to win it.
432
00:38:36,830 --> 00:38:39,080
Less than a minute to play.
433
00:38:47,300 --> 00:38:49,090
- Here's the snap. The kick.
- Kick.
434
00:38:50,090 --> 00:38:51,760
No good!
435
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:56,610
The Jackets' last-ditch efforts
fall short.
436
00:38:56,810 --> 00:39:01,440
Final score: Wade Hampton, 14,
Hanna, 13.
437
00:39:06,690 --> 00:39:09,980
LENNY'S CAFE
438
00:39:13,620 --> 00:39:15,710
Here, here. Use a spoon.
439
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:17,170
There you go.
440
00:39:17,370 --> 00:39:20,660
- I'll get some of these out of your way.
- All right.
441
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:21,920
Thank you, Grace.
442
00:39:22,250 --> 00:39:24,960
- Which cobbler you got today?
- I got so--
443
00:39:25,380 --> 00:39:28,290
- I'm not done.
- Don't talk with your mouth full, now.
444
00:39:30,300 --> 00:39:33,590
- Peach and blackberry.
- Peach and blackberry.
445
00:39:33,810 --> 00:39:35,600
What's it gonna be, Radio?
446
00:39:35,810 --> 00:39:36,850
Both.
447
00:39:38,310 --> 00:39:41,530
Give the man both. I'd like some
more coffee too, please.
448
00:39:41,730 --> 00:39:43,190
Yeah, I take both.
449
00:39:44,730 --> 00:39:46,730
- Radio, look at me.
- I want my pie.
450
00:39:46,940 --> 00:39:49,940
You got mustard on your cheek.
Get it for you.
451
00:39:50,150 --> 00:39:51,650
There you go.
452
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,840
Football season's just about over.
453
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,120
- You know that, don't you?
- One more game.
454
00:40:02,330 --> 00:40:04,210
Yep. One more game.
455
00:40:04,420 --> 00:40:06,180
You gonna be okay with that?
456
00:40:10,340 --> 00:40:14,510
- Where my pie?
- Don't worry, they're coming.
457
00:40:14,720 --> 00:40:16,880
She'll bring you your pie.
Don't worry.
458
00:40:17,100 --> 00:40:19,690
- I like both.
- She's got your order.
459
00:40:22,020 --> 00:40:24,980
Football. I like football.
460
00:40:25,820 --> 00:40:30,200
Some of us felt pretty bad about
leaving you off that bus last night.
461
00:40:32,450 --> 00:40:34,910
We're gonna find a way
to make it up to you.
462
00:40:36,740 --> 00:40:38,360
How you gonna do that, coach?
463
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:47,680
Your Hanna Yellow Jackets!
464
00:40:50,340 --> 00:40:52,720
Jackets!
465
00:40:55,430 --> 00:40:56,730
All right!
466
00:41:03,230 --> 00:41:06,990
- We're having fun. This is a good one.
- This is a good one.
467
00:41:07,190 --> 00:41:10,610
Nothing like archrival Westside
to get Jackets fans stirred up.
468
00:41:10,820 --> 00:41:13,660
Winning this one would even Hanna's
record at 5 and 5...
469
00:41:13,860 --> 00:41:16,190
...and though a far cry
from early season hopes...
470
00:41:16,410 --> 00:41:19,120
...salvage a measure of pride
for the home squad.
471
00:41:21,330 --> 00:41:24,420
Here we go. Here we go.
472
00:41:24,620 --> 00:41:27,250
All right, 4 right,
24 flank and reverse.
473
00:41:27,460 --> 00:41:30,370
- Third and 6 on the 40.
- That was a good one, coach.
474
00:41:30,590 --> 00:41:32,720
- We'll see.
- Ready!
475
00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:34,500
That was a reverse! Reverse!
476
00:41:34,720 --> 00:41:35,930
Reverse!
477
00:41:36,140 --> 00:41:37,140
Come back here.
478
00:41:37,350 --> 00:41:38,980
What--?
He's telling the play!
479
00:41:39,180 --> 00:41:42,550
Westside defense calling an audible,
brings in both linebackers.
480
00:41:42,770 --> 00:41:44,400
- Danny, check it off.
- Reverse!
481
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,770
Jones signaling for time, but Marcum
doesn't hear him.
482
00:41:47,980 --> 00:41:51,150
Marcum rolls right, pitches it
to Hill on a flank and reverse.
483
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:55,660
He is crushed in the backfield
and fumbles the ball.
484
00:41:55,860 --> 00:41:58,780
- It's recovered by Westside!
- Daggum it!
485
00:41:59,580 --> 00:42:00,620
Come on.
486
00:42:02,660 --> 00:42:05,450
No wonder! They knew the play.
They knew the play!
487
00:42:05,670 --> 00:42:07,760
Defense, get out there.
488
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:12,300
Radio, listen to me. You can't let the
other team know what we're gonna do.
489
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:15,300
- How they know that, coach?
- Tommy, get out there!
490
00:42:15,510 --> 00:42:16,850
Good God.
491
00:42:17,050 --> 00:42:18,760
Set! Hike!
492
00:42:18,970 --> 00:42:21,380
Snead back to pass for Westside.
493
00:42:22,770 --> 00:42:26,110
It's broken up, but a flag is thrown
on the Jackets' cornerback.
494
00:42:26,310 --> 00:42:27,560
No!
495
00:42:27,770 --> 00:42:30,140
- Got him in the back, coach.
- Are you kidding?!
496
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,820
- You blew that call and you know it.
- You need to move back.
497
00:42:34,030 --> 00:42:37,950
- Don't do it. Don't do it.
- That was a chickenshit call.
498
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:39,870
- Fifteen more!
- Oh, come on!
499
00:42:40,070 --> 00:42:41,650
Another penalty on Jones.
500
00:42:41,870 --> 00:42:45,920
- Chickenshit! Chickenshit!
- Fifteen more. Go to the white line.
501
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:47,740
Chickenshit! Chickenshit!
502
00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:51,090
- Radio! Get him out of there, Honeycutt!
- Get him back.
503
00:42:51,340 --> 00:42:52,800
Unsportsmanlike conduct!
504
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,630
Just called a third penalty
on the Jackets' bench.
505
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:57,840
It looks like a train wreck
down there.
506
00:42:58,050 --> 00:43:00,130
Honeycutt, get him off the field.
507
00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:03,850
How many flags you got?!
You got any more flags?!
508
00:43:04,060 --> 00:43:06,900
- Get him back!
- A total of 45 yards now on the play.
509
00:43:07,100 --> 00:43:09,060
- There goes my evening.
- Come on, Radio.
510
00:43:09,270 --> 00:43:11,430
Let's go, buddy. Here we go.
511
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:19,860
Any chance I can get the ball?
512
00:43:20,070 --> 00:43:22,820
Nobody speaks in here
unless Coach Jones says he does.
513
00:43:23,030 --> 00:43:24,530
Sit down, Clay.
514
00:43:29,580 --> 00:43:31,080
There your ball.
515
00:43:36,090 --> 00:43:38,760
Now that we got that taken care of....
516
00:43:44,310 --> 00:43:47,020
Jackets trying to hold Westside
in the fourth quarter.
517
00:43:47,230 --> 00:43:50,860
They've stiffened here in the second
half and still trail by only 4.
518
00:43:51,650 --> 00:43:53,570
Here comes the Jackets' blitz.
519
00:43:55,690 --> 00:43:57,980
- He got him! He got him!
- He got him!
520
00:43:58,190 --> 00:43:59,190
Go!
521
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,900
The ball will go back to the Jackets
with time for one last drive.
522
00:44:07,500 --> 00:44:08,540
Hut!
523
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,540
Marcum keeps it.
Pitches to Smalls.
524
00:44:12,750 --> 00:44:17,330
Bounces off one tackler
and breaks free. Touchdown, Jackets!
525
00:44:17,590 --> 00:44:19,350
Good job. Come here.
526
00:44:19,550 --> 00:44:24,430
Flanker right, split left. Twenty-four
Z post. Get on your horse, now.
527
00:44:26,930 --> 00:44:28,800
Hey, Honeycutt...
528
00:44:29,020 --> 00:44:31,020
...I got a good feeling about this one.
529
00:44:31,230 --> 00:44:33,320
Good feeling. Good feeling.
530
00:44:35,690 --> 00:44:36,980
Set! Hut!
531
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:39,940
Marcum fakes the handoff
and drops back to pass.
532
00:44:40,820 --> 00:44:41,860
Looking long.
533
00:44:43,070 --> 00:44:44,650
Mitchell's open.
534
00:44:46,660 --> 00:44:50,130
Touchdown, Yellow Jackets!
535
00:44:50,330 --> 00:44:54,010
- Oh! That was a good one!
- Good one! What'd I tell you?
536
00:44:54,290 --> 00:44:58,370
With less than a minute to play, Hanna
has overtaken rival Westside...
537
00:44:58,590 --> 00:45:02,050
...with a stunning 37-yard touchdown.
538
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:11,480
That's the way the game's
supposed to be played. Good job.
539
00:45:17,940 --> 00:45:19,690
Settle down, now. Listen up.
540
00:45:20,190 --> 00:45:23,820
That was a great team effort out there
tonight. Great comeback.
541
00:45:24,030 --> 00:45:26,900
Y'all played your hearts out.
I'm proud of you. Good job.
542
00:45:28,620 --> 00:45:29,710
Honeycutt.
543
00:45:30,410 --> 00:45:33,990
For standing behind us all season long,
especially tonight...
544
00:45:34,210 --> 00:45:36,010
...the game ball...
545
00:45:36,540 --> 00:45:38,040
...goes to Radio.
546
00:45:53,020 --> 00:45:55,360
- Can you sign this?
- Yeah, sure.
547
00:45:58,020 --> 00:46:00,020
- There you go.
- Thanks.
548
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,660
- Hey. How are you?
- Much better now.
549
00:46:02,860 --> 00:46:06,330
Yeah? You want me to bring
this home tonight?
550
00:46:06,530 --> 00:46:07,860
You only got one of them?
551
00:46:08,070 --> 00:46:11,110
- I had a lot to choose from, didn't I?
- No kidding, huh?
552
00:46:11,330 --> 00:46:14,790
- You going over to the shop?
- I suspect so. Shouldn't be too painful.
553
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:19,470
Well, don't forget to bring some of
that unsportsmanlike conduct home.
554
00:46:19,670 --> 00:46:21,300
All right.
555
00:46:24,970 --> 00:46:26,720
- Evening, fellas.
- Harold.
556
00:46:26,930 --> 00:46:30,770
- Irv. Clive.
- Nice win tonight, coach.
557
00:46:34,430 --> 00:46:38,560
- I'll make us a fresh batch.
- Well, this will be fine, Del.
558
00:46:42,110 --> 00:46:47,200
Well, I know a .500 season
isn't what we all had in mind...
559
00:46:47,410 --> 00:46:50,500
...but I did see some things tonight
I think we can build on.
560
00:46:51,240 --> 00:46:54,030
The boys made good adjustments
at halftime...
561
00:46:54,250 --> 00:46:56,880
...and Danny Marcum finally got
the offense moving.
562
00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:59,080
- He sure did.
- He sure did, coach.
563
00:46:59,710 --> 00:47:02,050
I'm real proud of all the boys.
564
00:47:03,710 --> 00:47:07,590
Always good to beat Westside,
and it's nice to win the last one.
565
00:47:08,130 --> 00:47:11,050
Wasn't long ago
we were winning most every one.
566
00:47:11,850 --> 00:47:13,980
There something you need
to say, Frank?
567
00:47:16,230 --> 00:47:17,270
Well...
568
00:47:17,730 --> 00:47:22,320
...I think we got too good a team
to be losing half our games.
569
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:29,360
Anybody else?
570
00:47:32,950 --> 00:47:35,290
It's all right, you can speak up.
571
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:41,700
Well, if nobody else is gonna
say anything, I sure as hell will.
572
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,640
You got yourself a distraction
needs dealing with.
573
00:47:47,300 --> 00:47:48,930
A distraction?
574
00:47:51,550 --> 00:47:53,800
That what you think Radio is?
575
00:47:54,050 --> 00:47:55,800
Well, you're damn right I do.
576
00:47:56,020 --> 00:47:57,350
Come on, now, Frank.
577
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:05,850
You know, I think I'm gonna
do us all a big favor...
578
00:48:06,650 --> 00:48:09,320
...and let you all finish this one
on your own.
579
00:48:17,330 --> 00:48:18,920
Coffee's been better, Del.
580
00:48:19,790 --> 00:48:21,340
Sorry, coach.
581
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:35,840
Well, now you show up.
582
00:48:36,060 --> 00:48:37,270
You chickenshit.
583
00:48:38,270 --> 00:48:40,610
I figured I'd just be in the way.
584
00:48:41,980 --> 00:48:43,360
How'd it go?
585
00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:48,350
That good, huh?
586
00:48:49,490 --> 00:48:53,200
I'm afraid we've got
a disgruntled booster on our hands.
587
00:48:54,030 --> 00:48:55,360
Banker Frank?
588
00:48:56,160 --> 00:49:01,500
Yeah, he says we got a problem
with Radio being on the sidelines.
589
00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:08,750
What do you think?
590
00:49:13,340 --> 00:49:15,260
I think that one's up to you.
591
00:49:20,930 --> 00:49:22,970
How's the basketball team looking?
592
00:49:24,020 --> 00:49:27,070
Just fine long as Johnny
stays healthy. Why?
593
00:49:27,770 --> 00:49:31,150
Oh, I just thought Radio
might need something to do.
594
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,540
- I reckon we could use some help.
- Good.
595
00:49:39,740 --> 00:49:41,240
I'll see you Monday.
596
00:49:45,750 --> 00:49:48,590
T.L. HANNA
VARSITY FOOTBALL
597
00:49:49,300 --> 00:49:52,260
Hey, what you got now, boy?
598
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:54,640
Football. Football.
599
00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:57,760
A football? Coach Jones
gave you that?
600
00:49:58,090 --> 00:49:59,470
Yeah.
601
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,690
Wait a minute, now.
602
00:50:04,770 --> 00:50:06,440
What's the matter?
603
00:50:10,110 --> 00:50:13,280
- We all done.
- Oh, now.
604
00:50:13,490 --> 00:50:17,870
We all knew the season
was gonna end sometime. Yeah?
605
00:50:19,830 --> 00:50:21,210
But look what you got.
606
00:50:21,410 --> 00:50:23,280
A football...
607
00:50:23,910 --> 00:50:26,410
...and a sweatshirt.
608
00:50:26,620 --> 00:50:29,200
And lookie here. Look at all of this.
609
00:50:30,090 --> 00:50:31,630
Look at that.
610
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:34,300
- That Radio.
- Yeah.
611
00:50:35,300 --> 00:50:38,640
See, now, next fall gonna be here
before you know it.
612
00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:40,260
Promise.
613
00:50:41,720 --> 00:50:43,840
Now, give Mama a hug.
614
00:50:45,890 --> 00:50:47,720
Boy, what's that?
615
00:50:48,810 --> 00:50:50,640
I want me a hug.
616
00:50:54,690 --> 00:50:57,270
I'm always here for you, baby.
617
00:50:59,990 --> 00:51:03,860
President-elect Carter met President
Ford today at the White House.
618
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:07,000
Also meeting with CIA boss
George Bush.
619
00:51:07,210 --> 00:51:10,920
The New York Post has been sold to
Australian publisher Rupert Murdoch.
620
00:51:11,130 --> 00:51:12,720
- Morning, girls.
- Morning.
621
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,630
Free agent Reggie Jackson signed
a five-year deal...
622
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:18,470
...to play with the New York Yankees.
623
00:51:35,530 --> 00:51:37,070
- Hi, Nicole.
- Hi.
624
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:38,610
Coach Jones.
625
00:51:38,860 --> 00:51:40,780
- Good morning, Lou.
- Good morning.
626
00:51:40,990 --> 00:51:42,580
What brings you around here?
627
00:51:42,780 --> 00:51:46,910
Seeing as you never drop by my office,
I thought I'd pop up for a visit.
628
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:50,450
- And how is everything?
- Everything's fine. Why?
629
00:51:50,710 --> 00:51:55,010
A little bird says Mr. Kennedy's spent
time with you inside the building.
630
00:51:55,210 --> 00:51:56,710
Yeah, that's correct.
631
00:51:57,460 --> 00:51:59,210
Do you see that
as a problem?
632
00:51:59,430 --> 00:52:02,020
Disrupting a football game
is one thing.
633
00:52:02,220 --> 00:52:04,980
Disrupting a classroom
is a different matter.
634
00:52:07,350 --> 00:52:10,820
I want him with you all the time.
Okay?
635
00:52:11,020 --> 00:52:12,280
Yes, ma'am.
636
00:52:13,770 --> 00:52:16,560
- -I-O.
637
00:52:17,150 --> 00:52:18,730
"Radio."
638
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:21,080
And that's how you spell it.
639
00:52:21,950 --> 00:52:23,500
Here, you want to try it?
640
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:26,660
You want to do it?
641
00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:31,590
Look. It's easy. You just take
the chalk and it writes right on there.
642
00:52:32,170 --> 00:52:35,050
All right, well, we don't
have to do it right now.
643
00:52:35,250 --> 00:52:36,710
Radio.
644
00:52:42,180 --> 00:52:45,730
Blueberry and pumpkin today.
Pie, not cobbler.
645
00:52:47,140 --> 00:52:48,440
Both.
646
00:52:55,270 --> 00:52:58,230
Coach Jones, you're needed
in the office.
647
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:00,730
All right, everybody,
just keep working.
648
00:53:01,610 --> 00:53:04,780
Radio, keep everybody under control
while I'm gone, now.
649
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:06,900
Keep an eye on everything.
650
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:13,670
No talking. No talking.
651
00:53:13,870 --> 00:53:15,830
No talking. No--
652
00:53:18,250 --> 00:53:20,960
Well, now, how long
would you say Mr. Kennedy...
653
00:53:21,170 --> 00:53:23,710
...has been in
an actual classroom setting?
654
00:53:23,970 --> 00:53:27,020
Well, let's see, about a month.
655
00:53:28,720 --> 00:53:30,140
And the thinking behind that?
656
00:53:30,350 --> 00:53:33,650
He was doing fine with the team.
I didn't see any harm in it.
657
00:53:40,730 --> 00:53:42,730
Mr. Tucker, I know you got a job
to do...
658
00:53:42,950 --> 00:53:46,830
...but is me having Radio in the
classroom really worth all this trouble?
659
00:53:47,990 --> 00:53:50,660
That's what the school board
would like to find out.
660
00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:54,710
This is a young man who's been
spending his entire lifetime...
661
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:57,710
...wandering around all by himself
out on the streets.
662
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:01,380
Which is quite different than being
inside a public school. Right?
663
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,510
Yeah, well, that's the point,
isn't it?
664
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:05,840
Mr. Tucker...
665
00:54:06,050 --> 00:54:09,470
...I am well aware of the liability risk
we are running here.
666
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:13,640
Harold will be first to tell you, my list
of reservations is longer than most.
667
00:54:13,850 --> 00:54:15,350
I'm sure that's the case.
668
00:54:16,810 --> 00:54:20,270
But the fact of the matter is,
none of us has any experience...
669
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:24,690
...with having a severely retarded man
wandering the halls with our students.
670
00:54:25,740 --> 00:54:26,870
The risk is enormous.
671
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:29,440
- Please keep that in mind.
- I will.
672
00:54:31,990 --> 00:54:33,030
Ms. Daniels.
673
00:54:34,410 --> 00:54:37,700
- Mr. Jones.
- Thank you, Mr. Tucker.
674
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:44,970
Well, this is a hell of a position
you've put me in.
675
00:54:46,220 --> 00:54:50,560
Yeah, I suppose it is, Lou.
But Radio's not gonna do anything.
676
00:54:51,180 --> 00:54:52,350
Harold.
677
00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:55,980
Why on earth are you doing this?
678
00:54:59,610 --> 00:55:01,280
Same reason you are.
679
00:55:04,690 --> 00:55:07,520
- Defense.
- Defense. Come on.
680
00:55:10,240 --> 00:55:12,240
- How you doing?
- I'm good. I'm good.
681
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:17,160
- That's in. That's all right.
- Looks like Radio's doing okay.
682
00:55:17,410 --> 00:55:19,120
Long as there's a ball.
683
00:55:19,630 --> 00:55:21,090
How you doing?
684
00:55:21,590 --> 00:55:23,720
Hell, Honeycutt, you know me.
685
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:27,130
Get near Christmas, I start
counting the days till next season.
686
00:55:27,670 --> 00:55:29,090
Here you go. Watch this.
687
00:55:31,010 --> 00:55:32,630
Look at him, Honeycutt.
688
00:55:33,350 --> 00:55:36,150
Wasn't long ago you couldn't get
a word out of him.
689
00:55:37,100 --> 00:55:39,140
Yeah, I miss those days sometimes.
690
00:55:39,350 --> 00:55:42,480
I'm going to shoot that one.
I'm going to get that one.
691
00:55:44,270 --> 00:55:48,020
Yeah, I got that one. I like that one.
Okay, here we go.
692
00:55:48,950 --> 00:55:50,620
All right, bring it in.
693
00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:55,950
I'll get it.
694
00:55:57,750 --> 00:55:59,130
- Hello?
- Hey, Mrs. Jones.
695
00:55:59,330 --> 00:56:01,290
- It's Radio.
- Hi, Radio.
696
00:56:01,500 --> 00:56:02,700
Is Coach Jones there?
697
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,430
Just a minute, Radio, I'll get him.
Harold!
698
00:56:05,630 --> 00:56:08,390
Mom? Have you seen my red clip?
699
00:56:09,010 --> 00:56:11,390
- My red hair clip.
- Yes, on the washer.
700
00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:12,720
Harold!
701
00:56:14,300 --> 00:56:16,640
Radio, can I help you
with something?
702
00:56:17,270 --> 00:56:18,690
What pants I put on?
703
00:56:19,390 --> 00:56:21,890
Didn't your mama lay out
clothes for you?
704
00:56:22,190 --> 00:56:23,480
No, she not here.
705
00:56:23,690 --> 00:56:25,240
She working tonight.
706
00:56:25,650 --> 00:56:28,990
Just pick something out and put it on.
I'm sure it'll look fine.
707
00:56:29,190 --> 00:56:32,280
- It's a big night.
- We're doing the Christmas tree up.
708
00:56:32,490 --> 00:56:34,040
- That right?
- That's right.
709
00:56:34,240 --> 00:56:36,570
So just grab something
and put it on.
710
00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:40,490
Harold?
711
00:56:40,830 --> 00:56:42,410
Is that Radio?
712
00:56:47,250 --> 00:56:48,290
How about this one?
713
00:56:50,130 --> 00:56:51,170
What?
714
00:56:51,930 --> 00:56:53,180
How about this one?
715
00:56:53,390 --> 00:56:55,480
- Tell him those look fine.
- Those look fine.
716
00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:58,850
Okay. Radio gonna put them on.
717
00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:16,000
Put it right there. There.
718
00:57:19,490 --> 00:57:22,580
Big Radio in there, Mrs. Jones.
719
00:57:22,790 --> 00:57:25,050
That's a big Radio.
720
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:28,580
- I'm gonna get a cookie.
- Don't eat too many, now.
721
00:57:28,800 --> 00:57:29,930
All right.
722
00:57:31,380 --> 00:57:34,090
- Little something for Radio.
- Great, thanks a lot.
723
00:57:34,300 --> 00:57:36,970
- Have a great one. Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.
724
00:57:37,180 --> 00:57:40,440
- I'm taking these presents to Radio's.
- Of course you are.
725
00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:43,930
- I'll go with Carolyn.
- All right. Thanks.
726
00:57:44,730 --> 00:57:47,110
- He sure cleaned up this Christmas.
- Oh, yeah.
727
00:57:47,310 --> 00:57:49,440
Thank you. Merry Christmas
to you.
728
00:57:49,650 --> 00:57:51,870
- Merry Christmas, coach.
- Have a good one.
729
00:57:52,070 --> 00:57:54,990
- Merry Christmas. Thank you.
- Merry Christmas.
730
00:57:56,070 --> 00:57:57,990
- Hey, Daddy.
- Hi, honey.
731
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:01,530
These are from Mr. Wagner's store.
Thought Radio might need shirts.
732
00:58:01,750 --> 00:58:03,250
Great, thanks.
733
00:58:04,660 --> 00:58:08,120
This is nice. You getting folks
to help Radio out.
734
00:58:08,500 --> 00:58:10,790
No shortage of people
feeling sorry for him.
735
00:58:12,590 --> 00:58:15,350
We're not asking people
to feel sorry for him.
736
00:58:15,550 --> 00:58:17,340
That's the last thing he needs.
737
00:58:29,940 --> 00:58:31,650
Look, Mary Helen...
738
00:58:37,030 --> 00:58:39,740
...I know we haven't had much
chance to talk lately.
739
00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,360
There's been plenty of chances,
Daddy.
740
00:58:42,580 --> 00:58:44,170
You just don't take any of them.
741
00:58:49,460 --> 00:58:51,090
It's all right.
742
00:58:52,460 --> 00:58:54,920
Radio needs what you're doing
more than I do.
743
00:58:55,130 --> 00:58:57,550
- Look--
- Time to go, Coach Jones.
744
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:00,420
Time to go. Time to go.
745
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:03,980
- Merry Christmas, Mary Helen.
- Merry Christmas, Radio.
746
00:59:04,470 --> 00:59:05,510
Presents.
747
00:59:05,730 --> 00:59:07,940
- A bunch of them.
- Yeah. So beautiful.
748
00:59:08,150 --> 00:59:09,440
Christmas.
749
00:59:15,490 --> 00:59:16,580
Good night, Daddy.
750
00:59:19,700 --> 00:59:21,410
I'll see you at home.
751
00:59:29,670 --> 00:59:30,710
You all set to go?
752
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:32,630
- Merry Christmas, coach.
- Merry Christmas.
753
00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:36,510
- I can't wait till Mama see these gifts.
- Yeah, she'll be surprised.
754
00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:38,050
I can't wait to get home.
755
00:59:38,260 --> 00:59:41,520
This is so beautiful. I'll tell Mama
about the tree.
756
00:59:41,720 --> 00:59:44,550
- Think we'll fit them all in the house?
- No.
757
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:46,300
SEASON'S
GREETINGS
758
00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:47,690
That's a big one.
759
00:59:48,940 --> 00:59:51,690
I can't wait to open these.
These are all beautiful.
760
00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:55,820
Think it'd be all right to open
one tonight?
761
00:59:56,570 --> 00:59:59,280
- Sure. Yeah.
- Which one I open?
762
00:59:59,490 --> 01:00:01,950
I got one right here. Open this one.
763
01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:05,120
- Who that from, coach?
- Mrs. Jones, Mary Helen and me.
764
01:00:05,580 --> 01:00:06,830
It is?
765
01:00:08,790 --> 01:00:10,000
I hope you like it.
766
01:00:17,590 --> 01:00:19,140
It's a radio.
767
01:00:20,220 --> 01:00:22,890
- It's a radio.
- Turn it on, see if it works.
768
01:00:29,060 --> 01:00:30,230
It's working, coach.
769
01:00:30,940 --> 01:00:32,570
It's a good one.
770
01:00:32,810 --> 01:00:35,390
It's working on there.
771
01:00:36,020 --> 01:00:39,810
Mama, it's working. Come on, Mama.
Come on, Mama. Dance.
772
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:44,910
- Dance with me. Come and dance.
- All right, all right.
773
01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:48,320
This is a good one. Come on, coach.
774
01:00:48,540 --> 01:00:52,050
- It's Christmas. Come on, coach.
- Oh, come on. Come on.
775
01:00:52,250 --> 01:00:53,510
All right. All right.
776
01:00:55,380 --> 01:00:56,930
Go, Radio, go!
777
01:01:02,220 --> 01:01:04,390
- Go, Radio, go!
- Dance.
778
01:01:06,970 --> 01:01:08,840
I like that one.
779
01:01:09,270 --> 01:01:10,560
I like that one.
780
01:01:10,810 --> 01:01:12,570
- Thank you, coach.
- You're welcome.
781
01:01:12,770 --> 01:01:15,610
Thank you, coach. Merry Christmas.
782
01:01:15,980 --> 01:01:17,810
That's a good one.
783
01:01:19,610 --> 01:01:21,570
Oh, hush now.
784
01:01:22,030 --> 01:01:25,410
Lord, we ain't never seen
no Christmas like this.
785
01:01:25,660 --> 01:01:29,870
- You cut a pretty mean rug, coach.
- Oh, come on.
786
01:01:35,330 --> 01:01:37,250
That's where he gets it.
787
01:01:37,670 --> 01:01:42,850
Well, he may not get everything I try
to teach him, but he did get that.
788
01:01:44,470 --> 01:01:48,770
The hospital's got me working 16
straight, right through Christmas Day.
789
01:01:48,970 --> 01:01:51,970
At least tonight I get a little bit
of holiday with my boy.
790
01:01:52,350 --> 01:01:53,470
Good.
791
01:01:54,480 --> 01:01:57,030
You know, coach,
it wasn't that long ago...
792
01:01:57,980 --> 01:02:00,850
...I see you drive up
in that truck of yours...
793
01:02:01,070 --> 01:02:03,700
...and be wondering
why you doing what you doing.
794
01:02:07,410 --> 01:02:09,870
So why are you doing
what you're doing?
795
01:02:14,500 --> 01:02:16,760
I figure it's the right thing to do.
796
01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:22,300
There's a whole lot out there that's
right. Don't mean we always do it.
797
01:02:23,050 --> 01:02:24,850
No, ma'am, it doesn't.
798
01:02:31,430 --> 01:02:34,970
James has been telling me next year's
team shaping up as a good one.
799
01:02:35,190 --> 01:02:38,780
Well, we're hoping. If all works out.
800
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:42,570
You'd let me know
if he was a problem?
801
01:02:44,190 --> 01:02:46,610
He's no problem at all, believe me.
802
01:02:51,120 --> 01:02:53,920
How does it feel to be out
from behind bars, Angels?
803
01:03:02,300 --> 01:03:05,220
Merry Christmas
Daddy
804
01:03:43,750 --> 01:03:45,710
Good night, darling.
805
01:03:55,770 --> 01:04:00,280
From all of us, to all of you,
a very merry Christmas.
806
01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:05,770
Cloudy and cold today, so stay by that
fire and keep it right here on WAIM.
807
01:04:05,980 --> 01:04:09,070
We'll keep you warm with
your favorite hits commercial-free...
808
01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:11,160
...all morning long.
809
01:04:15,660 --> 01:04:17,070
Merry Christmas.
810
01:04:18,290 --> 01:04:21,130
- Quite a load you got there.
- Yeah.
811
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,460
Right there. Put that right there.
812
01:04:29,340 --> 01:04:31,210
Mind telling me where it came from?
813
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:33,630
Presents for me.
814
01:04:41,690 --> 01:04:43,650
Put that right there.
815
01:04:47,530 --> 01:04:49,160
Hold up.
816
01:04:49,530 --> 01:04:52,870
- That's a pretty decent Christmas--
- No, no, no. That's for me.
817
01:04:53,070 --> 01:04:55,200
- What's your name, son?
- Radio.
818
01:04:55,410 --> 01:04:58,750
Radio, huh?
Hey. Keep it here.
819
01:04:59,040 --> 01:05:00,380
- No.
- I said, keep it here.
820
01:05:00,580 --> 01:05:02,410
- No.
- I said keep--
821
01:05:09,010 --> 01:05:12,060
- No.
- Stay still. Come on.
822
01:05:15,090 --> 01:05:16,220
Let's go.
823
01:05:17,890 --> 01:05:21,310
- Radio.
- Yeah, you got your radio. Come on.
824
01:05:29,650 --> 01:05:31,400
- That you, Newdall?
- Yeah.
825
01:05:31,610 --> 01:05:33,530
We got a sandwich if you're hungry.
826
01:05:34,910 --> 01:05:38,710
- You see how much they paying Dr. J.?
- How much?
827
01:05:39,830 --> 01:05:42,540
You're making this harder
than it has to be, son.
828
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:45,510
Can't be for one season.
829
01:05:45,710 --> 01:05:49,590
Ain't nobody makes a half a million
dollars for playing basketball one year.
830
01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:53,890
- Who you got back there, Kojak?
- I'm not sure. Won't tell me his name.
831
01:05:54,380 --> 01:05:57,090
He ain't been here a week,
got himself a John Doe.
832
01:05:57,430 --> 01:05:59,060
Let's go see who it is.
833
01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:03,270
When was the last time we had
anybody here on Christmas?
834
01:06:03,480 --> 01:06:05,150
I don't know.
835
01:06:05,850 --> 01:06:07,640
Oh, shit.
836
01:06:11,780 --> 01:06:13,070
Hey, Radio.
837
01:06:14,110 --> 01:06:16,110
I want to go home.
838
01:06:16,320 --> 01:06:17,990
We're gonna get you out of there.
839
01:06:28,420 --> 01:06:30,090
- That's Dr. J., Radio.
- Dr. J.?
840
01:06:30,500 --> 01:06:33,500
That's a good one.
Did you like that?
841
01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:36,720
Like that right there.
He put the basket.
842
01:06:36,930 --> 01:06:40,890
Well, it's the Doctor's team this year,
no question about it.
843
01:06:41,100 --> 01:06:43,770
- Why don't you wear your hair like that.
- My hair.
844
01:06:43,980 --> 01:06:46,820
Morning, Irv. Hey, Radio.
845
01:06:47,810 --> 01:06:49,890
Oh, hey, Coach Jones.
846
01:06:50,110 --> 01:06:52,530
We're watching Dr. J. there.
847
01:06:52,860 --> 01:06:53,910
Dr. J.
848
01:06:54,110 --> 01:06:56,480
Harold, you meet Officer Newdall yet?
849
01:06:57,450 --> 01:06:59,620
No, I don't believe I have.
850
01:07:10,130 --> 01:07:14,140
I need more presents. I need more.
That's a good one.
851
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:19,090
I'm gonna put this one up here.
Put that right there.
852
01:07:19,300 --> 01:07:20,920
Come on. Come on.
853
01:07:21,140 --> 01:07:23,440
What else down there?
Give me another.
854
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:25,220
Oh, that a good one.
855
01:07:28,140 --> 01:07:31,100
- Morning, there. Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas.
856
01:07:31,310 --> 01:07:33,020
There you go. Here you go.
857
01:07:33,940 --> 01:07:36,810
That's a good one. Give another one.
Give another one.
858
01:07:42,910 --> 01:07:44,620
Hey, Coach Jones.
859
01:07:45,540 --> 01:07:48,210
- Presents all gone.
- I see that.
860
01:07:48,410 --> 01:07:50,950
Brought your buggy home
and got you some food.
861
01:07:51,170 --> 01:07:53,510
- Thought you might be hungry.
- Okay.
862
01:07:58,220 --> 01:08:00,140
So how you doing? All right?
863
01:08:00,340 --> 01:08:01,630
Okay.
864
01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:07,010
Your brother Walter's inside.
He'll stay till your mama gets home.
865
01:08:09,190 --> 01:08:11,030
I like the french fries.
866
01:08:11,650 --> 01:08:14,150
- When do I start school again?
- Real soon.
867
01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:16,860
Miss Winniver will let me in 11th grade,
right?
868
01:08:17,070 --> 01:08:18,320
That's right.
869
01:08:21,110 --> 01:08:24,570
You remember we talked about you
staying close to the teachers.
870
01:08:24,780 --> 01:08:27,530
Don't want you wandering off
on your own.
871
01:08:29,370 --> 01:08:31,660
That was a good thing you did today.
872
01:08:32,920 --> 01:08:35,630
That was a good thing you did today
with the presents.
873
01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:38,220
You didn't do anything wrong.
You understand?
874
01:08:38,420 --> 01:08:40,170
Radio did nothing wrong.
875
01:08:40,380 --> 01:08:42,380
I'm real proud of you.
876
01:08:42,590 --> 01:08:45,170
Proud. Proud of Radio.
877
01:08:51,940 --> 01:08:53,610
- Good morning.
- Hey, Radio.
878
01:08:53,810 --> 01:08:55,140
Come on in.
879
01:08:55,480 --> 01:09:00,730
- Come on, Radio. We gotta go, man.
- Let's go. I'm ready. We ready to go.
880
01:09:01,650 --> 01:09:02,690
Good morning.
881
01:09:02,910 --> 01:09:04,500
- Morning, Radio.
- Morning.
882
01:09:04,700 --> 01:09:07,540
- You have a good Christmas?
- Coach bailed me out of jail.
883
01:09:07,740 --> 01:09:10,490
No running. Stop! No running.
884
01:09:10,710 --> 01:09:12,550
- I'm sorry.
- I'm the hall monitor.
885
01:09:12,750 --> 01:09:14,630
- Oh, but that's okay.
- Thanks, Radio.
886
01:09:14,830 --> 01:09:17,040
Morning. How you doing?
887
01:09:18,380 --> 01:09:19,720
Get your man!
888
01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:23,380
Jump, Jackets, jump! Jump way up!
889
01:09:23,680 --> 01:09:25,180
Outside pass to Clay.
890
01:09:27,050 --> 01:09:30,470
Clay pulls up for a 17-footer. Good!
891
01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:34,220
I'm sorry.
892
01:09:34,440 --> 01:09:36,030
Cover the screen!
893
01:09:36,230 --> 01:09:38,480
The screen! The screen!
894
01:09:38,780 --> 01:09:40,950
You gotta keep Radio on the bench.
895
01:09:41,150 --> 01:09:43,780
Stay on the bench. Stay on the bench.
896
01:09:43,990 --> 01:09:45,370
- Who?
- You.
897
01:09:49,790 --> 01:09:50,960
Bring it up!
898
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:54,590
Take a pick!
899
01:09:54,790 --> 01:09:58,080
Clay working off the pick.
Drives right side.
900
01:09:59,630 --> 01:10:02,300
- No basket! No!
- Offensive foul, Johnny Clay.
901
01:10:02,510 --> 01:10:06,100
- 15 out of control.
- You're killing me. Time-out! Time-out!
902
01:10:06,300 --> 01:10:08,760
Ref! Did you think about that?!
903
01:10:08,970 --> 01:10:10,010
Morning.
904
01:10:10,470 --> 01:10:11,970
- Morning.
- Morning, Radio.
905
01:10:12,180 --> 01:10:14,640
- Morning.
- Morning.
906
01:10:15,850 --> 01:10:18,940
Radio. Where's my hug?
907
01:10:20,610 --> 01:10:22,160
There it is.
908
01:10:22,570 --> 01:10:25,280
- Who'd you catch running in the hall?
- Billy Samson.
909
01:10:25,490 --> 01:10:29,410
Swear, you have turned out
to be quite the hall monitor.
910
01:10:31,580 --> 01:10:32,920
Morning, Hanna.
911
01:10:33,120 --> 01:10:36,740
You know who this is? This is Radio.
912
01:10:37,330 --> 01:10:40,410
Today our menu is Salisbury steak.
913
01:10:40,630 --> 01:10:43,050
- French fries.
- French fri-- Oh, I like them.
914
01:10:43,260 --> 01:10:44,470
Black-eyed peas.
915
01:10:44,670 --> 01:10:47,130
- Black-eye-- We got black-eyed peas?
- We sure do.
916
01:10:47,340 --> 01:10:48,380
We got black-eyed peas.
917
01:10:48,590 --> 01:10:50,840
- Brownies.
- We got brownies.
918
01:10:51,060 --> 01:10:52,480
- Hot rolls.
- We got hot rolls.
919
01:10:52,680 --> 01:10:54,970
- And pear halves.
- And what?
920
01:10:55,180 --> 01:10:57,010
- Pear halves.
- We have pear halves.
921
01:11:12,700 --> 01:11:14,410
- Hey, we'll see you later.
- Yeah.
922
01:11:17,460 --> 01:11:18,880
Hey, yo.
923
01:11:19,420 --> 01:11:20,460
Radio.
924
01:11:20,750 --> 01:11:22,920
- Hey, how you doing?
- What's going on?
925
01:11:23,130 --> 01:11:24,800
Hey, where's Honeycutt at, man?
926
01:11:25,130 --> 01:11:27,000
- Coach Honeycutt, he around?
- He gone.
927
01:11:27,220 --> 01:11:29,100
- He's gone. All right.
- Yeah, he gone.
928
01:11:29,300 --> 01:11:33,720
Coach Dalrymple's got a couple things
next door she wants you to come get.
929
01:11:34,220 --> 01:11:35,260
Mrs. Dalrymple.
930
01:11:35,770 --> 01:11:39,030
Don't worry, it's just her.
She's alone. Girls are gone.
931
01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:41,480
I can't do that.
932
01:11:41,730 --> 01:11:45,190
All right, man. All right,
but she's gonna be real disappointed.
933
01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:47,730
You don't want to let her down, do you?
934
01:11:49,700 --> 01:11:51,660
- Okay, Radio.
- See you.
935
01:12:22,150 --> 01:12:23,570
Mrs. Dalrymple?
936
01:12:28,030 --> 01:12:29,580
Mrs. Dalrymple?
937
01:12:32,780 --> 01:12:34,070
Radio!
938
01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:36,030
You can't be in here.
939
01:12:43,960 --> 01:12:45,750
Bad Radio. Bad Radio.
940
01:12:47,050 --> 01:12:49,100
Coach Jones. Coach Jones.
941
01:12:49,300 --> 01:12:52,810
Coach Jones. No, Radio.
No, Radio. No.
942
01:12:55,300 --> 01:12:59,640
It'd be one thing if you had done
something like this before on your own.
943
01:13:03,350 --> 01:13:05,230
Radio, listen to me.
944
01:13:06,150 --> 01:13:10,070
It's important that you tell me why
you went in the girls' locker room.
945
01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:13,290
- Mrs. Dalrymple needed me.
- What for?
946
01:13:16,450 --> 01:13:19,490
- She wanted me to pick up stuff.
- Did she ask you?
947
01:13:20,250 --> 01:13:22,000
Did she ask you?
948
01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:25,330
- No.
- Who did?
949
01:13:26,290 --> 01:13:27,420
No.
950
01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:31,720
Radio, who asked you to go
in the girls' locker room?
951
01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:35,050
Who asked you?
952
01:13:38,060 --> 01:13:39,350
No.
953
01:13:45,060 --> 01:13:47,390
I don't know what I'm supposed
to do here.
954
01:13:47,610 --> 01:13:49,240
Be mad at Radio.
955
01:13:49,900 --> 01:13:51,690
Be mad at Radio.
956
01:14:01,580 --> 01:14:03,500
You're willing to do that?
957
01:14:03,710 --> 01:14:05,880
Take the blame for someone else?
958
01:14:13,170 --> 01:14:16,420
You're a better man than me.
I'll say that for you.
959
01:14:31,820 --> 01:14:32,990
Hey, Johnny, what's up?
960
01:14:33,190 --> 01:14:35,480
I got a letter last week from Clemson.
961
01:14:35,700 --> 01:14:39,000
They're looking at me for a full ride
after next year.
962
01:14:39,200 --> 01:14:41,610
- That's great.
- Excuse me, gentlemen.
963
01:14:41,830 --> 01:14:44,420
Excuse me. I need to speak
with Mr. Clay.
964
01:14:44,620 --> 01:14:46,580
- See you, Johnny.
- What's up, coach?
965
01:14:46,790 --> 01:14:50,500
It's one of those days I wish I wasn't
a teacher so I could lay into you.
966
01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:52,930
What you talking about?
967
01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:55,170
What's gotten into you?
968
01:14:55,380 --> 01:14:58,710
I thought you'd learned something
the past few months. I was wrong.
969
01:14:58,930 --> 01:15:02,440
- What are you talking about?
- Don't speak unless I tell you to.
970
01:15:05,480 --> 01:15:09,990
You might think you're clear because
Honeycutt was gone, but this is my call.
971
01:15:12,020 --> 01:15:15,110
There's no way you're suiting up
tomorrow night.
972
01:15:16,450 --> 01:15:17,620
Right.
973
01:15:18,410 --> 01:15:22,210
- What did you say?
- Coach Jones. Mr. Clay.
974
01:15:22,450 --> 01:15:25,280
- What seems to be the problem?
- You hear the problem.
975
01:15:25,870 --> 01:15:29,750
Young man, students do not tell me
what I do and do not hear.
976
01:15:30,580 --> 01:15:32,120
He said I can't play tomorrow.
977
01:15:33,130 --> 01:15:37,010
- Is that what you're thinking, coach?
- That's what I'm saying.
978
01:15:37,380 --> 01:15:40,800
Well, then, seeing that Coach Jones
is the athletic director...
979
01:15:41,010 --> 01:15:42,760
...I say you are not playing.
980
01:15:42,970 --> 01:15:46,300
Ma'am, this is Westside.
If we win, we're in first place.
981
01:15:46,810 --> 01:15:50,400
That's all the more reason for you
to cheer on your teammates, isn't it?
982
01:15:50,600 --> 01:15:52,310
Anything else?
983
01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:57,730
Yeah, tell your boy that I said thanks.
984
01:15:57,950 --> 01:16:00,160
Radio didn't sell you out, son.
985
01:16:00,700 --> 01:16:03,410
There are plenty of other people
willing to do that.
986
01:16:11,170 --> 01:16:12,800
Yes, sir.
987
01:16:13,710 --> 01:16:16,000
Well, I appreciate
your understanding.
988
01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:19,310
We'll talk soon. Thank you.
989
01:16:23,550 --> 01:16:25,380
That's the last of them.
990
01:16:25,970 --> 01:16:27,300
You talk to Mary Helen yet?
991
01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:30,360
Yeah, she's fine. She knows
it wasn't Radio's idea.
992
01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:31,970
Oh, Harold.
993
01:16:32,190 --> 01:16:35,200
Harold, you are too close
to this.
994
01:16:35,520 --> 01:16:39,150
It's not that Johnny talked Radio into
doing it, it's that he did it.
995
01:16:39,360 --> 01:16:42,030
What if it's something worse
next time?
996
01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:46,040
- He'll know.
- Are you sure?
997
01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:49,420
Hell, I'm already
under a microscope anyway.
998
01:16:49,620 --> 01:16:52,540
I got a school to run, a thousand kids
I'm responsible for.
999
01:16:52,750 --> 01:16:55,000
I need to know
where all this is going.
1000
01:16:55,210 --> 01:16:57,170
I don't know, Lou.
1001
01:16:58,210 --> 01:17:00,380
That may not be
good enough anymore.
1002
01:17:09,480 --> 01:17:13,650
I'm sorry. I've been trying to call, and
I haven't gotten ahold of either of them.
1003
01:17:13,850 --> 01:17:15,980
I tried several different places.
1004
01:17:16,190 --> 01:17:18,690
Here he comes right now.
I'll tell him.
1005
01:17:20,650 --> 01:17:23,650
- What's the matter?
- It's Radio's mama, Daddy.
1006
01:17:23,860 --> 01:17:25,950
- What happened?
- She had a heart attack.
1007
01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:28,080
Oh, no. Is she all right?
1008
01:17:28,990 --> 01:17:30,320
No, she's gone.
1009
01:17:30,910 --> 01:17:35,200
I was trying to call you or Mom,
but I couldn't reach anybody.
1010
01:17:35,420 --> 01:17:39,840
And they're telling me
that he won't come out of his room.
1011
01:17:40,260 --> 01:17:41,800
I don't know what to do, Daddy.
1012
01:17:42,010 --> 01:17:43,890
All right. Put your coat on.
1013
01:17:44,090 --> 01:17:46,880
He's just sitting there in his room.
1014
01:17:47,260 --> 01:17:48,510
You got it?
1015
01:18:02,570 --> 01:18:03,580
Irv.
1016
01:18:03,780 --> 01:18:05,910
Coach, thanks for coming.
1017
01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:08,240
Walter will be here in a few minutes.
1018
01:18:08,450 --> 01:18:11,910
- How's Radio?
- He's pretty upset.
1019
01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:14,370
Tore the place up pretty good too.
1020
01:18:25,970 --> 01:18:27,390
Radio?
1021
01:19:12,180 --> 01:19:14,010
It's just me. It's Coach Jones.
1022
01:19:24,490 --> 01:19:25,950
It's just coach.
1023
01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:27,660
Coach.
1024
01:19:29,410 --> 01:19:32,040
Coach. That's Radio.
1025
01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:33,360
Yeah.
1026
01:19:34,870 --> 01:19:37,620
- That's you.
- Radio right there.
1027
01:19:48,050 --> 01:19:52,510
There's Mama there. Mama said
we got good football this year.
1028
01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:53,760
Yes. Yeah.
1029
01:19:53,970 --> 01:19:56,350
That's what Mama said.
We got good--
1030
01:20:07,860 --> 01:20:11,280
Radio, ain't nothing I can say is
gonna make you feel any better.
1031
01:20:12,910 --> 01:20:14,370
Mama.
1032
01:20:14,580 --> 01:20:17,170
Your mama was a fine,
beautiful woman.
1033
01:20:17,410 --> 01:20:20,080
She loved you with all her heart,
didn't she?
1034
01:20:20,290 --> 01:20:22,700
Oh, boy, did she love you.
1035
01:20:24,880 --> 01:20:27,890
- She still does.
- She love the Radio.
1036
01:20:31,470 --> 01:20:34,690
She said she's always gonna
be there for Radio.
1037
01:20:39,310 --> 01:20:40,610
James...
1038
01:20:42,440 --> 01:20:43,940
...look at me.
1039
01:20:44,900 --> 01:20:46,240
Look at me.
1040
01:20:46,940 --> 01:20:50,440
She will always be there for you.
All right? She will.
1041
01:20:51,200 --> 01:20:52,870
You understand that?
1042
01:20:53,280 --> 01:20:57,030
Always be with you inside,
right in your heart. All right?
1043
01:21:07,750 --> 01:21:09,460
We're gonna be all right.
1044
01:21:11,340 --> 01:21:13,590
All right, boy. Come here. Come here.
1045
01:21:15,300 --> 01:21:17,380
Where's my mama?
1046
01:21:29,650 --> 01:21:31,440
Hold on just a second.
1047
01:21:35,910 --> 01:21:37,710
I want to tell you something.
1048
01:21:40,500 --> 01:21:42,750
Something I never told anybody.
1049
01:21:45,290 --> 01:21:48,580
When I was about 12,
I had a paper route.
1050
01:21:50,710 --> 01:21:52,790
Crack of dawn every day.
1051
01:21:54,970 --> 01:21:58,020
Wasn't many houses
around here then...
1052
01:21:58,220 --> 01:22:00,970
...so I had to cover quite a lot
of territory...
1053
01:22:01,180 --> 01:22:06,230
...and I used to cut through
the woods on this little dirt road.
1054
01:22:06,610 --> 01:22:10,740
And one morning, I was riding
through there...
1055
01:22:10,940 --> 01:22:13,610
...and I heard this noise.
1056
01:22:14,860 --> 01:22:20,200
Sounded like a rabbit or something,
you know, caught in a trap.
1057
01:22:21,120 --> 01:22:25,130
And then I realized it was coming from
one of the houses set back in there.
1058
01:22:27,290 --> 01:22:29,000
I kind of walked over there...
1059
01:22:29,210 --> 01:22:32,880
...and didn't seem like anybody
was home, so I walked on up.
1060
01:22:33,090 --> 01:22:38,260
It had, you know, chicken wire and
barbed wire around the bottom of it.
1061
01:22:38,470 --> 01:22:41,010
I figure to keep the critters out,
you know?
1062
01:22:43,930 --> 01:22:48,640
And then all of the sudden, I saw
these fingers coming through the wire.
1063
01:22:50,270 --> 01:22:52,520
And I put my bike down...
1064
01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:55,910
...and got down
on my hands and knees...
1065
01:22:56,660 --> 01:23:01,580
...and I looked under there,
and there was this boy about my age.
1066
01:23:02,450 --> 01:23:05,950
I don't know what was wrong
with him. Something was.
1067
01:23:06,830 --> 01:23:08,870
They used to keep him under there.
1068
01:23:09,250 --> 01:23:13,210
And I looked right at him.
1069
01:23:14,510 --> 01:23:16,600
He looked back at me.
1070
01:23:19,850 --> 01:23:22,940
We just sat there staring
at each other for a while.
1071
01:23:28,270 --> 01:23:31,520
I ran that route for two years,
Mary Helen.
1072
01:23:38,280 --> 01:23:40,440
And I never did a thing.
1073
01:23:52,960 --> 01:23:55,080
I just wanted you to know that.
1074
01:23:57,300 --> 01:23:58,890
Thanks, Daddy.
1075
01:24:23,910 --> 01:24:26,540
- How long before he comes back?
- I'm hoping tomorrow.
1076
01:24:26,750 --> 01:24:29,000
His brother Walter's moved in
with him.
1077
01:24:29,210 --> 01:24:32,300
Honeycutt says he let loose
on that house pretty good.
1078
01:24:32,830 --> 01:24:35,540
Says he's not the only one
that knows about it either.
1079
01:24:35,750 --> 01:24:37,710
The man had just lost his
mother, Lou.
1080
01:24:37,920 --> 01:24:42,260
I didn't ask why he took a swing at his
wall. I asked you if you knew about it.
1081
01:24:42,510 --> 01:24:44,420
Why are you asking me that?
1082
01:24:48,890 --> 01:24:51,770
Our friend from the board is back.
He wants to see you.
1083
01:24:53,440 --> 01:24:56,610
With his mama gone, it's all different.
Every bit of it.
1084
01:24:59,820 --> 01:25:00,940
Good luck.
1085
01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:08,170
In the last month, how much time
has Mr. Kennedy spent alone?
1086
01:25:09,330 --> 01:25:11,170
During the day at least.
1087
01:25:13,500 --> 01:25:14,870
Mr. Jones.
1088
01:25:15,540 --> 01:25:19,420
Past few weeks? Everybody's been
keeping a pretty steady eye on him.
1089
01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:22,850
So we talking an hour a day?
Or two?
1090
01:25:23,050 --> 01:25:26,050
An hour, maybe.
Well, it could be a half-hour.
1091
01:25:29,020 --> 01:25:30,810
Well, as you may have guessed...
1092
01:25:31,020 --> 01:25:34,690
...the board has received reports of
Mr. Kennedy's inconsistent behavior.
1093
01:25:34,900 --> 01:25:36,780
What kind of reports? From who?
1094
01:25:36,980 --> 01:25:39,100
Reports of resisting arrest...
1095
01:25:39,940 --> 01:25:42,940
...tearing up his home,
barging into the girls' locker room.
1096
01:25:43,160 --> 01:25:44,490
Oh, barging?
1097
01:25:44,820 --> 01:25:49,360
- Who's been feeding you this crap?
- I'm not here to argue with you.
1098
01:25:49,580 --> 01:25:53,460
I'm not arguing. It's a simple question.
Who's been feeding you this crap?
1099
01:25:55,040 --> 01:26:00,170
I ask because those were all instances
in which he wasn't being supervised.
1100
01:26:00,380 --> 01:26:01,420
Says who?
1101
01:26:03,880 --> 01:26:05,170
Says who?
1102
01:26:06,090 --> 01:26:11,430
Bottom line, with Ms. Kennedy gone,
James faces some rough times ahead.
1103
01:26:11,680 --> 01:26:14,890
- To keep him in a school setting--
- Let me tell you something.
1104
01:26:15,100 --> 01:26:17,930
This school is the reason he's doing
as well as he is.
1105
01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:20,980
But to keep him in a school setting--
1106
01:26:21,190 --> 01:26:24,440
You take him out of this school,
you may as well take his life.
1107
01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:30,410
- I've compiled a list of care agencies.
- Oh, I'll bet you have.
1108
01:26:53,850 --> 01:26:56,810
Yes, ma'am, I will take care of it
personally.
1109
01:26:57,020 --> 01:26:58,480
Yes, I will.
1110
01:26:58,980 --> 01:27:00,020
Yes, ma'am.
1111
01:27:03,610 --> 01:27:04,980
Yes, ma'am.
1112
01:27:05,570 --> 01:27:07,110
Is that a fact?
1113
01:27:08,910 --> 01:27:10,870
That's some serious money.
1114
01:27:11,160 --> 01:27:13,670
Well, all right. Yes, I will.
1115
01:27:14,160 --> 01:27:15,660
All right, now, you too.
1116
01:27:18,120 --> 01:27:19,910
- Harold.
- Hello, Frank.
1117
01:27:20,130 --> 01:27:24,090
- It's been ages since you were here.
- Yeah, it sure has been.
1118
01:27:30,220 --> 01:27:31,340
So...
1119
01:27:32,850 --> 01:27:35,560
- ...what can I do for you?
- What are you trying to do?
1120
01:27:36,020 --> 01:27:37,820
I'm afraid I don't understand.
1121
01:27:38,020 --> 01:27:42,200
Yeah, you do. Calling the school board,
making complaints about Radio.
1122
01:27:42,860 --> 01:27:46,070
This is you getting back at me
for cracking down on your boy.
1123
01:27:46,280 --> 01:27:49,200
Now, let's not go off making this
all personal.
1124
01:27:49,410 --> 01:27:52,460
- It is personal.
- It's not. Besides which, if it was...
1125
01:27:52,660 --> 01:27:56,040
...most of the guys at Del and Don's
wouldn't feel the way I do.
1126
01:27:57,000 --> 01:27:58,550
Yeah, what way is that?
1127
01:28:00,540 --> 01:28:03,250
You're one of the finest coaches
in the upstate.
1128
01:28:03,460 --> 01:28:06,840
And with Johnny and the boys
we got coming back next year...
1129
01:28:08,220 --> 01:28:12,180
...it's just better if we do things
the way we used to.
1130
01:28:14,220 --> 01:28:17,260
You just want to be the one
runs Radio out of Hanna.
1131
01:28:22,980 --> 01:28:25,350
At least I know where you stand.
1132
01:28:27,990 --> 01:28:30,080
Radio. That's the O.
1133
01:28:30,280 --> 01:28:33,570
Big, round circle.
Yeah, you try it now.
1134
01:28:34,910 --> 01:28:37,570
Come on, it's all right. It's okay.
1135
01:28:37,910 --> 01:28:39,830
There you go, take the pencil.
1136
01:28:41,750 --> 01:28:43,910
You can do it, I know you can.
1137
01:28:45,670 --> 01:28:46,710
That's it.
1138
01:28:59,390 --> 01:29:00,430
There.
1139
01:29:01,650 --> 01:29:04,240
Look at that. You did it.
1140
01:29:04,940 --> 01:29:08,060
Congratulations. Good job.
1141
01:29:08,280 --> 01:29:11,280
Radio right there. Radio right there.
1142
01:29:18,370 --> 01:29:21,870
- Hey, look who's back.
- What's up, Jimmy?
1143
01:29:24,290 --> 01:29:26,290
Johnny, welcome back, man.
1144
01:29:27,590 --> 01:29:28,760
What's this?
1145
01:29:28,960 --> 01:29:31,290
He brought that in a little while ago.
1146
01:30:03,040 --> 01:30:06,210
Sorry Coach Jones got mad at you.
1147
01:30:06,420 --> 01:30:08,380
He got real mad.
1148
01:30:12,800 --> 01:30:14,260
Yeah, he did.
1149
01:30:14,680 --> 01:30:17,520
Yeah. Real mad.
1150
01:30:28,770 --> 01:30:31,690
Jackets playing tough D.
And there's a steal by Walker!
1151
01:30:32,440 --> 01:30:35,610
Honeycutt calling the play
as the Jackets walk it up the floor.
1152
01:30:35,860 --> 01:30:36,990
Two!
1153
01:30:38,370 --> 01:30:41,960
Jackson has it in the corner.
Finds Clay, who drives foul line!
1154
01:30:42,160 --> 01:30:45,530
Great pass to Cunningham.
Underneath for an easy 2.
1155
01:30:46,830 --> 01:30:48,200
All right!
1156
01:30:48,540 --> 01:30:51,080
Johnny Clay, doing it all tonight.
1157
01:30:51,300 --> 01:30:53,720
Down the floor, up the score!
We want 2!
1158
01:30:54,380 --> 01:30:55,540
Now Clay from deep.
1159
01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:02,050
Good!
1160
01:31:09,020 --> 01:31:11,730
Johnny Clay has 17 points.
1161
01:31:12,070 --> 01:31:17,410
And that's the end of the first half
with the score: Hanna, 39, Easley, 34.
1162
01:31:18,240 --> 01:31:22,330
That's a good first half, boys.
That's a good first half.
1163
01:31:24,040 --> 01:31:26,800
You gonna stick around?
Save my seat.
1164
01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:29,590
- All right, bring me a drink, will you?
- Yep.
1165
01:31:32,170 --> 01:31:34,580
I talked to Mr. Tucker
and his colleagues...
1166
01:31:34,800 --> 01:31:38,850
...and we all agreed that we should
get together and have a meeting.
1167
01:31:39,050 --> 01:31:41,170
Well, I don't want to talk about him.
1168
01:31:43,390 --> 01:31:44,600
Harold.
1169
01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:48,010
I know what you're thinking.
1170
01:31:48,230 --> 01:31:52,070
- I thought we were together on this.
- I must find the best possible solution.
1171
01:31:52,270 --> 01:31:55,020
- It's not about who--
- What is it about?
1172
01:31:58,990 --> 01:32:01,450
You remember asking me
where all this was going?
1173
01:32:02,620 --> 01:32:03,830
Do you?
1174
01:32:05,290 --> 01:32:06,750
I still don't know.
1175
01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:11,880
But I do know this. I won't sit back and
let Frank Clay make the rules on this.
1176
01:32:17,510 --> 01:32:19,640
Clay saves it off the tip.
1177
01:32:20,180 --> 01:32:21,770
Underneath to Henry.
1178
01:32:21,970 --> 01:32:25,140
Great teamwork! And the Jackets
go up by 7.
1179
01:32:27,310 --> 01:32:30,650
Clay off the screen. Jumper!
Good!
1180
01:32:35,980 --> 01:32:38,310
Johnny Clay in the zone now.
1181
01:32:39,070 --> 01:32:43,030
Easley working the ball upcourt.
And Clay with the steal.
1182
01:32:43,410 --> 01:32:47,170
Great pass by Clay to Greer
for the easy 2.
1183
01:32:47,410 --> 01:32:50,990
And the Jackets are running away
with this one.
1184
01:32:56,000 --> 01:32:58,840
Feels good, don't it? Feels real good.
1185
01:32:59,090 --> 01:33:01,460
Settle down, settle down, settle down.
1186
01:33:01,680 --> 01:33:04,680
Now, I've coached a lot of basketball
over the years.
1187
01:33:04,890 --> 01:33:08,150
But I've never had a team play better
than you all did tonight.
1188
01:33:11,390 --> 01:33:13,980
Johnny Clay, it's nice having you back.
1189
01:33:14,190 --> 01:33:15,900
- Yeah, it is.
- It's good to be back.
1190
01:33:16,110 --> 01:33:17,360
Good. Good.
1191
01:33:17,570 --> 01:33:21,280
We're still in this race, so rest up
tomorrow. We'll hit it hard Monday.
1192
01:33:21,490 --> 01:33:23,410
All right? Get some sleep.
1193
01:33:25,580 --> 01:33:27,710
- Play him, you got a shot.
- Believe it.
1194
01:33:27,910 --> 01:33:30,370
- There's my boy.
- Always a pleasure to see you.
1195
01:33:30,660 --> 01:33:32,580
- Good game, son.
- Thirty-two.
1196
01:33:32,790 --> 01:33:34,200
What's with all the passing?
1197
01:33:34,420 --> 01:33:37,760
With the defense they were playing,
you could have gone for 50.
1198
01:33:38,170 --> 01:33:40,840
You gotta take advantage
of these chances, son.
1199
01:33:41,050 --> 01:33:42,680
- Bye, everybody.
- See you, Radio.
1200
01:33:42,880 --> 01:33:44,800
Bye, Johnny. Bye, now.
See you later.
1201
01:33:45,010 --> 01:33:46,470
What's that?
1202
01:33:49,310 --> 01:33:50,560
It's nothing.
1203
01:33:51,230 --> 01:33:55,570
Look, son, we got a whole lot
to look forward to next year.
1204
01:33:55,810 --> 01:33:59,900
And I don't want anything or anyone
getting in the way. You understand?
1205
01:34:01,570 --> 01:34:04,330
Radio's not the one getting
in the way, Dad.
1206
01:34:11,580 --> 01:34:16,420
That Frank, he's just scared
you got it in for his son, is all.
1207
01:34:16,710 --> 01:34:19,010
When Gloria was a baby,
I never left her alone.
1208
01:34:19,210 --> 01:34:21,750
Wherever I went, I made sure
Edith stayed with her.
1209
01:34:24,050 --> 01:34:26,420
I forgot to tell you Honeycutt called.
1210
01:34:26,680 --> 01:34:31,270
Yeah, some of the parents asked for
a meeting with Lou on Sunday night.
1211
01:34:32,430 --> 01:34:33,680
Just Lou?
1212
01:34:33,890 --> 01:34:37,890
Yeah, I don't think they're interested
in your side of things, do you?
1213
01:34:38,440 --> 01:34:40,030
No, I guess not.
1214
01:34:43,240 --> 01:34:45,410
What the hell kind of a father--?
1215
01:34:45,610 --> 01:34:48,110
What the hell kind of a father
are you?
1216
01:34:48,780 --> 01:34:52,240
Hell. Maybe the whole thing's
just a big mistake.
1217
01:34:52,450 --> 01:34:55,870
Radio would've been better off
if we'd just gotten him some help.
1218
01:34:56,250 --> 01:34:59,880
Help? And what you've been
giving him has been...?
1219
01:35:00,340 --> 01:35:02,760
Couldn't have been easy
on you and Mary Helen...
1220
01:35:02,960 --> 01:35:05,590
...me spending all this time
with Radio.
1221
01:35:05,800 --> 01:35:07,470
Harold, wait.
1222
01:35:07,680 --> 01:35:11,350
You can't believe that's been
a mistake, you being with Radio.
1223
01:35:13,310 --> 01:35:17,320
- You've been so great for each other.
- Yeah, well, look where it's got us.
1224
01:35:17,520 --> 01:35:20,940
Where it got you is a school
full of kids that love him.
1225
01:35:21,150 --> 01:35:22,910
And Mary Helen feels the same way.
1226
01:35:23,110 --> 01:35:27,160
And anything that Frank can do or say
won't change anything.
1227
01:35:29,030 --> 01:35:31,740
It's never a mistake to care
for someone.
1228
01:35:31,950 --> 01:35:34,160
That's always a good thing.
1229
01:35:35,830 --> 01:35:37,000
Right?
1230
01:35:41,670 --> 01:35:43,470
- Thank you, Reverend.
- God bless you.
1231
01:35:43,670 --> 01:35:45,960
God bless you.
That was quite a sermon.
1232
01:35:46,170 --> 01:35:48,130
Indeed. Praise the Lord.
1233
01:35:49,340 --> 01:35:51,470
- God bless you, Radio.
- Praise the Lord.
1234
01:35:51,680 --> 01:35:52,940
- Coach.
- Praise the Lord.
1235
01:35:53,140 --> 01:35:54,730
I love that sermon.
I like that.
1236
01:35:54,930 --> 01:35:56,430
All hands are Jesus' hands
1237
01:35:56,640 --> 01:35:59,930
I like that.
I like the way everybody singing.
1238
01:36:00,150 --> 01:36:03,150
Yeah, that was a nice service.
A nice service.
1239
01:36:03,360 --> 01:36:06,370
I need to talk to you
about a little something here.
1240
01:36:07,450 --> 01:36:11,000
You remember telling me
about being in 11th grade?
1241
01:36:11,200 --> 01:36:14,460
You talking about Mrs. Winniver.
Yeah, I like Mrs. Winniver.
1242
01:36:14,660 --> 01:36:18,580
There's been some talk about
maybe you going on to 12th grade.
1243
01:36:18,790 --> 01:36:22,410
That'd be something, wouldn't it?
You know, have you graduate.
1244
01:36:24,050 --> 01:36:25,510
Radio, listen to me.
1245
01:36:25,710 --> 01:36:27,540
Put your-- Take your radio d--
1246
01:36:27,760 --> 01:36:31,140
Radio, put your radio down.
Look at me. Look at me.
1247
01:36:31,340 --> 01:36:35,300
There's nothing wrong with moving on.
Everybody gets to it eventually.
1248
01:36:35,680 --> 01:36:40,520
No. No, I like the 11th grade.
I like the 11th grade.
1249
01:36:40,730 --> 01:36:41,900
No. No.
1250
01:36:42,150 --> 01:36:44,700
I do the menu in the morning.
1251
01:36:44,900 --> 01:36:48,200
I say, "We're gonna have
hamburgers and mashed potatoes."
1252
01:36:48,400 --> 01:36:51,650
And then I see people in the hallway,
I say, "Hey. No running.
1253
01:36:51,860 --> 01:36:54,990
Everybody, no running." Everybody
know that's Radio. I'm there.
1254
01:36:55,200 --> 01:36:58,240
Everybody like that.
They say, "Hi, Radio!"
1255
01:36:58,450 --> 01:37:02,200
All right, listen. We'll talk about it
when we get closer to the fall.
1256
01:37:02,420 --> 01:37:05,010
Let's not worry about it right now.
1257
01:37:05,210 --> 01:37:07,920
Radio like the fall.
That's when football come.
1258
01:37:08,170 --> 01:37:11,500
It's football. We'll exercise,
and everybody have T-shirts on.
1259
01:37:11,720 --> 01:37:15,600
And Coach Honeycutt, he be,
"Let's see some Hanna spirit!"
1260
01:37:15,810 --> 01:37:18,600
Yeah. Hey, coach, you say,
"Let's get the quarterback."
1261
01:37:18,850 --> 01:37:22,390
And Radio, he defense coach.
I'll be defense coach.
1262
01:37:22,600 --> 01:37:24,850
That's right. We'll go all the way.
1263
01:37:25,060 --> 01:37:28,400
- That's right, Radio.
- We gonna go all of the way.
1264
01:37:28,610 --> 01:37:31,280
Because we got the spirit.
1265
01:37:39,250 --> 01:37:43,250
We gonna go all the way.
We gonna go all the way.
1266
01:37:44,960 --> 01:37:48,590
This man is a disruptive force
in our community...
1267
01:37:48,800 --> 01:37:51,470
...and represents a threat
to our students.
1268
01:37:52,300 --> 01:37:53,420
Thank you, Mr. Clay.
1269
01:37:53,630 --> 01:37:57,970
Okay, Okay. I understand how
some of you might be feeling.
1270
01:37:58,220 --> 01:38:02,970
All I am asking is that if we decide
that there's no other way around this...
1271
01:38:03,190 --> 01:38:05,740
...that we dole out as little hurt
as possible.
1272
01:38:05,940 --> 01:38:08,990
Fine. Honeycutt, is there anything
you'd like to add?
1273
01:38:14,570 --> 01:38:17,490
- Evening, Del. Don.
- Harold.
1274
01:38:17,700 --> 01:38:20,030
- Evening, everyone.
- Evening.
1275
01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:24,340
Hi, Lou.
1276
01:38:25,040 --> 01:38:26,950
- How you doing?
- I'm good. I'm good.
1277
01:38:27,170 --> 01:38:29,220
- How are you?
- Good.
1278
01:38:29,920 --> 01:38:32,000
I was gonna call you.
1279
01:38:33,130 --> 01:38:36,670
- You got a crowded shop tonight, Del.
- Yeah, coach.
1280
01:38:36,890 --> 01:38:40,690
I think y'all know my wife, Linda,
and my daughter, Mary Helen.
1281
01:38:42,680 --> 01:38:43,930
- Evening.
- Evening, ma'am.
1282
01:38:45,270 --> 01:38:48,650
Well, I had a talk with Radio
this morning.
1283
01:38:49,520 --> 01:38:54,440
I told him, in not so many words, that
we might be looking at some changes.
1284
01:38:55,360 --> 01:38:57,650
It didn't take long to see
the more I talked...
1285
01:38:57,870 --> 01:38:59,870
...the more he didn't understand me.
1286
01:39:00,950 --> 01:39:03,200
We got a lot of that going on around.
1287
01:39:09,130 --> 01:39:11,300
When I was playing, I had a coach...
1288
01:39:11,630 --> 01:39:14,390
...he used to tell me to keep
my priorities straight.
1289
01:39:15,220 --> 01:39:17,600
He'd say, "Son, you figure out
what's important.
1290
01:39:17,800 --> 01:39:20,170
You push everything else aside."
1291
01:39:24,770 --> 01:39:26,480
I love football.
1292
01:39:28,440 --> 01:39:30,190
I love everything about it.
1293
01:39:31,900 --> 01:39:34,200
I love Friday nights when
you look for a win...
1294
01:39:34,400 --> 01:39:37,070
...and Saturday morning
when you found one.
1295
01:39:41,660 --> 01:39:44,920
But that's not what's important
right now.
1296
01:39:47,080 --> 01:39:50,410
We got ourselves a young man
we're not thinking about.
1297
01:39:52,460 --> 01:39:55,790
The same young man who could
hardly talk when we first met him...
1298
01:39:56,010 --> 01:39:58,930
...and now he's making
announcements over the loudspeaker.
1299
01:40:01,260 --> 01:40:04,340
Same young man who got himself
a football letter last fall...
1300
01:40:04,560 --> 01:40:07,610
...but never wears it, because
he can't afford a jacket.
1301
01:40:10,860 --> 01:40:12,740
Now we're asking him to leave.
1302
01:40:12,940 --> 01:40:15,940
- Harold, we are not asking--
- The man's not done, Frank.
1303
01:40:19,450 --> 01:40:22,830
I know some of you don't know
or don't care...
1304
01:40:23,030 --> 01:40:26,620
...about all that Radio's learned
over these past few months.
1305
01:40:28,790 --> 01:40:30,170
Well, the truth is...
1306
01:40:30,960 --> 01:40:33,630
...we're not the ones
who've been teaching Radio.
1307
01:40:35,670 --> 01:40:37,960
Radio's the one been teaching us.
1308
01:40:41,260 --> 01:40:43,090
The way he treats us all the time...
1309
01:40:43,300 --> 01:40:46,720
...is the way we wish we treated
each other even part of the time.
1310
01:40:50,440 --> 01:40:55,030
I know something's gotta happen here.
I know some changes gotta be made.
1311
01:40:57,070 --> 01:41:01,490
And I know I can't let what happened
last season happen again.
1312
01:41:05,580 --> 01:41:08,330
So I've decided to step down
as head football coach.
1313
01:41:20,170 --> 01:41:22,130
See what you've done, Frank.
1314
01:41:26,350 --> 01:41:28,980
I'd like to keep teaching,
if that's all right.
1315
01:41:29,640 --> 01:41:33,180
I'll keep an eye on Radio,
make sure he stays out of trouble.
1316
01:41:33,980 --> 01:41:35,650
And I'd like to spend more time...
1317
01:41:35,860 --> 01:41:38,860
...with a few other folks
I've neglected over the years...
1318
01:41:39,190 --> 01:41:41,190
...while I still have a chance to.
1319
01:41:45,200 --> 01:41:50,380
Much as I love this game, it's not
half as important as setting that right.
1320
01:41:54,790 --> 01:41:56,540
That was a pretty good cup, Del.
1321
01:41:58,960 --> 01:42:00,880
- Thank y'all.
- Good night.
1322
01:42:07,970 --> 01:42:09,680
This what you wanted?
1323
01:42:09,890 --> 01:42:11,390
Is this worth it?
1324
01:42:15,350 --> 01:42:18,560
- That was a crazy idea.
- Weren't expecting that, were you?
1325
01:42:18,820 --> 01:42:22,120
I can't believe you're gonna stop
coaching football.
1326
01:42:24,610 --> 01:42:26,900
3 MONTHS LATER
1327
01:42:29,160 --> 01:42:33,410
Found it. Under the mattress
with everything else.
1328
01:42:34,000 --> 01:42:35,340
All right.
1329
01:42:36,500 --> 01:42:39,120
You look great, Radio.
1330
01:42:39,340 --> 01:42:40,340
Thanks, Mary Helen.
1331
01:42:40,550 --> 01:42:42,300
- I'll see you out there.
- All right.
1332
01:42:42,510 --> 01:42:44,310
- There she go.
- Get your collar down.
1333
01:42:44,510 --> 01:42:46,850
You look good, now.
You look really good.
1334
01:42:47,050 --> 01:42:48,670
You know where we'll be, right?
1335
01:42:48,890 --> 01:42:49,940
All right.
1336
01:42:50,140 --> 01:42:53,560
- Do a good job. I'm awful proud of you.
- Okay, coach.
1337
01:42:53,770 --> 01:42:55,730
- There I go.
- Hey, Radio.
1338
01:42:56,650 --> 01:42:58,740
Oh, hey, Johnny, how you doing?
1339
01:42:59,060 --> 01:43:02,730
- I heard you got yourself a letter.
- Yeah, they gave me a letter.
1340
01:43:02,990 --> 01:43:06,450
Me and the boys thought you might
need something to put it on.
1341
01:43:08,240 --> 01:43:10,400
- That for Radio?
- Yeah.
1342
01:43:15,580 --> 01:43:18,040
- How you like that one?
- Looks good on you, man.
1343
01:43:18,250 --> 01:43:21,040
Thanks, Johnny. Thanks, Johnny.
1344
01:43:22,630 --> 01:43:25,500
Hey, congratulations, man...
1345
01:43:26,590 --> 01:43:27,840
...and thanks a lot.
1346
01:43:28,050 --> 01:43:30,630
Patricia Ann Yearwood.
1347
01:43:33,560 --> 01:43:35,820
Thanks, Radio. You're the best.
1348
01:43:36,730 --> 01:43:37,940
Thank you.
1349
01:43:38,150 --> 01:43:42,570
I would also like to extend
a special thank-you...
1350
01:43:42,780 --> 01:43:45,280
...to our honorary graduate...
1351
01:43:45,490 --> 01:43:48,740
...Mr. James Robert Kennedy.
1352
01:43:54,290 --> 01:43:56,000
Yeah, Radio! All right!
1353
01:43:56,210 --> 01:44:00,170
Who has decided to return
this coming fall...
1354
01:44:00,380 --> 01:44:03,800
...as an 11th-grade student
at Hanna...
1355
01:44:04,000 --> 01:44:09,090
...where he will be welcome for
as many such years as he so chooses.
1356
01:44:13,810 --> 01:44:16,810
- You got your assistant coach back.
- Yes, we did.
1357
01:44:19,730 --> 01:44:21,860
In that moment,
my husband was prouder...
1358
01:44:22,060 --> 01:44:25,020
...than if his team had won
a state title.
1359
01:44:29,530 --> 01:44:32,780
Radio was now officially
a part of Hanna...
1360
01:44:32,990 --> 01:44:35,320
...and a part of our lives forever.
1361
01:44:37,370 --> 01:44:38,950
HANNA HIGH SCHOOL
26 years later
1362
01:44:39,160 --> 01:44:42,750
So if you're ever in Anderson on
a Friday in the fall, get there early.
1363
01:44:42,960 --> 01:44:45,120
You'll see the man
they call Radio...
1364
01:44:45,340 --> 01:44:48,220
...leading the Yellow Jackets
onto the field.
1365
01:44:48,670 --> 01:44:50,550
Radio's in his 50s now...
1366
01:44:50,760 --> 01:44:54,770
...and he's the most beloved coach
Hanna's ever had.
1367
01:44:55,350 --> 01:44:57,060
Coach Harold Jones.
1368
01:44:57,270 --> 01:44:58,310
Harold Jones?
1369
01:44:58,520 --> 01:45:03,190
He was recently inducted into the
South Carolina Coaches Hall of Fame.
1370
01:45:03,400 --> 01:45:07,530
He's retired from teaching but still
maintains his special friendship...
1371
01:45:07,740 --> 01:45:10,740
...with Hanna's favorite 11th-grader.
1372
01:45:20,250 --> 01:45:24,550
Ready? Ready! Set!
1373
01:45:29,090 --> 01:45:30,800
Touchdown!
