1
00:03:19,282 --> 00:03:21,364
- Go, Green!
- Boo!
2
00:03:28,917 --> 00:03:32,455
Come on, Eagles! You're killing me.
Show some pride out there.
3
00:03:32,504 --> 00:03:34,836
Some pride?
What are you talking about?
4
00:03:34,923 --> 00:03:36,584
These guys lost their pride
two months ago.
5
00:03:36,633 --> 00:03:37,714
What're you doing? Over!
6
00:03:37,801 --> 00:03:40,543
- They're still our boys, Tommy.
- Not this year, pally.
7
00:03:40,637 --> 00:03:43,174
Not in this town. Not in this town!
8
00:03:43,265 --> 00:03:45,302
- Stupid...
- You stink!
9
00:03:46,017 --> 00:03:48,133
Come on! Come on! Come on!
10
00:03:48,270 --> 00:03:49,476
Ball down.
11
00:03:49,521 --> 00:03:52,639
Hey, way to pack it in, Eagles!
You're quitters!
12
00:03:52,691 --> 00:03:56,650
31-0 to a team
should've been worse than us!
13
00:03:57,654 --> 00:03:59,315
What a bunch of losers!
14
00:04:00,741 --> 00:04:03,324
Hey! Hey!
Where do you think you's going, huh?
15
00:04:03,410 --> 00:04:04,900
Game's not over yet.
16
00:04:05,454 --> 00:04:07,570
Get back down to your seats, there.
17
00:04:10,917 --> 00:04:12,157
Believe this?
18
00:04:13,670 --> 00:04:14,751
McCormack.
19
00:04:14,838 --> 00:04:20,004
You know what NFL stands for?
"Not for long," pal. "Not for long."
20
00:04:20,469 --> 00:04:22,551
See you on the unemployment line.
21
00:04:22,637 --> 00:04:27,177
Hey, coach! Thanks for the three wins!
You're a bum!
22
00:04:27,601 --> 00:04:28,966
A reminder, Eagles fans,
23
00:04:29,019 --> 00:04:30,726
to place your orders
for next year's season tickets.
24
00:04:31,897 --> 00:04:32,978
Come on!
25
00:04:34,191 --> 00:04:36,057
Maybe next year, yeah?
26
00:04:37,194 --> 00:04:38,309
Yeah.
27
00:04:38,945 --> 00:04:41,277
Maybe we'll all be millionaires.
28
00:04:44,868 --> 00:04:48,156
Way to finish, guys.
Waited a whole season for this.
29
00:04:50,707 --> 00:04:53,369
- The worst team in the league!
- Losers!
30
00:04:55,212 --> 00:04:56,327
Go! Go!
31
00:04:56,379 --> 00:04:58,086
- Watch it. Watch out.
- Go! Go! Go!
32
00:04:58,173 --> 00:04:59,254
Watch out!
33
00:05:03,386 --> 00:05:05,172
- Jeez, Pete.
- Hey, ref, you better make that call.
34
00:05:06,389 --> 00:05:07,424
You all right?
35
00:05:11,394 --> 00:05:12,384
Hey!
36
00:05:12,521 --> 00:05:13,727
That's enough!
37
00:05:13,814 --> 00:05:14,975
- I said, come on!
- Come on.
38
00:05:15,065 --> 00:05:16,351
- Pete!
- Yeah!
39
00:05:18,235 --> 00:05:19,691
- Come on.
- You!
40
00:05:21,321 --> 00:05:22,402
I'm gonna kill that guy.
41
00:05:22,447 --> 00:05:24,814
Why don't you try
getting by him first, Pete?
42
00:05:24,908 --> 00:05:26,239
Why don't you shut your mouth?
43
00:05:26,326 --> 00:05:27,942
- Huddle up!
- Come on!
44
00:05:28,036 --> 00:05:29,071
Hey, get in the huddle.
45
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,235
Look who decided to show.
46
00:05:30,288 --> 00:05:32,029
Let's go.
Huddle up! Huddle up!
47
00:05:32,082 --> 00:05:33,914
- Vincent!
- Yo, wait a minute.
48
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,038
No way! Not him.
You don't show on time, you don't play!
49
00:05:37,087 --> 00:05:38,122
What's the matter, cuz?
50
00:05:38,213 --> 00:05:39,954
Afraid he's gonna
run all over you again?
51
00:05:40,048 --> 00:05:42,585
Would you shut up?
Let's play some football.
52
00:05:44,052 --> 00:05:45,292
What's up?
53
00:05:45,512 --> 00:05:47,970
- About time you got here.
- Sorry, guys.
54
00:05:48,723 --> 00:05:52,682
All right, let's do the one where Vince
kind of runs by everybody on one.
55
00:05:52,894 --> 00:05:53,929
- Ready?
- Here we go.
56
00:05:53,979 --> 00:05:55,185
Break!
57
00:05:56,022 --> 00:05:57,057
- Ready?
- Break!
58
00:05:57,107 --> 00:06:00,350
- Wanna tell me why you're late?
- My car's in a bad mood.
59
00:06:04,447 --> 00:06:06,063
- Watch the middle.
- Set!
60
00:06:06,491 --> 00:06:08,277
- Hut!
- Go! Go!
61
00:06:08,368 --> 00:06:09,984
Here we go! Here we go!
62
00:06:11,496 --> 00:06:13,453
- Here we go.
- Get him! Get him!
63
00:06:15,584 --> 00:06:17,291
Good hit. Yeah! Good hit.
64
00:06:17,752 --> 00:06:19,459
- You okay?
- Yeah, I'm good.
65
00:06:22,048 --> 00:06:23,459
Set! Hut!
66
00:06:28,513 --> 00:06:30,049
Fumble, fumble, fumble!
67
00:06:30,140 --> 00:06:32,222
I got it!
I got it! Yeah!
68
00:06:32,309 --> 00:06:33,799
- Break!
- Break!
69
00:06:34,728 --> 00:06:37,846
- I got one! I got one! I got one!
- You ain't got nothing.
70
00:06:43,737 --> 00:06:45,569
Set! Hut!
71
00:06:47,282 --> 00:06:49,819
Look out, Matt!
Come on, look out!
72
00:07:02,339 --> 00:07:03,420
Hut!
73
00:07:04,799 --> 00:07:06,164
Go, go!
74
00:07:08,178 --> 00:07:09,668
- Move it!
- Move! Move!
75
00:07:10,555 --> 00:07:11,886
Ball! Ball! Ball!
76
00:07:11,973 --> 00:07:13,429
I got it! I got it!
77
00:07:22,025 --> 00:07:23,982
- You all right?
- I'm all right.
78
00:07:24,069 --> 00:07:26,060
- Nice save, Vince.
- Thanks, man.
79
00:07:26,279 --> 00:07:27,360
Game over!
80
00:07:29,366 --> 00:07:30,902
Oh, man, my car!
81
00:07:31,368 --> 00:07:32,403
Oh, yeah, huh?
82
00:07:33,620 --> 00:07:34,701
Pete!
83
00:07:34,746 --> 00:07:35,861
Right there, huh?
Remember that? Come on!
84
00:07:35,956 --> 00:07:37,367
- Pete, come on, cut it out.
- Did you see that?
85
00:07:38,667 --> 00:07:39,953
- We won.
- Come on, let's go.
86
00:07:40,043 --> 00:07:41,374
- You got money?
- Yeah.
87
00:07:41,419 --> 00:07:42,955
You better have money.
88
00:07:44,631 --> 00:07:45,712
Yeah!
89
00:07:49,344 --> 00:07:51,551
You look cold.
Come a little closer.
90
00:08:04,734 --> 00:08:05,849
Hey.
91
00:08:11,908 --> 00:08:14,149
Come on, it was only for a few plays.
92
00:08:14,411 --> 00:08:15,901
That's great, Vince.
93
00:08:16,329 --> 00:08:18,866
We're out of work
and you're playing games.
94
00:08:19,082 --> 00:08:21,619
It's not like you couldn't use the time
for anything else, right?
95
00:08:21,710 --> 00:08:23,576
- Look, we're not out of work.
- Please.
96
00:08:23,670 --> 00:08:26,503
The school's giving you, what,
two days a week substitute teaching?
97
00:08:26,589 --> 00:08:27,954
You tend bar at night.
98
00:08:28,049 --> 00:08:31,007
What do you call that?
Gainfully employed?
99
00:08:31,636 --> 00:08:33,377
What do you want me to do?
100
00:08:38,476 --> 00:08:41,935
Look, things are gonna get better,
all right? I promise.
101
00:08:42,022 --> 00:08:45,185
When, Vince?
When are things gonna get better?
102
00:09:08,590 --> 00:09:10,331
- Hi, Mr. Papale.
- Hi.
103
00:09:13,136 --> 00:09:15,969
So, the assignment was first act,
Romeo and Juliet.
104
00:09:16,306 --> 00:09:18,422
Oh, Mr. Papale. May I help you?
105
00:09:19,434 --> 00:09:22,643
I'm sorry. Must be a mistake.
I thought this was my class.
106
00:09:24,481 --> 00:09:25,971
Hey, Mr. Papale.
107
00:09:27,442 --> 00:09:28,477
Hey, guys.
108
00:09:28,651 --> 00:09:31,734
Mr. Papale.
Can I have a word with you, please?
109
00:09:33,031 --> 00:09:34,817
We were trying to call you.
110
00:09:34,908 --> 00:09:37,525
Well, there was a mix-up with the bill
and they shut my phone off,
111
00:09:37,619 --> 00:09:39,360
but it should be back on today.
112
00:09:39,454 --> 00:09:43,413
We were calling you to let you know
that you won't be needed this summer.
113
00:09:43,583 --> 00:09:46,541
The district is forcing us
to make more cutbacks.
114
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,163
And we have a lot of teachers
with more seniority than you.
115
00:09:51,674 --> 00:09:53,005
I'm sorry.
116
00:09:53,551 --> 00:09:55,508
I know it's a hell of a deal.
117
00:10:07,565 --> 00:10:09,602
Well, it's no secret
to anybody here
118
00:10:09,692 --> 00:10:12,400
that it's been a rough stretch
for the Eagles organization.
119
00:10:12,487 --> 00:10:14,774
The last few seasons
haven't lived up to my expectations
120
00:10:14,864 --> 00:10:18,277
or to the expectations of the many fans
of this great team.
121
00:10:18,368 --> 00:10:20,951
But, gentlemen,
today, that is going to change.
122
00:10:21,037 --> 00:10:23,449
The man who's gonna bring us back
recently led UCLA
123
00:10:23,540 --> 00:10:25,827
to a Rose Bowl win over Ohio State.
124
00:10:25,875 --> 00:10:27,912
Please welcome Mr. Dick Vermeil.
125
00:10:28,503 --> 00:10:30,710
Thank you, Mr. Tose. Thank you.
126
00:10:33,716 --> 00:10:36,333
Well, I'd like to start by saying
what a tremendous honor it is
127
00:10:36,386 --> 00:10:38,377
to coach this particular football team...
128
00:10:38,471 --> 00:10:41,088
- Think he brought his surfboard?
- ...and to coach in this city.
129
00:10:41,182 --> 00:10:43,423
- Surfboard, Beach Boy records.
- The Philadelphia Eagles
130
00:10:43,518 --> 00:10:48,308
have a very long and proud tradition
of winning and excellence.
131
00:10:48,773 --> 00:10:51,606
It's a tradition that's been lost
in recent years.
132
00:10:52,152 --> 00:10:54,359
It's a tradition
that I'm committed to restoring.
133
00:10:54,404 --> 00:10:56,520
Man should be committed
for taking this job.
134
00:10:59,784 --> 00:11:00,819
Hey, Mick, you mean to tell me
135
00:11:00,910 --> 00:11:01,900
you didn't see that guy
clothesline Pete?
136
00:11:01,995 --> 00:11:03,076
I didn't see nothing.
137
00:11:04,247 --> 00:11:05,328
I saw it from the car.
138
00:11:05,415 --> 00:11:07,827
Hey, that team had you guys beat
by a mile on that play.
139
00:11:07,917 --> 00:11:09,908
Oh, yeah? Then why aren't you
drinking over there?
140
00:11:09,961 --> 00:11:12,248
- Go to their bar, traitor.
- You want that on your tab?
141
00:11:12,297 --> 00:11:14,629
Hey, put a leash on that monkey.
142
00:11:15,008 --> 00:11:16,749
Vince, why does he get to run a tab,
I don't?
143
00:11:16,843 --> 00:11:18,675
Because he's got a job, that's why.
144
00:11:20,638 --> 00:11:22,925
That's great, Max. Yeah,
that's a great way to treat a friend.
145
00:11:25,310 --> 00:11:28,393
Hey, Max. Any chance I could pick up
a few more hours?
146
00:11:28,605 --> 00:11:30,016
- Sure. Why?
- First up, let's bring in
147
00:11:30,106 --> 00:11:31,847
Wade Chambers
of Channel 11 Sports.
148
00:11:31,941 --> 00:11:33,602
Well, the Eagles
took their time on this one.
149
00:11:33,693 --> 00:11:34,774
But for the first time...
150
00:11:34,861 --> 00:11:37,728
I'm giving my cousin from New York
a few hours starting Thursday.
151
00:11:37,780 --> 00:11:40,272
- You can have the rest if you want.
- Thanks. Appreciate it.
152
00:11:40,325 --> 00:11:44,284
Owner Leonard Tose announced
the hiring of UCLA's Dick Vermeil
153
00:11:44,370 --> 00:11:45,986
- as the Eagles' head coach.
- Hey, Grumpy.
154
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,696
You wanna turn up the tube?
155
00:11:47,790 --> 00:11:51,408
...wasted no time before making
this surprising announcement.
156
00:11:51,461 --> 00:11:54,920
Before I take your questions,
I'd like to make a quick announcement.
157
00:11:54,964 --> 00:11:59,299
This coming Saturday,
at Veterans Stadium at 9:00 am,
158
00:11:59,344 --> 00:12:02,052
the Philadelphia Eagles
will hold open tryouts.
159
00:12:02,472 --> 00:12:04,304
- We're open to all comers.
- It's open.
160
00:12:04,390 --> 00:12:06,097
- This guy's out of his mind.
- So we can go ahead
161
00:12:06,142 --> 00:12:08,804
- and start with the questions now.
- There you have it, Eagle fans.
162
00:12:08,853 --> 00:12:11,561
So strap on your helmets.
Throw on those shoulder pads.
163
00:12:11,648 --> 00:12:14,060
Here's your chance to play in the NFL.
164
00:12:14,150 --> 00:12:16,608
I guess four wins
wasn't so bad after all.
165
00:12:17,195 --> 00:12:20,813
- Yo, Vince. What do you say?
- What?
166
00:12:20,865 --> 00:12:22,776
You're faster
than half those guys anyway.
167
00:12:23,993 --> 00:12:25,859
Hey, come on. Give it a shot.
168
00:12:26,329 --> 00:12:27,660
Yeah, Vince.
169
00:12:27,830 --> 00:12:29,366
Papale at the 40.
170
00:12:29,457 --> 00:12:31,824
At the 30. The 20.
171
00:12:31,918 --> 00:12:33,204
He's at the 10.
172
00:12:50,353 --> 00:12:51,514
Sharon!
173
00:12:58,778 --> 00:12:59,984
Sharon!
174
00:13:57,503 --> 00:14:00,746
- Hey.
- Hey. Sixteen-hour first day.
175
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,083
- You're not going soft on me, are you?
- Look who's talking.
176
00:14:05,261 --> 00:14:06,797
Well, I found out today
177
00:14:06,888 --> 00:14:10,097
that there aren't any sprinkler systems
on the East Coast.
178
00:14:10,183 --> 00:14:13,721
Only took me a half an hour
to make that little discovery.
179
00:14:18,441 --> 00:14:20,273
You happen to see
that press conference today?
180
00:14:20,318 --> 00:14:22,685
Yeah. You looked good.
181
00:14:24,197 --> 00:14:26,939
The tryout come off
sounding a little desperate?
182
00:14:29,035 --> 00:14:30,571
Maybe a little.
183
00:14:34,207 --> 00:14:36,539
You don't seriously think
you're gonna find someone, do you?
184
00:14:36,626 --> 00:14:38,833
I'm just trying to get people excited,
that's all.
185
00:14:47,261 --> 00:14:50,379
So, Max just told me.
She took everything?
186
00:14:50,473 --> 00:14:53,556
- And she wants a divorce?
- Look, it's nothing, all right?
187
00:14:53,643 --> 00:14:55,634
Just forget about it, Tommy.
188
00:14:58,731 --> 00:15:01,974
Gin and tonic, light on the tonic,
and a Red neat for you, yeah?
189
00:15:02,026 --> 00:15:04,063
- That's right.
- Here you go.
190
00:15:04,153 --> 00:15:06,520
Sweetheart, if you could cook Italian,
I'd marry you.
191
00:15:06,614 --> 00:15:09,151
- If she had no legs, you'd marry her.
- Get out of here.
192
00:15:11,953 --> 00:15:14,536
- Sorry I'm late, Max.
- Hey, Vince, we're covered.
193
00:15:14,622 --> 00:15:17,455
- I know, I know, Max. I'm sorry.
- Hey, no problem.
194
00:15:17,667 --> 00:15:19,533
Anything you need, all right?
195
00:15:19,961 --> 00:15:23,170
Vince Papale,
meet my cousin, Janet Cantwell.
196
00:15:24,006 --> 00:15:27,294
- Hey.
- Nice to meet you.
197
00:15:28,010 --> 00:15:29,876
And just so everyone knows,
198
00:15:30,430 --> 00:15:31,966
we have a minor character flaw
199
00:15:32,014 --> 00:15:33,504
that we're all gonna
have to deal with here.
200
00:15:33,558 --> 00:15:36,141
- I don't see many flaws, Max.
- Watch it, Tommy.
201
00:15:36,185 --> 00:15:37,346
Hubba-hubba.
202
00:15:37,812 --> 00:15:40,349
My cousin, who is from New York,
203
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:44,354
who was born in New York,
is a New York Giants fan.
204
00:15:45,570 --> 00:15:47,026
- Go, Giants.
- You gotta be kidding me.
205
00:15:47,113 --> 00:15:48,649
- A passionate New York Giants fan.
- Come on.
206
00:15:48,698 --> 00:15:49,779
Max, she's a Giant fan?
207
00:15:49,866 --> 00:15:51,732
- Maxie, come on.
- I know, I know.
208
00:15:51,826 --> 00:15:52,941
62-10.
209
00:15:53,035 --> 00:15:55,993
Giants humiliate the Eagles.
What was that? Three years ago?
210
00:15:56,038 --> 00:15:59,656
And we actually get our players
from something called the NFL draft.
211
00:15:59,709 --> 00:16:00,790
Ooh!
212
00:16:00,877 --> 00:16:02,367
- Yeah!
- What kind of talk is that?
213
00:16:02,462 --> 00:16:03,543
See, Vince?
214
00:16:03,588 --> 00:16:06,171
That's another reason
why you gotta try out this weekend.
215
00:16:06,215 --> 00:16:08,502
- Nobody's trying out, Tommy, okay?
- Why not?
216
00:16:08,551 --> 00:16:10,792
- You clean up at all our games.
- Oh.
217
00:16:10,887 --> 00:16:13,219
- He's 30 years old, for one thing.
- Oh, shut your mouth.
218
00:16:13,264 --> 00:16:15,380
Yeah, there's a little difference
between Mean Joe Greene
219
00:16:15,475 --> 00:16:16,931
and Bobby from the Tanker, you think?
220
00:16:17,018 --> 00:16:18,179
Hey, hey, screw Mean Joe.
221
00:16:18,227 --> 00:16:19,888
We don't even play Pittsburgh
this year.
222
00:16:19,937 --> 00:16:21,302
- Petey's right.
- Yeah, why not?
223
00:16:21,397 --> 00:16:23,604
Your old lady ain't gonna stop you.
224
00:16:24,233 --> 00:16:26,395
What? What'd you say, Johnny?
225
00:16:26,486 --> 00:16:27,647
- What?
- What do you mean, "What"?
226
00:16:27,737 --> 00:16:29,899
You playing stupid now?
You got a problem with me, Johnny?
227
00:16:29,947 --> 00:16:31,108
What'd I do?
228
00:16:31,199 --> 00:16:33,486
Why don't you get out of here, Johnny?
229
00:16:33,993 --> 00:16:35,483
Come on, right now.
230
00:16:43,961 --> 00:16:46,077
Hey, forget it. He's drunk.
231
00:16:46,756 --> 00:16:49,293
He just needs to find some work,
that's all.
232
00:17:17,912 --> 00:17:19,778
You know, you and your thing.
233
00:17:20,706 --> 00:17:23,243
Johnny losing it
'cause he can't pay a bill.
234
00:17:26,295 --> 00:17:27,626
Now, Pete...
235
00:17:28,297 --> 00:17:32,382
Pete ain't been right since his brother
Andrew came back dead from the war.
236
00:17:32,510 --> 00:17:34,922
What about you, Tommy?
You hanging in okay?
237
00:17:34,971 --> 00:17:36,302
Yeah, same old.
238
00:17:37,139 --> 00:17:39,801
Bunch of guys
talking about going on a strike.
239
00:17:40,434 --> 00:17:41,799
I ain't worried.
240
00:17:49,277 --> 00:17:52,110
You know I'm serious
about this tryout, right?
241
00:17:54,949 --> 00:17:57,190
Hey. I have, like,
eight beers in me,
242
00:17:58,077 --> 00:18:00,318
but I'm serious, okay?
243
00:18:03,457 --> 00:18:05,494
Tommy, I mean,
I played one year of high school ball.
244
00:18:05,543 --> 00:18:06,658
It ain't gonna happen.
245
00:18:06,711 --> 00:18:09,578
There's no one I know that is
a bigger Eagle fan than you, okay?
246
00:18:09,672 --> 00:18:10,662
Nobody.
247
00:18:11,007 --> 00:18:13,544
All right, we're talking
about Veterans Stadium here.
248
00:18:13,634 --> 00:18:16,752
Where Eagles dare.
I mean, that is sacred ground, pally.
249
00:18:19,015 --> 00:18:21,598
Even if you're down there
for one hour, man,
250
00:18:22,935 --> 00:18:24,425
you're down there.
251
00:18:30,276 --> 00:18:32,734
Old Maxie's ready
to call it a night, huh?
252
00:18:34,322 --> 00:18:35,778
Last call, pally.
253
00:18:37,199 --> 00:18:38,689
Saddest music I know.
254
00:19:09,732 --> 00:19:12,645
- Hi, Pop.
- Vince.
255
00:19:16,113 --> 00:19:17,524
Come on in.
256
00:19:26,248 --> 00:19:27,955
I never did like her.
257
00:19:29,251 --> 00:19:31,117
I never told you that, did I?
258
00:19:34,799 --> 00:19:36,881
Guess maybe I should've
seen it coming, huh?
259
00:19:36,926 --> 00:19:38,007
What does she think?
260
00:19:38,094 --> 00:19:41,132
You're the only guy out there
trying to make ends meet?
261
00:19:42,515 --> 00:19:45,132
All those years,
your mother being sick...
262
00:19:48,771 --> 00:19:50,637
Well, that was nobody's fault.
263
00:19:53,693 --> 00:19:55,058
But this...
264
00:19:58,614 --> 00:20:01,072
Pop, I never had to ask you this before,
265
00:20:02,785 --> 00:20:05,243
but I'm gonna have trouble
making rent.
266
00:20:07,623 --> 00:20:08,738
Yeah.
267
00:20:10,751 --> 00:20:13,618
- How much you need?
- Hundred bucks.
268
00:20:14,004 --> 00:20:16,621
- I can pay you back as soon as I...
- No, no, forget it.
269
00:20:16,716 --> 00:20:19,083
There've been times
I've needed help, too.
270
00:20:19,135 --> 00:20:20,717
This is family.
271
00:20:21,470 --> 00:20:23,302
We've had some rough times,
you and me,
272
00:20:23,347 --> 00:20:25,338
but we stick on this one, okay?
273
00:20:27,852 --> 00:20:29,138
Thanks.
274
00:20:33,315 --> 00:20:35,852
So, what do you make
of this new coach?
275
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,482
Beat Woody Hayes in the Rose Bowl.
276
00:20:41,198 --> 00:20:42,905
Saying something.
277
00:20:45,286 --> 00:20:48,449
You know, I heard from Maxie
that the guys are riding you pretty hard
278
00:20:48,497 --> 00:20:50,329
about going to this tryout.
279
00:20:51,333 --> 00:20:52,664
Yeah, well...
280
00:20:54,295 --> 00:20:55,956
You know, Vince,
281
00:20:56,505 --> 00:20:59,372
it might not be the worst thing
to let this one go.
282
00:21:01,469 --> 00:21:04,006
A man can only take so much failure.
283
00:21:15,608 --> 00:21:16,689
Hello, Philly fans.
284
00:21:16,734 --> 00:21:21,194
I'm here today with literally hundreds
of Eagle hopefuls waiting for their shot
285
00:21:21,238 --> 00:21:25,152
at coach Dick Vermeil's
much-publicized open tryout.
286
00:21:25,534 --> 00:21:26,899
Come on.
287
00:21:26,994 --> 00:21:28,655
Now, what brings you
out here today, sir?
288
00:21:28,704 --> 00:21:31,116
- Gonna be an Eagle, baby.
- Yeah!
289
00:21:33,918 --> 00:21:36,034
What makes you think
you have a chance out here?
290
00:21:36,086 --> 00:21:39,954
Well, Wade,
two years' high school football, varsity.
291
00:21:40,049 --> 00:21:41,164
Yeah!
292
00:21:41,217 --> 00:21:44,084
I'm 28 years old. Look at me.
I'm in the best shape of my life!
293
00:21:45,721 --> 00:21:47,712
Now, is there anything else
you'd like to say?
294
00:21:47,807 --> 00:21:49,093
Absolutely.
295
00:21:49,183 --> 00:21:55,099
♪ Fight, Eagles, fight
On the road to victory ♪
296
00:21:55,189 --> 00:21:57,305
♪ Fight, Eagles, fight ♪
297
00:21:57,399 --> 00:21:58,434
What more can I say?
298
00:21:59,777 --> 00:22:02,394
That's it. Looking for
some Philadelphia Eagles here.
299
00:22:02,446 --> 00:22:04,278
Lift your legs up. Okay.
300
00:22:06,784 --> 00:22:08,650
Go! Go! Come on.
Move it. Move it.
301
00:22:12,998 --> 00:22:14,909
Come on.
Hustle, hustle, hustle.
302
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,490
Let's go. Four more.
303
00:22:17,211 --> 00:22:19,043
Come on. Hit it!
304
00:22:29,181 --> 00:22:30,512
All right. Beautiful. Let's do it.
305
00:22:30,599 --> 00:22:32,260
You know what?
306
00:22:32,351 --> 00:22:33,637
Forty-yard dash.
Move it. Move it. Let's go.
307
00:22:34,854 --> 00:22:35,935
Come on. Let's go, fellas. Do it.
308
00:22:35,980 --> 00:22:37,141
Come on, next group.
309
00:22:37,231 --> 00:22:39,097
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
310
00:22:39,692 --> 00:22:42,480
Move it. Move it.
Don't talk to him. Keep moving.
311
00:22:43,612 --> 00:22:45,102
Go, go, go, go!
312
00:22:46,156 --> 00:22:48,022
No, no, this is... This is too stupid.
313
00:22:48,117 --> 00:22:50,358
This is more stupid than I'm used to.
314
00:22:53,247 --> 00:22:56,740
Here we go. Next. Next.
Come on, get those knees up.
315
00:23:00,212 --> 00:23:01,953
- Thanks. Is this the updated list?
- Dick.
316
00:23:02,006 --> 00:23:04,122
- Yes, sir.
- Dick, this is brilliant.
317
00:23:04,174 --> 00:23:05,960
We haven't had
this many cameras here in 10 years.
318
00:23:06,010 --> 00:23:07,592
I want you to meet
three of your best players.
319
00:23:07,636 --> 00:23:09,297
We got Dean German.
Come here, guys. Come here.
320
00:23:09,388 --> 00:23:10,799
T.J. Banks. Ronnie Sampson.
321
00:23:10,890 --> 00:23:12,847
Say hello to Dick Vermeil,
your new coach.
322
00:23:12,933 --> 00:23:15,516
- How you doing, coach?
- Gentlemen.
323
00:23:15,603 --> 00:23:18,140
Mr. Tose, Channel 8.
They want five minutes.
324
00:23:19,648 --> 00:23:21,013
Get over there. Run a sprint.
325
00:23:21,108 --> 00:23:23,145
Will somebody run a sprint
around here?
326
00:23:23,235 --> 00:23:24,817
You're a joke. You gotta be kidding me.
327
00:23:24,862 --> 00:23:28,071
So, how's it looking, coach?
Seeing anything yet?
328
00:23:28,741 --> 00:23:30,823
You're not worried, are you, T.J.?
329
00:23:31,243 --> 00:23:32,483
Should I be?
330
00:23:32,912 --> 00:23:35,950
Well, last year we had one
of the worst defenses in the league.
331
00:23:35,998 --> 00:23:37,159
Offense wasn't much better.
332
00:23:37,249 --> 00:23:39,331
I'd say everybody needs to worry.
333
00:23:40,336 --> 00:23:41,872
See you boys at camp.
334
00:23:44,506 --> 00:23:46,122
We'll be there, coach.
335
00:23:46,842 --> 00:23:48,332
Longer than you will.
336
00:24:10,616 --> 00:24:12,402
Go, go, go, go.
337
00:24:15,371 --> 00:24:16,611
5.9.
338
00:24:16,872 --> 00:24:17,987
Let's go!
339
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:19,030
- Gents.
- Coach.
340
00:24:19,124 --> 00:24:20,114
Hey.
341
00:24:20,209 --> 00:24:22,325
- Let's go.
- Come on, guys. Come on.
342
00:24:22,378 --> 00:24:23,709
6.4?
343
00:24:23,796 --> 00:24:25,958
Let's go, gentlemen. Find another gear.
344
00:24:26,048 --> 00:24:27,038
Go!
345
00:24:28,050 --> 00:24:30,883
They do know
they're supposed to be running, right?
346
00:24:31,053 --> 00:24:32,794
5.7. Next.
347
00:24:34,014 --> 00:24:35,049
You see?
348
00:24:35,099 --> 00:24:37,511
- How we doing?
- Get your head up. Let's go.
349
00:24:37,559 --> 00:24:39,800
I've seen glaciers move faster.
350
00:25:01,083 --> 00:25:02,414
Throw him a few.
351
00:25:31,864 --> 00:25:33,946
You gotta be kidding me
with these numbers, Dick.
352
00:25:34,033 --> 00:25:35,444
Can I please let these guys go?
353
00:25:35,492 --> 00:25:37,233
- Yeah, go on.
- Thank you.
354
00:25:41,206 --> 00:25:43,072
- That's it, gentlemen.
- Oh, that's it?
355
00:25:43,125 --> 00:25:44,832
- That's it?
- Thank you for coming out.
356
00:25:44,918 --> 00:25:47,205
- Whoa, whoa, coach!
- What do you mean, that's it?
357
00:25:48,756 --> 00:25:49,791
Good workout.
358
00:25:49,882 --> 00:25:52,249
Thanks for coming.
You worked real hard.
359
00:25:52,301 --> 00:25:54,713
Gotta work on your speed a little, okay?
360
00:26:28,420 --> 00:26:30,161
Great. Give me a break.
361
00:26:33,550 --> 00:26:36,042
How long you been
having trouble with this?
362
00:26:36,470 --> 00:26:37,835
Since I bought it.
363
00:26:38,430 --> 00:26:41,513
- I'm Dick Vermeil.
- Vince Papale.
364
00:26:41,892 --> 00:26:43,007
Vince.
365
00:26:43,393 --> 00:26:47,478
Pretty good workout you just turned in.
Any idea how fast you were running?
366
00:26:47,856 --> 00:26:50,644
- No, not really.
- That was a 4.5.
367
00:26:51,193 --> 00:26:53,901
This means you're a heck of a lot faster
than this car of yours.
368
00:26:55,823 --> 00:26:59,361
- Where'd you play your college ball?
- I didn't play college ball.
369
00:27:01,286 --> 00:27:03,823
Vince, you mind me
asking you how old you are?
370
00:27:03,872 --> 00:27:05,237
No, I don't mind.
371
00:27:05,749 --> 00:27:08,207
You mind me
asking how old you are, coach?
372
00:27:12,714 --> 00:27:13,962
Let's bring in
Wade Chambers now...
373
00:27:14,049 --> 00:27:15,084
Figure that one out.
374
00:27:15,175 --> 00:27:16,711
...who spent most of his morning
at Veterans Stadium,
375
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:17,750
watching Eagle hopefuls.
376
00:27:17,845 --> 00:27:18,960
- Hey, buddy.
- Hey.
377
00:27:19,054 --> 00:27:21,546
I guess we can call them hopefuls.
How'd it go out there this morning?
378
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:22,926
It wasn't exactly a banner day...
379
00:27:23,016 --> 00:27:24,723
You had a chance to go and didn't,
did you?
380
00:27:24,810 --> 00:27:26,471
Former head coach Mike McCormack
381
00:27:26,562 --> 00:27:28,599
may not have run the tightest ship
in the NFL,
382
00:27:28,689 --> 00:27:30,930
but at least it wasn't a ship of fools.
383
00:27:31,024 --> 00:27:33,391
- ♪ - Fight, Eagles, fight ♪
- Look at this.
384
00:27:33,485 --> 00:27:35,692
♪ On the road to victory ♪
385
00:27:35,737 --> 00:27:38,900
That player, no surprise, did not get
an invitation to training camp.
386
00:27:38,949 --> 00:27:40,064
But believe it or not,
387
00:27:40,159 --> 00:27:43,652
new head coach Dick Vermeil
has decided to invite one person
388
00:27:43,745 --> 00:27:45,656
and one person only.
389
00:27:45,747 --> 00:27:49,741
He is Philadelphia native
Vince Papale...
390
00:27:49,793 --> 00:27:50,828
What?
391
00:27:50,919 --> 00:27:52,910
...a former teacher
who didn't even play college ball.
392
00:27:52,963 --> 00:27:54,328
Oh, you must be kidding me!
393
00:27:54,423 --> 00:27:55,504
Congratulations!
394
00:28:00,220 --> 00:28:02,882
Next round's on the house
for my boy Vince here.
395
00:28:06,310 --> 00:28:07,471
I'll have another beer.
396
00:28:09,104 --> 00:28:12,688
Hey! I grew up with brothers,
but I got no problem hitting a girl.
397
00:28:14,151 --> 00:28:16,392
- She called Petey a girl.
- Vince!
398
00:28:16,820 --> 00:28:18,777
Yo, Vince,
she's disrespecting your team here.
399
00:28:18,822 --> 00:28:22,235
I'm not disrespecting his team.
I'm just respecting mine.
400
00:28:22,284 --> 00:28:25,322
All right, already, sweetheart.
You're such a Giants fan?
401
00:28:25,412 --> 00:28:28,746
- Name me a Giant. Any Giant.
- Any Giant?
402
00:28:28,790 --> 00:28:31,908
- Dangerous game, Johnny.
- I'm a dangerous guy.
403
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,498
- Sam Huff.
- Everybody knows Sam Huff.
404
00:28:35,589 --> 00:28:38,126
Sam Huff.
All-American linebacker, West Virginia.
405
00:28:38,217 --> 00:28:41,005
Five years, All-Pro. Led the Giants
to the Championship Game
406
00:28:41,094 --> 00:28:44,632
in '56, '58, '59, '61, '62 and '63.
407
00:28:45,974 --> 00:28:47,089
Hey.
How many Championships they win?
408
00:28:47,142 --> 00:28:49,554
- Oh, shut up, Tommy.
- Oh, okay.
409
00:28:49,645 --> 00:28:50,726
The big goose egg.
410
00:28:50,812 --> 00:28:52,974
Oh, Ace wants to get
into the game.
411
00:28:53,023 --> 00:28:56,141
All right, teach me something
about your beloved Iggles.
412
00:28:56,193 --> 00:28:59,185
- That's easy. Tommy McDonald.
- Oh, that's Vince's boy.
413
00:29:00,030 --> 00:29:02,397
All-American wide receiver, Oklahoma.
414
00:29:02,741 --> 00:29:06,075
Led the Eagles to the Championship
in 1960 over Green Bay.
415
00:29:06,161 --> 00:29:07,151
1960.
416
00:29:07,246 --> 00:29:10,079
And who'd they beat to get there?
Yeah.
417
00:29:10,165 --> 00:29:12,657
The New York Giants!
418
00:29:13,877 --> 00:29:15,367
See, that's what I'm talking about.
419
00:29:15,462 --> 00:29:17,544
All right, everybody, quiet down.
420
00:29:19,841 --> 00:29:23,084
The last year or two we ain't had much
to raise our glasses to.
421
00:29:23,178 --> 00:29:24,668
- Yeah.
- You got that right.
422
00:29:24,721 --> 00:29:26,678
But we sure got something tonight,
don't we?
423
00:29:26,723 --> 00:29:27,929
Yeah.
424
00:29:32,854 --> 00:29:36,188
To Vince Papale, neighborhood boy,
425
00:29:36,608 --> 00:29:39,350
who, starting two days from now,
will be on the field
426
00:29:39,403 --> 00:29:41,610
mixing it up with Bill Bergey.
427
00:29:41,697 --> 00:29:42,812
Bergey!
428
00:29:42,864 --> 00:29:44,070
T-Bone Parker.
429
00:29:44,157 --> 00:29:45,363
T-Bone!
430
00:29:45,450 --> 00:29:47,236
- Frankie LeMaster.
- Yeah!
431
00:29:47,327 --> 00:29:49,364
For that team we still love.
432
00:29:49,454 --> 00:29:50,444
Yeah!
433
00:29:50,539 --> 00:29:52,621
The Philadelphia Eagles!
434
00:30:15,897 --> 00:30:17,228
- You okay?
- Yeah.
435
00:30:17,274 --> 00:30:19,231
Let's go outside for a minute.
436
00:30:22,654 --> 00:30:23,940
Max, I'm all right.
437
00:30:24,031 --> 00:30:25,237
I already got some help. Don't worry.
438
00:30:25,282 --> 00:30:26,818
Yeah, well,
you're about to get some more.
439
00:30:26,908 --> 00:30:28,569
Come on.
Pay some bills while you're at camp.
440
00:30:28,660 --> 00:30:30,367
- Max.
- What?
441
00:30:30,412 --> 00:30:33,325
Look, it's not like
I'm gonna be making the team.
442
00:30:33,415 --> 00:30:34,997
Don't talk like that.
443
00:30:35,459 --> 00:30:38,577
You go out there and you play
like you're better than they are.
444
00:30:38,670 --> 00:30:40,331
- Come on.
- I'm gonna make it up to you, all right?
445
00:30:40,422 --> 00:30:42,083
Oh, you're damn right, you are.
446
00:30:42,174 --> 00:30:44,006
- Thanks, Max.
- All right.
447
00:30:44,092 --> 00:30:45,423
Hey.
448
00:30:45,469 --> 00:30:47,255
- Hey, you heading home?
- Yeah.
449
00:30:47,304 --> 00:30:50,046
One of you guys should get back
in there. It's getting crazy.
450
00:30:50,098 --> 00:30:51,338
- Animals.
- I got it.
451
00:30:51,433 --> 00:30:54,391
No, no, no. You should go home, too.
You're in training, remember?
452
00:30:54,436 --> 00:30:56,677
And walk her home while you're at it.
She's on your way.
453
00:30:56,772 --> 00:30:57,887
No, I'm fine.
454
00:30:57,939 --> 00:31:00,681
Right, and I'm gonna tell Uncle Richie
I let you walk home at night
455
00:31:00,776 --> 00:31:02,642
in South Philly wearing that?
456
00:31:02,819 --> 00:31:03,900
Come on.
457
00:31:05,697 --> 00:31:06,812
Good night.
458
00:31:07,115 --> 00:31:08,230
Whoa, whoa.
459
00:31:09,076 --> 00:31:11,283
Wait a second. Are you kidding me?
460
00:31:11,370 --> 00:31:13,737
Wade Chambers
right here at my place?
461
00:31:13,789 --> 00:31:15,075
Is this Max's?
462
00:31:15,165 --> 00:31:16,451
Yeah, it's Max's.
463
00:31:16,500 --> 00:31:18,707
Look at the... Max Cantwell.
464
00:31:18,794 --> 00:31:20,455
- This is my cousin, Janet.
- Hi.
465
00:31:20,545 --> 00:31:23,788
And this is the man you probably
wanna talk to, Vince Papale.
466
00:31:23,882 --> 00:31:24,997
Oh, no, thanks.
467
00:31:25,092 --> 00:31:27,003
People wanna know
who you are, Vince.
468
00:31:27,094 --> 00:31:28,459
All we need's five minutes.
469
00:31:28,553 --> 00:31:30,760
Hey, you could do it
right here outside my bar.
470
00:31:30,806 --> 00:31:34,344
- I gotta walk Janet home.
- Oh, no. I can wait.
471
00:31:37,312 --> 00:31:39,599
- All right, five minutes.
- All right.
472
00:31:41,274 --> 00:31:43,891
- Popoli or Papal?
- Papale.
473
00:31:44,820 --> 00:31:46,561
And all set.
474
00:31:46,988 --> 00:31:48,979
I'm here on Franklin Street
with Vince Papale,
475
00:31:49,032 --> 00:31:51,364
a bartender at Max's Bar and Grill
476
00:31:51,451 --> 00:31:53,442
and perhaps
future professional football player
477
00:31:53,495 --> 00:31:55,031
with the Philadelphia Eagles.
478
00:31:55,122 --> 00:31:56,112
Hey, whoa, whoa.
479
00:31:56,164 --> 00:31:58,576
So, Vince, tell us about your day
at Veterans Stadium.
480
00:31:58,667 --> 00:32:00,954
Hey, Pete!
What are you, a knucklehead?
481
00:32:01,002 --> 00:32:02,868
- All right, let's cut it.
- Going on my kegs?
482
00:32:02,963 --> 00:32:04,920
- Sorry.
- Come on, we're on TV here!
483
00:32:10,679 --> 00:32:12,795
So, how'd you become a Giants fan?
484
00:32:13,432 --> 00:32:15,799
Besides the fact
I was born in New York?
485
00:32:16,810 --> 00:32:20,019
Five brothers, all older.
Not much choice, yeah?
486
00:32:20,313 --> 00:32:21,974
That's why I like bartending.
487
00:32:22,023 --> 00:32:24,856
It's like I'm back home
listening to my brothers argue.
488
00:32:24,943 --> 00:32:26,525
You worked right there in the city?
489
00:32:26,570 --> 00:32:27,731
Yeah.
490
00:32:30,740 --> 00:32:33,323
So, you got something pretty big
happening here.
491
00:32:33,368 --> 00:32:35,905
I'll be right back here in a couple days.
492
00:32:38,373 --> 00:32:39,704
This is my place.
493
00:32:43,003 --> 00:32:44,789
Tommy McDonald, huh?
494
00:32:47,007 --> 00:32:48,497
I'll see you around?
495
00:33:08,778 --> 00:33:09,768
- Hello?
- Hey.
496
00:33:09,863 --> 00:33:13,447
Turn on Channel 11. They're gonna
do your interview in one minute.
497
00:33:26,588 --> 00:33:27,623
Vinnie.
498
00:33:27,714 --> 00:33:28,749
Pardon me, Mrs. Spegnetti.
499
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,378
Do you think maybe I could watch
your TV just for a few minutes?
500
00:33:32,802 --> 00:33:33,837
Okay.
501
00:33:33,970 --> 00:33:36,086
Vince Papale, a part-time bartender,
502
00:33:36,139 --> 00:33:38,972
will be at Eagles training camp
in just two days.
503
00:33:39,059 --> 00:33:42,017
- This is no Tinseltown fairytale, folks.
- Vinnie, that's you on TV.
504
00:33:42,103 --> 00:33:45,312
This is a real-life Cinderella story,
with a cleat instead of a slipper,
505
00:33:45,398 --> 00:33:46,729
right here in Philadelphia.
506
00:33:46,775 --> 00:33:47,890
Eagles, baby, Eagles!
507
00:33:47,943 --> 00:33:50,312
- Oh, my God, my neighbor's famous.
- Wade Chambers, Channel 11 News.
508
00:33:50,403 --> 00:33:52,269
Good luck, Vince.
We'll be pulling for you.
509
00:33:52,364 --> 00:33:53,946
- Don.
- Thanks, Wade.
510
00:33:54,032 --> 00:33:56,114
Certainly a different approach
being taken
511
00:33:56,201 --> 00:33:58,283
by new Eagles coach Dick Vermeil.
512
00:33:58,745 --> 00:34:00,952
In other news tonight,
a three-alarm fire broke out...
513
00:34:00,997 --> 00:34:02,658
Change in game plan, coach?
514
00:34:02,749 --> 00:34:04,490
Just need to shake things up.
515
00:34:04,584 --> 00:34:06,325
If it means doing this
for a couple of weeks,
516
00:34:06,419 --> 00:34:07,909
might not be such a bad thing.
517
00:34:07,963 --> 00:34:09,579
Just be careful, Dick.
518
00:34:09,631 --> 00:34:11,372
This isn't UCLA anymore.
519
00:34:11,466 --> 00:34:13,628
These are the toughest fans there are.
520
00:34:13,718 --> 00:34:16,301
They threw snowballs at Santa Claus.
You remember?
521
00:34:17,597 --> 00:34:18,803
Uh-huh.
522
00:34:20,392 --> 00:34:21,928
Gonna get some sleep?
523
00:34:23,645 --> 00:34:25,306
I'll sleep in December.
524
00:34:26,106 --> 00:34:27,392
Not if you make the playoffs.
525
00:36:17,384 --> 00:36:19,716
- Hey, Petey.
- Hey.
526
00:36:20,095 --> 00:36:22,587
- What are you doing here?
- Nothing.
527
00:36:22,681 --> 00:36:25,594
I was over at Mom's for dinner.
Sunday night, you know.
528
00:36:25,642 --> 00:36:27,178
Figured I'd just stop
and see if you was here.
529
00:36:27,268 --> 00:36:30,260
- You been here long?
- No, a few minutes is all.
530
00:36:33,066 --> 00:36:34,807
Your big day tomorrow, huh?
531
00:36:35,610 --> 00:36:38,523
I mean, I guess, you know?
See what happens.
532
00:36:40,240 --> 00:36:43,449
It's a good thing, Vinnie.
No matter how long it goes.
533
00:36:44,369 --> 00:36:46,201
Even if it's just for a day.
534
00:36:55,922 --> 00:36:59,790
I never said good luck to Andrew,
you know, before he left for Nam.
535
00:37:10,812 --> 00:37:12,644
You do good out there, okay?
536
00:37:35,003 --> 00:37:37,495
Just don't touch anything
that's not yours.
537
00:38:30,725 --> 00:38:31,806
Excuse me.
538
00:38:32,894 --> 00:38:34,555
My name's spelled wrong.
539
00:38:34,729 --> 00:38:38,723
Nothing personal, but by the time
I get to it, is it really gonna matter?
540
00:39:19,274 --> 00:39:20,435
Yeah. Come on.
541
00:39:20,525 --> 00:39:22,107
- What's up, Cool Breeze?
- All right?
542
00:39:22,193 --> 00:39:23,274
Hey, man.
543
00:39:23,319 --> 00:39:24,605
What's going on?
544
00:39:26,781 --> 00:39:28,772
- Oh, yeah.
- You deserve it, man.
545
00:39:28,950 --> 00:39:30,281
Gonna reach
Harold Carmichael stats.
546
00:39:30,368 --> 00:39:32,826
- There ain't no way he's gonna do that.
- Hey, Carmichael.
547
00:39:32,912 --> 00:39:34,778
No, I was talking to Mom the other day.
Everything's good.
548
00:39:34,831 --> 00:39:35,992
Getting D.
549
00:39:41,796 --> 00:39:42,831
You ready for this?
550
00:39:42,922 --> 00:39:45,380
I'm probably gonna hit them hard
right out of the gate, A.C.
551
00:39:45,466 --> 00:39:46,456
See who's who.
552
00:39:46,551 --> 00:39:47,586
That's not what I meant.
553
00:39:47,635 --> 00:39:49,626
Better be good, golden boy!
554
00:39:49,721 --> 00:39:50,802
Rookie coach.
555
00:39:50,847 --> 00:39:52,838
- This ain't college no more.
- You got one year, buddy.
556
00:39:52,932 --> 00:39:55,469
- You better be renting month-to-month!
- Welcome to the NFL.
557
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:57,676
Gentlemen,
you're about to hear me say a word
558
00:39:57,770 --> 00:39:59,761
you'll never hear me say again.
559
00:40:00,565 --> 00:40:01,771
Lose.
560
00:40:03,526 --> 00:40:04,982
Means to fail.
561
00:40:06,154 --> 00:40:11,490
Means to be reduced,
to surrender, to relinquish.
562
00:40:12,660 --> 00:40:15,743
Over the years,
this team has surrendered.
563
00:40:15,830 --> 00:40:17,320
It's been reduced.
564
00:40:18,291 --> 00:40:19,827
This team has failed.
565
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:21,950
No more.
566
00:40:23,171 --> 00:40:27,165
No more. Starting today,
we are on a path toward winning.
567
00:40:27,342 --> 00:40:29,834
And that's gonna require
a lot more work and sacrifice
568
00:40:29,928 --> 00:40:31,839
than many of you are used to.
569
00:40:31,888 --> 00:40:33,845
Six straight weeks of two-a-days.
570
00:40:33,890 --> 00:40:36,598
We'll go three,
three-and-a-half-hour sessions.
571
00:40:36,935 --> 00:40:39,643
We are gonna shake the rust
out of these shoulder pads
572
00:40:39,687 --> 00:40:41,678
and we're gonna become winners.
573
00:40:42,231 --> 00:40:44,313
And I don't care what your story is.
574
00:40:44,359 --> 00:40:48,353
Veteran, rookie, free agent. I don't care.
575
00:40:48,446 --> 00:40:51,734
You earn a spot on this team
by what you show me on this field.
576
00:40:51,824 --> 00:40:52,905
That's it.
577
00:40:54,035 --> 00:40:55,571
I play no favorites.
578
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:58,070
None.
579
00:41:01,042 --> 00:41:03,249
All right. Let's go to work.
580
00:41:03,336 --> 00:41:07,045
One, two, three, two.
One, two, three, three.
581
00:41:07,131 --> 00:41:09,293
One, two, three, four.
582
00:41:09,384 --> 00:41:10,966
Work, work, work!
583
00:41:29,237 --> 00:41:30,227
Down!
584
00:41:36,369 --> 00:41:39,782
Get that helmet back on!
What do you think this is, a waltz?
585
00:41:39,872 --> 00:41:41,738
- Run it again.
- All right!
586
00:41:41,833 --> 00:41:43,244
- Do it again.
- You heard the man!
587
00:41:43,292 --> 00:41:44,828
We're doing it again!
588
00:41:47,505 --> 00:41:49,712
Bring it! Down! Get up!
589
00:41:53,845 --> 00:41:58,464
25, 26, 27, 28...
590
00:42:07,650 --> 00:42:09,561
Come on. Keep moving.
591
00:42:21,247 --> 00:42:23,033
Blue 99. Hut.
592
00:42:29,672 --> 00:42:31,458
Look at that white boy run!
593
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,290
Thinks he's a football player!
594
00:42:34,385 --> 00:42:35,625
Hey, old man.
595
00:42:36,262 --> 00:42:37,798
This ain't high school!
596
00:42:37,847 --> 00:42:38,962
Hey, Banks!
597
00:42:39,140 --> 00:42:41,347
That old man just made you look bad.
598
00:42:43,061 --> 00:42:45,143
That's the way to finish, Papale!
599
00:42:56,407 --> 00:42:58,774
Stay on your feet or get off the field!
600
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:03,115
Come on!
601
00:43:10,004 --> 00:43:11,290
Let's go, rook.
602
00:43:16,177 --> 00:43:17,508
Come on!
603
00:43:19,847 --> 00:43:20,928
Stay down!
604
00:43:21,015 --> 00:43:23,256
You gotta show me more than that, 83.
605
00:43:35,530 --> 00:43:36,565
I'll catch you later.
606
00:43:36,656 --> 00:43:38,613
- Next time, Stan.
- All right.
607
00:43:38,825 --> 00:43:42,238
Oh, dig! What do you think
you're doing out there, Pops?
608
00:43:42,328 --> 00:43:44,569
- What?
- It's the first day of camp.
609
00:43:44,872 --> 00:43:46,579
Might wanna settle down.
610
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:51,459
Try helping out the ones who are
actually gonna make this team.
611
00:44:04,058 --> 00:44:05,765
- 442, Papale.
- Thanks.
612
00:44:05,852 --> 00:44:07,013
Dinner's at 7:00.
613
00:44:07,061 --> 00:44:08,472
Receivers' meeting at 9:00.
614
00:44:08,563 --> 00:44:10,099
Lights out, 11:00.
615
00:44:10,273 --> 00:44:11,388
Hey, coach.
616
00:44:12,024 --> 00:44:14,891
- Isn't there someone else in here?
- Not anymore.
617
00:44:29,417 --> 00:44:31,954
Hey, big guy. Come here for a second.
618
00:44:34,046 --> 00:44:35,161
Check this.
619
00:44:37,550 --> 00:44:39,257
Ooh, she's cold-blooded, huh?
620
00:44:41,095 --> 00:44:42,460
Do you dig that?
621
00:45:09,373 --> 00:45:12,161
A Giants shirt? What, are you trying
to get me killed here?
622
00:45:12,251 --> 00:45:13,537
So how'd it go?
623
00:45:14,128 --> 00:45:16,369
I got a room.
Just haven't unpacked yet.
624
00:45:16,464 --> 00:45:18,171
I mean,
it's a little different from playing
625
00:45:18,257 --> 00:45:19,964
with Maxie and the boys, though,
that's for sure.
626
00:45:20,009 --> 00:45:21,670
Well, I'll be sure to let them know that.
627
00:45:21,761 --> 00:45:23,718
Hey, you working tomorrow night?
628
00:45:23,804 --> 00:45:25,545
I just thought maybe
if you weren't doing anything...
629
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:28,883
Not that we'd be, you know,
doing anything official, but...
630
00:45:30,603 --> 00:45:32,810
Oh, well, being as you put it that way,
631
00:45:33,648 --> 00:45:35,230
sure, yeah.
632
00:45:35,316 --> 00:45:37,603
Great. Hey, and thanks
for the package, really.
633
00:45:37,652 --> 00:45:39,563
- No problem.
- All right, I'll call you tomorrow.
634
00:45:39,654 --> 00:45:40,940
All right. Bye.
635
00:45:43,991 --> 00:45:45,322
Take him down!
636
00:45:45,368 --> 00:45:46,608
Good job! Good job!
637
00:45:46,661 --> 00:45:48,322
She was right, old man!
638
00:45:48,454 --> 00:45:51,321
- You ain't going nowhere.
- That's right, German!
639
00:45:54,585 --> 00:45:55,666
Come here!
640
00:45:59,340 --> 00:46:02,674
- Hey!
- Hold on. That's enough! Break it up.
641
00:46:02,718 --> 00:46:03,833
- Come on!
- Back off!
642
00:46:05,012 --> 00:46:06,502
I said, back off!
643
00:46:06,681 --> 00:46:08,672
A.C., get them over to the sleds.
644
00:46:08,724 --> 00:46:10,715
All right, team. Let's move it.
645
00:46:10,810 --> 00:46:12,892
You heard the man. Let's move it.
646
00:46:13,771 --> 00:46:15,011
Move! Yeah!
647
00:46:16,524 --> 00:46:17,605
Game over!
648
00:46:20,987 --> 00:46:22,148
Philly, huh?
649
00:46:23,406 --> 00:46:24,862
I needed a change.
650
00:46:25,533 --> 00:46:27,740
A new city seemed like a good start.
651
00:46:31,330 --> 00:46:32,365
My ex.
652
00:46:32,415 --> 00:46:34,372
- Husband?
- Boyfriend.
653
00:46:36,210 --> 00:46:38,121
He wasn't what he said he was.
654
00:46:38,713 --> 00:46:40,249
What'd he say he was?
655
00:46:41,966 --> 00:46:42,956
Single.
656
00:46:45,553 --> 00:46:48,136
How about you?
If you don't mind me asking.
657
00:46:49,557 --> 00:46:51,389
Married five years.
658
00:46:52,018 --> 00:46:54,305
Showed up one day, she wasn't there.
659
00:46:56,063 --> 00:46:58,020
- Sorry.
- No, that's okay.
660
00:46:59,942 --> 00:47:01,899
So now you play football.
661
00:47:01,944 --> 00:47:03,901
Well, I've been playing
since I was a kid.
662
00:47:03,988 --> 00:47:05,570
Nothing big, you know.
663
00:47:05,948 --> 00:47:07,484
My mom was the one
that got me started.
664
00:47:07,575 --> 00:47:10,317
- Your mom?
- Yeah. Yeah, she was a great athlete.
665
00:47:10,411 --> 00:47:12,072
I mean, she got sick
when I was really young.
666
00:47:12,121 --> 00:47:14,237
Had a lot of medical problems.
667
00:47:15,082 --> 00:47:16,368
What about your dad?
668
00:47:16,417 --> 00:47:18,158
Well, he worked at the factory.
669
00:47:18,252 --> 00:47:19,993
I mean, he'd come home
as much as he could,
670
00:47:20,087 --> 00:47:21,828
but, you know, he had to pay the bills.
671
00:47:21,922 --> 00:47:25,415
I think her medical condition
really bothered him a lot, though.
672
00:47:26,635 --> 00:47:28,376
We always had the Eagles.
673
00:47:29,305 --> 00:47:31,967
You know, he'd love to tell
the story of Steve Van Buren.
674
00:47:32,058 --> 00:47:33,765
The '48 Championship Game?
675
00:47:37,104 --> 00:47:39,220
I have five brothers, remember?
676
00:47:39,357 --> 00:47:41,018
Yeah, I remember now.
677
00:47:41,108 --> 00:47:42,894
Anyway, I mean,
he'd talk about Steve Van Buren
678
00:47:42,943 --> 00:47:45,526
scoring the only touchdown
against the Chicago Cardinals,
679
00:47:45,613 --> 00:47:47,195
which won them the Championship.
680
00:47:47,281 --> 00:47:48,362
7-0.
681
00:47:49,241 --> 00:47:51,073
How do you know all of that?
682
00:47:51,452 --> 00:47:52,658
Mmm.
683
00:48:00,044 --> 00:48:02,035
First cut's always the deepest.
684
00:48:09,387 --> 00:48:12,345
Coach wants to see you.
Bring your playbook.
685
00:48:20,523 --> 00:48:23,060
Coach wants to see you.
Bring your playbook.
686
00:48:26,904 --> 00:48:28,941
Bring your playbook.
687
00:48:51,637 --> 00:48:54,470
Coach wants to see you.
Bring your playbook.
688
00:49:15,536 --> 00:49:17,698
Once again, the evening's top story.
689
00:49:17,955 --> 00:49:21,289
Union leaders are now calling
for a strike against Westinghouse.
690
00:49:21,375 --> 00:49:23,582
Two thousand workers
could be on the picket lines
691
00:49:23,669 --> 00:49:25,660
as early as tomorrow night.
692
00:49:25,963 --> 00:49:28,500
And now over to Wade Chambers
and sports.
693
00:49:28,591 --> 00:49:31,083
Well, the biggest news today
from Eagles training camp
694
00:49:31,177 --> 00:49:35,762
is that Philly's own Vince Papale
has made it past the first round of cuts.
695
00:49:35,890 --> 00:49:38,723
The part-time bartender remains
a long shot to make the team,
696
00:49:38,767 --> 00:49:42,977
but the mere fact that he's still around,
well, that's amazing in itself.
697
00:49:43,856 --> 00:49:44,891
Attaboy, Vince.
698
00:49:44,940 --> 00:49:47,397
Vermeil's coaching staff seems to be
focusing on defense this year.
699
00:49:47,443 --> 00:49:49,559
Welcome to special teams, gentlemen.
700
00:49:49,653 --> 00:49:51,735
The only way that many of you
will make this roster
701
00:49:51,822 --> 00:49:53,904
is by proving yourself right here.
702
00:49:53,949 --> 00:49:56,737
To be successful,
you must throw away all fear.
703
00:49:57,578 --> 00:49:59,535
Speed and agility are critical,
704
00:49:59,580 --> 00:50:03,244
but desire and determination
are even more important.
705
00:50:03,334 --> 00:50:04,699
Ready.
706
00:50:08,881 --> 00:50:10,417
Move it, move it!
707
00:50:10,925 --> 00:50:12,086
That's it.
708
00:50:12,635 --> 00:50:14,251
- Got it.
- Way to go, Banks!
709
00:50:14,303 --> 00:50:15,839
Way to bring it home.
710
00:50:16,805 --> 00:50:18,011
- Looks good, right?
- Yeah.
711
00:50:18,098 --> 00:50:19,338
Next!
712
00:50:19,433 --> 00:50:20,923
Keep them on the 20.
713
00:50:28,442 --> 00:50:30,103
There you go, Sampson!
714
00:50:30,194 --> 00:50:32,481
That's what we're looking for out here!
715
00:50:32,571 --> 00:50:33,857
Mmm-hmm.
716
00:50:33,948 --> 00:50:35,985
Cream's coming to the top now, Pops.
717
00:50:36,075 --> 00:50:37,986
- Give me some.
- Oh, yeah.
718
00:50:41,497 --> 00:50:42,612
What you doing in here?
719
00:50:42,706 --> 00:50:44,196
How am I supposed to run
in all this stuff?
720
00:50:44,291 --> 00:50:46,703
That stuff protects you.
It's there for a reason.
721
00:50:46,794 --> 00:50:48,205
You can't wear quarterback pads.
722
00:50:48,295 --> 00:50:49,877
You won't last a week wearing those.
723
00:50:49,964 --> 00:50:53,298
Nothing personal,
but is it really gonna matter?
724
00:50:57,012 --> 00:50:59,800
All right. Come on. You can do it!
725
00:51:00,683 --> 00:51:01,798
Ready.
726
00:52:06,749 --> 00:52:07,910
What about Franks?
727
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:09,365
They're beating him
on the weak side.
728
00:52:09,418 --> 00:52:12,706
He better figure something out
if he wants to stick around.
729
00:53:15,609 --> 00:53:16,974
Chicken soup.
730
00:53:17,903 --> 00:53:19,109
Cures everything, yeah?
731
00:53:21,490 --> 00:53:24,448
- Tom my been in yet?
- Not so far.
732
00:53:26,954 --> 00:53:29,070
Anybody take you to Colombo's yet?
733
00:53:29,289 --> 00:53:31,326
The best cheese steak in Philly.
734
00:53:32,626 --> 00:53:33,957
Anybody asking?
735
00:53:34,962 --> 00:53:37,545
Well, if Maxie
don't have you working Friday.
736
00:53:38,632 --> 00:53:41,715
Long as 9200 gets you back
for your curfew.
737
00:53:42,302 --> 00:53:43,417
All right.
738
00:53:48,100 --> 00:53:50,307
Hey, Rick, can you make me up
a grilled cheese?
739
00:53:50,394 --> 00:53:52,556
- Make it with fries.
- Oh, yeah.
740
00:53:53,355 --> 00:53:56,097
You're jumping back pretty fast,
huh, buddy boy?
741
00:53:58,152 --> 00:54:01,235
You really think a nice-looking girl
from New York's gonna come back,
742
00:54:01,321 --> 00:54:02,732
start over with one of us?
743
00:54:02,823 --> 00:54:06,316
Just 'cause everybody's
cheering for you trying to be an Eagle?
744
00:54:06,660 --> 00:54:09,652
We're just talking here.
What's your problem, Johnny?
745
00:54:10,539 --> 00:54:12,450
You'll still be nothing, man.
746
00:54:13,333 --> 00:54:16,496
When all this is over and done,
nothing.
747
00:54:17,337 --> 00:54:18,998
Just like the rest of us.
748
00:54:24,803 --> 00:54:26,669
Hey, Rick,
can I get some more fries?
749
00:54:26,722 --> 00:54:28,008
Sure, why not?
750
00:54:56,460 --> 00:54:57,541
- Hey.
- Hey.
751
00:54:58,378 --> 00:55:01,086
So, this is the place, huh?
As good as it gets?
752
00:55:01,548 --> 00:55:03,209
Yeah. I mean, it's a little busy tonight.
753
00:55:03,258 --> 00:55:04,248
Yeah.
754
00:55:04,843 --> 00:55:07,380
Hey. You're Papale, right?
755
00:55:07,429 --> 00:55:08,419
Yeah.
756
00:55:08,555 --> 00:55:11,217
I don't care what anybody says.
You're doing a great job.
757
00:55:11,266 --> 00:55:13,052
- Thank you.
- Keep sticking it to those guys.
758
00:55:13,101 --> 00:55:14,717
- All right?
- All right.
759
00:55:16,355 --> 00:55:19,188
- Sorry about that.
- I guess you're still on the team, huh?
760
00:55:19,233 --> 00:55:22,066
Yeah, well,
there's a lot more cuts to go, but...
761
00:55:26,406 --> 00:55:27,487
What?
762
00:55:29,618 --> 00:55:31,609
I was just thinking, you know.
763
00:55:31,703 --> 00:55:35,412
I didn't think I was gonna make it
past the first week of all this,
764
00:55:35,499 --> 00:55:37,410
and now that I have, I mean...
765
00:55:37,459 --> 00:55:40,201
Well, maybe it's just better
if I just think about one thing
766
00:55:40,254 --> 00:55:42,086
instead of everything else.
767
00:55:42,798 --> 00:55:44,084
For right now.
768
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:46,165
"Everything else"?
769
00:55:51,223 --> 00:55:53,715
Did you think
this was a date or something?
770
00:55:55,394 --> 00:55:59,729
Vince, I'm the last one
that wants to start something right now.
771
00:56:01,108 --> 00:56:04,521
Barely a month ago, I was
with the wrong guy, you were married.
772
00:56:04,611 --> 00:56:06,773
We're not exactly the perfect match.
773
00:56:06,864 --> 00:56:09,447
I didn't mean for it to sound like that.
That's not what I meant.
774
00:56:09,491 --> 00:56:11,357
No, you know,
Max thought it was gonna be busy
775
00:56:11,451 --> 00:56:13,283
at his place tonight, too,
so I'm gonna go over there
776
00:56:13,328 --> 00:56:14,693
and see if I can help him out.
777
00:56:14,788 --> 00:56:17,496
- Janet...
- No, we'll do this another night.
778
00:56:17,583 --> 00:56:19,665
I'll tell everyone you said hi.
779
00:56:43,817 --> 00:56:46,149
- Denny Franks, right?
- Mmm-hmm.
780
00:56:46,987 --> 00:56:48,443
Vermeil's trying to mix things up.
781
00:56:48,488 --> 00:56:50,900
He's putting rocks with veterans,
veterans with rocks.
782
00:56:50,991 --> 00:56:52,152
Crazy.
783
00:56:54,161 --> 00:56:55,868
So, are you like everyone else
around here?
784
00:56:55,954 --> 00:56:59,413
You mean, do I hate you? Yeah.
I'm a center. I hate everybody.
785
00:57:00,667 --> 00:57:03,830
Yeah, well, your weak-side block,
it's not good enough.
786
00:57:08,508 --> 00:57:09,543
Says who?
787
00:57:09,635 --> 00:57:11,342
I heard some coaches talking...
788
00:57:11,386 --> 00:57:12,842
- What color are my knuckles?
- What?
789
00:57:12,930 --> 00:57:14,216
What color are my knuckles?
790
00:57:14,306 --> 00:57:15,421
- They're white.
- They're white.
791
00:57:15,515 --> 00:57:16,846
You see,
white 'cause my weight's forward.
792
00:57:16,892 --> 00:57:17,927
Means I'm coming after you.
793
00:57:18,018 --> 00:57:20,385
If I'm laying back,
the color comes back.
794
00:57:23,982 --> 00:57:26,519
Tired of watching you
get hammered every day.
795
00:57:29,696 --> 00:57:31,107
I appreciate that.
796
00:57:31,698 --> 00:57:33,985
Is there anything else I should know?
797
00:57:34,034 --> 00:57:36,867
Yeah, lose the Giants shirt
hanging in my closet.
798
00:57:44,252 --> 00:57:45,868
You want a job?
You want a job? Let's go.
799
00:57:45,963 --> 00:57:47,749
- Let's go.
- Go, next group.
800
00:57:49,049 --> 00:57:51,040
- Set.
- Move it, move it, move it.
801
00:57:51,134 --> 00:57:54,718
Come on! All the way.
Touch the line! Touch the line!
802
00:57:55,597 --> 00:57:57,463
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
803
00:57:58,100 --> 00:58:01,058
Come on, gentlemen.
Let's act like you wanna be here!
804
00:58:01,853 --> 00:58:03,059
First group again.
805
00:58:03,146 --> 00:58:04,728
- All right, let's go. Let's go.
- Set.
806
00:58:04,815 --> 00:58:05,896
You heard him, first group.
807
00:58:07,150 --> 00:58:09,107
Right.
All the way, all the way.
808
00:58:09,194 --> 00:58:10,400
Shake it off. Shake it off.
809
00:58:10,487 --> 00:58:13,525
Push through. That's good.
Push them through. Come on.
810
00:58:14,408 --> 00:58:16,490
You do know
we have a whole season in front of us?
811
00:58:16,576 --> 00:58:18,192
That's it.
Hit and release. Hit and release.
812
00:58:18,245 --> 00:58:20,077
Come on. Do it again. Do it again.
813
00:58:20,122 --> 00:58:22,580
We're still looking
for the last five players, right, A.C.?
814
00:58:22,666 --> 00:58:23,747
I know.
815
00:58:23,917 --> 00:58:26,033
But do we need to kill the first 40
to find the last five?
816
00:58:26,086 --> 00:58:27,167
Fred!
817
00:58:28,422 --> 00:58:29,833
Nutcracker, other side of the field!
818
00:58:32,009 --> 00:58:33,044
Get in there.
819
00:58:37,097 --> 00:58:39,589
- Come on, rook.
- Put it on him, 57.
820
00:58:40,684 --> 00:58:42,550
- Come on, boy.
- Feel it. Come on.
821
00:58:42,602 --> 00:58:44,388
- Out of nowhere...
- You gotta feel it, Papale.
822
00:58:49,151 --> 00:58:51,688
- What are you doing?
- That's not quick enough, German.
823
00:58:51,778 --> 00:58:53,143
- Come on.
- Run it again. Now.
824
00:58:53,238 --> 00:58:54,273
Let's go.
825
00:58:54,322 --> 00:58:55,403
Rook came to play today, man.
826
00:58:55,449 --> 00:58:56,939
German, he's about
to dial your number.
827
00:58:57,034 --> 00:58:58,616
Pastahead Papale!
828
00:58:58,744 --> 00:59:00,200
- Hey, German.
- German!
829
00:59:00,287 --> 00:59:01,322
- Go, German!
- Go!
830
00:59:02,539 --> 00:59:03,779
Get him, get him.
831
00:59:06,626 --> 00:59:09,038
Hey, 57, I don't know.
He's got your number, baby.
832
00:59:09,129 --> 00:59:10,119
Get up!
833
00:59:10,213 --> 00:59:11,374
Let's go.
834
00:59:11,757 --> 00:59:15,921
It ain't over. It ain't over. It ain't over.
835
00:59:17,596 --> 00:59:18,631
Come on.
836
00:59:19,139 --> 00:59:20,800
- Come on!
- Come on!
837
00:59:22,976 --> 00:59:24,216
- Set.
- Take that rookie down.
838
00:59:28,690 --> 00:59:30,601
- You showed him, German.
- Let's move them downstairs.
839
00:59:31,943 --> 00:59:33,559
- All right, gentlemen. Lower field.
- Yeah.
840
00:59:34,780 --> 00:59:35,895
Let's move.
841
00:59:37,074 --> 00:59:38,155
Let's go.
842
00:59:47,292 --> 00:59:49,374
All right, Vince. It's all right.
843
01:00:09,689 --> 01:00:12,727
A less-than-perfect start
for new head coach Dick Vermeil,
844
01:00:12,818 --> 01:00:15,150
the Eagles losing
their preseason opener today
845
01:00:15,195 --> 01:00:17,562
to San Diego, 20-7.
846
01:00:17,656 --> 01:00:20,239
Still with the team,
for one more week, at least,
847
01:00:20,325 --> 01:00:22,692
South Philly's own favorite son,
Vince Papale.
848
01:00:23,995 --> 01:00:25,827
- To Vinnie.
- Cheers, brother.
849
01:00:26,164 --> 01:00:27,871
New week, same story.
850
01:00:27,958 --> 01:00:30,199
The Eagles,
losers of their opener a week ago,
851
01:00:30,293 --> 01:00:32,204
dropped their second straight
game today,
852
01:00:32,254 --> 01:00:34,996
a 14-7 decision to the Steelers.
853
01:00:35,048 --> 01:00:38,916
Well, let's just hope this isn't
the beginning of a long season, folks.
854
01:00:39,553 --> 01:00:41,544
If Dick Vermeil was hoping
for a honeymoon,
855
01:00:41,596 --> 01:00:43,007
he'll have to win a game first,
856
01:00:43,056 --> 01:00:47,721
Miami handing the Eagles their third
straight preseason loss today, 24-16.
857
01:00:48,061 --> 01:00:49,051
Vinnie.
858
01:00:49,604 --> 01:00:51,561
With final cuts only days away,
859
01:00:51,606 --> 01:00:54,940
South Philly's Vince Papale
saw a noticeable drop in playing time
860
01:00:55,026 --> 01:00:59,020
as the Eagles lose
to Cleveland tonight, 21-17,
861
01:00:59,072 --> 01:01:02,155
bringing their preseason record
to 0 and 6.
862
01:01:27,934 --> 01:01:28,924
Vince.
863
01:01:29,686 --> 01:01:32,269
What brings you back
to the old neighborhood?
864
01:01:32,439 --> 01:01:34,976
Don't you guys have kind of a curfew
out there?
865
01:01:35,066 --> 01:01:36,522
How you doing, Pop?
866
01:01:37,944 --> 01:01:38,934
You know.
867
01:01:44,034 --> 01:01:46,321
That was a hell of a time
to borrow money from you, Pop,
868
01:01:46,411 --> 01:01:48,118
with the strike and all.
869
01:01:48,288 --> 01:01:50,950
I talked to Maxie.
I'm gonna get my hours back.
870
01:01:51,208 --> 01:01:52,573
They let you go?
871
01:01:53,335 --> 01:01:54,541
No, not yet.
872
01:01:55,503 --> 01:01:57,335
They will, though, tomorrow.
873
01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:00,422
I've just been kidding myself, Pop.
874
01:02:00,467 --> 01:02:03,300
I mean, no one needs some hack
from South Philly.
875
01:02:03,511 --> 01:02:06,469
These guys are playing
the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
876
01:02:06,556 --> 01:02:08,968
Roger Staubach,
Ed Jones, Randy White.
877
01:02:10,352 --> 01:02:13,094
They need a football player.
They don't need me.
878
01:02:14,231 --> 01:02:15,562
Look, Vince...
879
01:02:15,649 --> 01:02:19,108
Look, it was gonna happen
sooner rather than later, Pop, right?
880
01:02:19,277 --> 01:02:21,735
I'm just tired of letting everybody down.
881
01:02:21,905 --> 01:02:23,737
You know, Sharon, the school.
882
01:02:23,823 --> 01:02:27,487
And everything that's going on
with you and Tommy and everybody.
883
01:02:27,911 --> 01:02:30,619
I mean, that's what's gonna
make tomorrow hard.
884
01:02:35,377 --> 01:02:36,583
You know how I used to tell you
885
01:02:36,670 --> 01:02:39,162
about Van Buren
scoring that touchdown back in '48?
886
01:02:40,465 --> 01:02:41,876
Yeah, I know.
887
01:02:42,759 --> 01:02:43,794
I know.
888
01:02:46,680 --> 01:02:51,174
That touchdown got me
through 30 years at that factory.
889
01:02:52,185 --> 01:02:55,177
Got me through all those times
your mother being sick.
890
01:02:58,858 --> 01:03:02,317
When I told you
not to get your hopes up,
891
01:03:04,531 --> 01:03:06,568
didn't mean that I wasn't.
892
01:03:08,285 --> 01:03:09,275
Okay?
893
01:03:30,223 --> 01:03:33,261
Okay, so we got one receiver slot open.
894
01:03:34,269 --> 01:03:36,226
It's either Sampson or Papale.
895
01:03:36,354 --> 01:03:38,595
Let's just go around the table.
896
01:03:39,316 --> 01:03:40,727
Sampson.
897
01:03:41,318 --> 01:03:42,808
Sampson.
898
01:03:45,113 --> 01:03:46,228
Sampson.
899
01:03:46,823 --> 01:03:49,315
But it's closer
than I thought it would be.
900
01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:51,400
Sampson.
901
01:04:00,628 --> 01:04:02,539
Your job's hard enough, Dick.
902
01:04:02,922 --> 01:04:05,914
Go with a guy like Papale next year,
once you've established yourself.
903
01:04:06,009 --> 01:04:09,627
You've got Mr. Tose, the media,
everyone breathing down your neck.
904
01:04:10,055 --> 01:04:12,092
A good share of the veterans
don't even like him.
905
01:04:12,182 --> 01:04:13,468
He's got heart.
906
01:04:13,641 --> 01:04:16,554
People don't want heart, Dick.
They want wins.
907
01:04:25,779 --> 01:04:26,985
Knock, knock.
908
01:04:27,697 --> 01:04:29,438
- Hey.
- Remember us?
909
01:04:29,616 --> 01:04:30,651
Yes.
910
01:04:34,162 --> 01:04:35,448
I needed this.
911
01:04:36,122 --> 01:04:39,786
- Hey, Dad, can I try on the helmets?
- Yes. They're right over there.
912
01:04:39,876 --> 01:04:41,867
Put them back where you found them,
though, all right?
913
01:04:41,961 --> 01:04:42,951
Right.
914
01:04:43,755 --> 01:04:46,042
- They wanted to bring you dinner.
- Wow!
915
01:04:46,841 --> 01:04:48,172
I guess we're a little late.
916
01:04:48,259 --> 01:04:49,499
- No, I want it.
- No, I want it.
917
01:04:49,594 --> 01:04:51,676
No, this is great. This is great.
918
01:04:55,975 --> 01:04:59,309
- You look exhausted.
- Well, thank you.
919
01:05:00,647 --> 01:05:01,978
What's going on?
920
01:05:02,732 --> 01:05:04,097
No, we're just...
921
01:05:05,110 --> 01:05:07,568
We're thinking
about letting go of Papale.
922
01:05:07,821 --> 01:05:10,188
"We"? Isn't that your decision?
923
01:05:12,617 --> 01:05:14,483
This time
it's a little different.
924
01:05:14,536 --> 01:05:17,699
But you said he was somebody
you could build a team around.
925
01:05:17,789 --> 01:05:20,827
Carol, there's a lot of other things
to consider here.
926
01:05:25,130 --> 01:05:28,668
What was it that you used to say
to your kids at Hillsdale High?
927
01:05:28,758 --> 01:05:31,625
That character is tested
when you're up against it?
928
01:05:32,220 --> 01:05:33,210
Yeah.
929
01:05:33,346 --> 01:05:36,714
And that's not the problem here.
He's got plenty of character.
930
01:05:36,850 --> 01:05:38,932
Who said I was talking about him?
931
01:05:52,198 --> 01:05:54,439
Papale, coach wants to see you.
932
01:05:56,703 --> 01:05:57,738
Hey.
933
01:05:59,622 --> 01:06:01,238
- About time he's out of here.
- Yeah.
934
01:06:01,332 --> 01:06:03,289
Got ourselves a roster. Hear that?
935
01:06:04,586 --> 01:06:05,951
Good times, baby.
936
01:06:10,842 --> 01:06:12,458
- Hey, coach.
- Hey, Vince.
937
01:06:12,552 --> 01:06:14,384
Come on in. Close the door.
938
01:06:24,564 --> 01:06:26,771
We haven't had much of a chance
to talk, have we?
939
01:06:26,858 --> 01:06:27,973
Not really.
940
01:06:30,445 --> 01:06:31,901
How you holding up?
941
01:06:32,155 --> 01:06:34,863
Well, couple bumps here and there,
nothing bad.
942
01:06:35,825 --> 01:06:38,442
So, how you doing, coach?
You hanging in okay?
943
01:06:41,122 --> 01:06:43,113
Couple of bumps here and there.
944
01:06:44,918 --> 01:06:45,953
I'm all right.
945
01:06:46,044 --> 01:06:48,877
It's not college, that's for sure.
Everything about it's a little...
946
01:06:48,922 --> 01:06:51,414
A little faster, little harder.
947
01:06:52,091 --> 01:06:53,752
I'm sure you can relate.
948
01:06:55,553 --> 01:06:59,137
Just wanna thank you for sticking
with me for this long, coach.
949
01:07:06,314 --> 01:07:09,227
Why don't you hang on to that
for a few more months?
950
01:07:15,698 --> 01:07:17,280
Welcome to the Eagles.
951
01:07:32,382 --> 01:07:35,795
When's the last time you've gone
two days without you needing a jump?
952
01:07:35,843 --> 01:07:38,301
- Sorry. I tried Pete.
- Are you kidding me?
953
01:07:39,305 --> 01:07:42,297
His car's worse than yours.
You'd both be stuck here.
954
01:07:44,644 --> 01:07:46,009
Your cable's good.
955
01:07:49,357 --> 01:07:51,189
Looks like you got a charge.
956
01:07:52,944 --> 01:07:55,481
Hey, buddy,
you sure this thing won't start?
957
01:07:58,616 --> 01:07:59,902
You kidding me?
958
01:08:02,870 --> 01:08:05,703
- You kidding with me right now?
- Nope.
959
01:08:08,334 --> 01:08:10,496
You're a freaking Eagle, aren't you?
960
01:08:10,837 --> 01:08:13,420
You're a freaking Philadelphia Eagle!
961
01:08:15,133 --> 01:08:18,251
- I wanted you to know first.
- This is huge.
962
01:08:18,511 --> 01:08:20,593
This is bigger than when
Tony Pantalano came back from Nam
963
01:08:20,680 --> 01:08:22,170
with the Bronze Star.
964
01:08:23,224 --> 01:08:24,589
Give me the keys.
965
01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:28,973
Let's go to Max's. You're buying.
966
01:08:29,856 --> 01:08:30,891
Hey.
967
01:08:31,024 --> 01:08:33,891
So, how you doing with the strike
and everything? You all right?
968
01:08:33,985 --> 01:08:35,191
I'm good now.
969
01:08:36,446 --> 01:08:37,652
I'm good now.
970
01:08:41,868 --> 01:08:43,859
Philadelphia Eagles!
971
01:08:44,287 --> 01:08:45,652
Yo, get in here!
972
01:08:47,373 --> 01:08:48,704
He's at the 40.
973
01:08:48,750 --> 01:08:51,082
- He's at the 30.
- Yo, look who it is. Yo!
974
01:08:51,169 --> 01:08:52,534
He's at the 20.
975
01:08:52,587 --> 01:08:58,208
Number 83, Vince Papale
of the Philadelphia Eagles!
976
01:09:00,762 --> 01:09:03,845
- My bartender, right here.
- Congratulations.
977
01:09:03,973 --> 01:09:05,930
I was gonna call you this week.
978
01:09:07,852 --> 01:09:11,390
E-A-G-L-E-S, Eagles!
979
01:09:13,399 --> 01:09:16,733
Yo! You!
Harold Carmichael, Bill Bergey.
980
01:09:16,819 --> 01:09:18,401
You're gonna be playing
with these guys.
981
01:09:18,446 --> 01:09:19,686
That's right.
982
01:09:20,239 --> 01:09:21,400
You did it.
983
01:09:23,910 --> 01:09:26,447
Your seats are gonna be
so much better than ours this year.
984
01:09:26,537 --> 01:09:28,528
Yeah, don't go giving mine away,
all right?
985
01:09:28,581 --> 01:09:30,618
I know where you're sitting.
986
01:09:32,835 --> 01:09:33,916
Kingie.
987
01:09:37,757 --> 01:09:40,249
- Hey, Pop.
- Come here.
988
01:09:41,636 --> 01:09:43,968
Stevie Van Buren's got nothing on you.
989
01:09:44,305 --> 01:09:46,012
Thanks, Pop.
990
01:09:46,099 --> 01:09:48,636
Maxie, line 'em up. It's my turn to buy.
991
01:09:59,862 --> 01:10:02,149
- From the Eagle's dad?
- From the Eagle.
992
01:10:14,502 --> 01:10:17,540
- Thanks, Maxie. Tonight was great.
- Forget it.
993
01:10:18,965 --> 01:10:22,458
There is something important
I wanna talk to you about, though.
994
01:10:22,969 --> 01:10:26,633
I've decided you can pay me back
anytime you want.
995
01:10:27,682 --> 01:10:28,843
First check.
996
01:10:30,309 --> 01:10:32,391
- I'm proud of you, Vince.
- Thanks.
997
01:10:33,438 --> 01:10:36,226
Let me ask you a question, Maxie.
About Johnny.
998
01:10:37,358 --> 01:10:41,317
He's scared, that's all.
Put yourself in his place.
999
01:10:41,738 --> 01:10:43,820
I don't even know what's going on,
you know, in his mind.
1000
01:10:43,906 --> 01:10:46,489
I mean, he's been doing nothing
but riding me the past few weeks.
1001
01:10:46,534 --> 01:10:47,774
Yeah, I know.
1002
01:10:49,662 --> 01:10:51,528
He thinks you're gonna leave.
1003
01:10:52,206 --> 01:10:53,822
This is the worst time in his life
right now.
1004
01:10:53,916 --> 01:10:55,953
He's got no job. He's got no family.
1005
01:10:56,002 --> 01:10:57,367
He's just got us.
1006
01:10:58,254 --> 01:10:59,619
You're one of us.
1007
01:11:00,673 --> 01:11:02,960
You know how it works in South Philly.
1008
01:11:03,217 --> 01:11:05,754
Our strength has always been
in our numbers.
1009
01:11:17,565 --> 01:11:18,851
Give it to me.
1010
01:11:38,211 --> 01:11:40,578
That's right.
Get your game face on.
1011
01:12:04,570 --> 01:12:06,231
Must have been something I ate.
1012
01:12:07,448 --> 01:12:09,940
Oh, yeah. Room service.
1013
01:12:10,993 --> 01:12:12,233
Definitely.
1014
01:12:23,089 --> 01:12:24,750
Cowboy fans...
1015
01:12:40,273 --> 01:12:43,937
Blue skies, 81 degrees,
a great day for the season opener.
1016
01:12:44,026 --> 01:12:45,357
- There he is.
- No one's expecting miracles today,
1017
01:12:46,612 --> 01:12:48,353
But all eyes will be
on coach Dick Vermeil's team
1018
01:12:48,447 --> 01:12:51,155
as they take on
the defending NFC champions.
1019
01:12:56,122 --> 01:12:57,157
Come on.
1020
01:13:10,803 --> 01:13:12,885
And now the crowd
welcomes Tom Landry,
1021
01:13:12,972 --> 01:13:14,588
NFC Coach of the Year.
1022
01:13:16,851 --> 01:13:18,888
Come on, guys. Come on. Come on.
1023
01:13:23,900 --> 01:13:25,311
Philadelphia calls it.
1024
01:13:25,401 --> 01:13:27,483
- Heads.
- Philadelphia calls heads.
1025
01:13:28,654 --> 01:13:30,019
- Tails.
- We want the ball.
1026
01:13:30,114 --> 01:13:32,230
- Dallas will receive.
- All right, kick team.
1027
01:13:32,325 --> 01:13:33,315
Let's go.
1028
01:13:36,329 --> 01:13:38,536
Bring it in here. Come on, come on.
1029
01:13:38,623 --> 01:13:41,706
- Attack on three. One, two, three.
- Attack!
1030
01:13:44,879 --> 01:13:46,119
Let's go win!
1031
01:13:46,797 --> 01:13:48,504
Watch your outsides!
1032
01:13:48,591 --> 01:13:51,834
Watch your lanes. Watch your lanes.
1033
01:13:55,848 --> 01:13:58,715
- Go, Vinnie.
- All right, here we go.
1034
01:13:58,976 --> 01:14:00,011
There he is.
1035
01:14:05,483 --> 01:14:08,350
And the first game
of the regular season is underway.
1036
01:14:29,966 --> 01:14:31,331
Let's go, defense!
1037
01:14:38,224 --> 01:14:41,057
Rookie Vince Papale
had an absolute bead on the runner,
1038
01:14:41,102 --> 01:14:43,594
but he froze
like a deer in the headlights.
1039
01:14:44,188 --> 01:14:45,678
Oh, man, that wasn't good.
1040
01:14:52,363 --> 01:14:54,570
All right, let's go, guys. Let's go.
1041
01:14:54,657 --> 01:14:56,273
- Sorry, coach.
- You're sorry?
1042
01:14:56,367 --> 01:14:58,028
I stuck my neck out for you.
1043
01:14:58,077 --> 01:15:00,569
You start playing football
or you're gone.
1044
01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:09,160
Losers!
1045
01:15:21,392 --> 01:15:22,757
What happened, coach?
1046
01:15:22,852 --> 01:15:24,388
- We missed the wedge.
- He froze.
1047
01:15:24,437 --> 01:15:25,973
He got outside us.
1048
01:15:31,444 --> 01:15:33,981
Blue 17. Set.
1049
01:15:34,071 --> 01:15:35,311
Hut! Hut!
1050
01:15:41,037 --> 01:15:42,653
Yeah. Yeah.
1051
01:15:58,971 --> 01:16:01,713
We lose all six
of our preseason games, now this.
1052
01:16:03,976 --> 01:16:05,137
0 and 7.
1053
01:16:05,478 --> 01:16:08,186
It's not exactly
the direction I was hoping for.
1054
01:16:19,158 --> 01:16:20,489
It'll get better. Come on.
1055
01:16:20,576 --> 01:16:22,817
Could be
another long season, Eagle fans.
1056
01:16:22,870 --> 01:16:25,658
Not only was the team
no match at all for the Cowboys,
1057
01:16:25,748 --> 01:16:29,366
but South Philly's Vince Papale
was a total bust in his pro debut.
1058
01:16:29,835 --> 01:16:32,247
Coach Dick Vermeil's heart
may have been in the right place,
1059
01:16:32,338 --> 01:16:35,797
but this team needs players right now,
not 30-year-old bartenders.
1060
01:17:09,708 --> 01:17:10,698
Hey.
1061
01:17:11,669 --> 01:17:12,659
Hey.
1062
01:17:13,212 --> 01:17:14,873
What are you doing here?
1063
01:17:14,964 --> 01:17:16,705
I was just walking around.
1064
01:17:19,552 --> 01:17:21,543
I needed to tell you something.
1065
01:17:21,720 --> 01:17:24,587
- You know that night at Colombo's, I...
- You don't need to explain.
1066
01:17:24,682 --> 01:17:26,138
I know, but please.
1067
01:17:27,518 --> 01:17:30,636
It wasn't that I was just thinking
about that one thing.
1068
01:17:31,397 --> 01:17:34,230
I was just scared because
I knew the way I could feel about you,
1069
01:17:34,275 --> 01:17:36,733
and it was just too soon.
At least for me.
1070
01:17:38,904 --> 01:17:41,066
I don't know what's gonna happen
with all this.
1071
01:17:41,157 --> 01:17:43,398
Even if I never got to see you again,
1072
01:17:43,826 --> 01:17:46,659
you go off, you get married,
you have five kids,
1073
01:17:49,206 --> 01:17:51,664
I just wanted to let you know how I felt.
1074
01:17:54,712 --> 01:17:55,998
I can't, Vince.
1075
01:18:00,551 --> 01:18:01,541
Yeah.
1076
01:18:03,262 --> 01:18:05,378
Well, maybe I'll see you at work?
1077
01:18:19,236 --> 01:18:21,978
If we run into that this week,
and there's a good chance we will,
1078
01:18:22,072 --> 01:18:24,530
we'll work deep to short,
high/low the corner.
1079
01:18:24,617 --> 01:18:27,905
The corner bites, first option
will be Carmichael. Okay?
1080
01:18:27,953 --> 01:18:29,944
If he falls off, Mike,
you stick your foot in the ground
1081
01:18:30,039 --> 01:18:31,950
and you get rid of the ball fast.
1082
01:18:31,999 --> 01:18:35,242
You hesitated last week. We can't
afford it. Charlie will be right here.
1083
01:18:35,294 --> 01:18:38,002
Take the short man
if the long man's not there.
1084
01:18:38,422 --> 01:18:41,335
We can't hesitate, guys.
Let's take what the defense gives us
1085
01:18:41,425 --> 01:18:42,711
and let's move the chains.
1086
01:18:46,972 --> 01:18:49,634
Hustle, hustle, Jared. Go deep.
1087
01:18:49,683 --> 01:18:51,139
Oh, come on.
1088
01:18:52,102 --> 01:18:54,844
- Ball, ball!
- Oh. I got you, I got you.
1089
01:18:54,939 --> 01:18:56,020
Got it!
1090
01:18:57,441 --> 01:18:58,806
Wait up! Wait up!
1091
01:19:38,065 --> 01:19:39,305
Go, go, go.
1092
01:19:39,358 --> 01:19:40,393
Bring it on!
1093
01:19:40,484 --> 01:19:41,519
Yeah!
1094
01:19:42,736 --> 01:19:43,817
Come on. Go, go.
1095
01:19:43,862 --> 01:19:46,194
Take your boy back.
Take your boy back.
1096
01:19:48,575 --> 01:19:49,656
- Mick.
- What?
1097
01:19:49,702 --> 01:19:52,114
What's up with that? Huh? Mick.
1098
01:19:52,204 --> 01:19:54,115
What? Was that, like, a late hit?
1099
01:19:54,206 --> 01:19:55,492
What'd I do?
1100
01:19:55,541 --> 01:19:56,702
Let's go.
1101
01:19:59,503 --> 01:20:01,744
Time-out, Mick!
All right, come on, let's go.
1102
01:20:02,965 --> 01:20:05,297
- Everybody over to the side.
- Oh, dear.
1103
01:20:05,384 --> 01:20:07,250
Hustle up. Let's go. Hustle.
1104
01:20:07,344 --> 01:20:09,176
You gotta hit him low, man.
1105
01:20:13,225 --> 01:20:14,681
What are you doing here?
1106
01:20:14,727 --> 01:20:16,934
You come to watch us
get dragged through the mud?
1107
01:20:17,021 --> 01:20:18,932
No, I was just driving around.
1108
01:20:20,065 --> 01:20:21,305
You know, Vince,
1109
01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:24,438
I don't know how much longer
the Eagles are gonna need you,
1110
01:20:24,528 --> 01:20:27,361
but your friends could use a little help.
1111
01:20:30,075 --> 01:20:32,692
I got a game this weekend.
I can't, Johnny.
1112
01:20:34,621 --> 01:20:36,328
Come on now, guys.
Come on now.
1113
01:20:36,415 --> 01:20:38,577
Get in there.
1114
01:20:38,792 --> 01:20:40,032
Shake it off.
1115
01:20:43,172 --> 01:20:44,662
I'm not throwing you the ball at all.
It's my ball.
1116
01:20:45,924 --> 01:20:48,256
Come on, we got this.
Come on, come on. I mean, we got this.
1117
01:20:48,302 --> 01:20:49,588
- Come on, baby.
- We got this.
1118
01:20:49,678 --> 01:20:51,589
Tone, you're down. Pat, you're in.
Let's go.
1119
01:20:53,515 --> 01:20:55,973
Come on.
Put the ball into play. Let's go.
1120
01:20:59,605 --> 01:21:02,688
- Knock his teeth out.
- I got you, man.
1121
01:21:20,292 --> 01:21:22,579
- Let's go, man.
- Let's go. Let's play.
1122
01:21:22,628 --> 01:21:24,460
- Come on, let's go.
- Line up.
1123
01:21:26,173 --> 01:21:27,538
So what? It don't matter.
1124
01:21:27,633 --> 01:21:29,419
You're nuts, you know that?
1125
01:21:30,469 --> 01:21:31,959
- What's up, Max?
- What's up, Vince?
1126
01:21:32,012 --> 01:21:33,377
Good to see you.
1127
01:21:35,015 --> 01:21:36,756
Let's just play some ball.
1128
01:21:42,147 --> 01:21:45,731
We're gonna pass
through the rain and you can't stop us.
1129
01:21:56,662 --> 01:21:57,868
Down!
1130
01:21:58,664 --> 01:22:00,575
Set. Hut!
1131
01:22:36,034 --> 01:22:37,149
Huddle up.
1132
01:22:38,287 --> 01:22:39,402
On one.
1133
01:22:39,496 --> 01:22:41,658
- Ready? Break.
- Break.
1134
01:23:03,854 --> 01:23:06,312
Vince, you okay?
1135
01:23:07,608 --> 01:23:09,940
Never better, Maxie. Never better.
1136
01:23:17,284 --> 01:23:19,150
Play ball!
1137
01:23:28,295 --> 01:23:29,535
Down!
1138
01:23:30,047 --> 01:23:32,334
Set. Hut.
1139
01:23:50,359 --> 01:23:51,724
Yes!
1140
01:23:58,742 --> 01:24:00,232
Yeah!
1141
01:24:02,329 --> 01:24:03,410
Yeah.
1142
01:24:04,831 --> 01:24:05,912
Yes!
1143
01:24:09,670 --> 01:24:11,786
- Good try, all right?
- Definitely.
1144
01:24:11,838 --> 01:24:13,203
Good game, guys.
1145
01:24:14,466 --> 01:24:17,629
Come on. Come on, let's get a drink.
Let's get a drink.
1146
01:24:17,678 --> 01:24:19,544
Tanker boys are buying again.
1147
01:24:19,638 --> 01:24:21,925
- Good game, guys.
- Yo, Vince.
1148
01:24:24,184 --> 01:24:26,642
Even if this is your last game
with the Eagles,
1149
01:24:26,728 --> 01:24:29,345
win one for the boys
in the neighborhood, huh?
1150
01:24:32,943 --> 01:24:34,024
Hey!
1151
01:24:47,082 --> 01:24:48,413
- Hi.
- Hey.
1152
01:24:48,667 --> 01:24:49,782
Vince...
1153
01:24:50,168 --> 01:24:52,159
Oh, my God, are you all...
1154
01:24:52,462 --> 01:24:54,078
- What happened?
- No, it's nothing.
1155
01:24:54,172 --> 01:24:57,506
Maxie and the boys needed a little help
with the game tonight.
1156
01:24:57,593 --> 01:24:58,958
You're the help?
1157
01:24:59,845 --> 01:25:01,711
What do those guys look like?
1158
01:25:01,972 --> 01:25:04,134
It's good to see you. How you doing?
1159
01:25:04,975 --> 01:25:06,431
I'm good.
1160
01:25:09,354 --> 01:25:11,345
What you said the other night...
1161
01:25:14,151 --> 01:25:17,394
I don't know, I guess
I needed a couple days to hear it.
1162
01:25:18,280 --> 01:25:20,942
So if you still...
1163
01:25:26,788 --> 01:25:28,028
I wasn't done.
1164
01:25:34,212 --> 01:25:35,702
I can finish later.
1165
01:25:43,597 --> 01:25:44,803
Morning.
1166
01:25:48,393 --> 01:25:49,633
Get any sleep?
1167
01:25:51,855 --> 01:25:53,220
Not too much.
1168
01:25:54,399 --> 01:25:55,889
Neither did I.
1169
01:26:00,822 --> 01:26:01,903
Well, look at it this way.
1170
01:26:01,948 --> 01:26:05,612
If it doesn't work out, at least
we'll have a great lawn back in LA.
1171
01:26:08,789 --> 01:26:10,075
Give 'em hell.
1172
01:26:28,934 --> 01:26:30,516
- Wanna get out of my seat?
- Hey!
1173
01:26:31,812 --> 01:26:35,180
- I said, get out of my seat.
- Hey! Hey!
1174
01:26:37,693 --> 01:26:38,899
Come on.
1175
01:26:38,944 --> 01:26:41,276
- Never mind.
- Thank you.
1176
01:26:41,780 --> 01:26:44,693
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Get her out of here!
1177
01:26:44,783 --> 01:26:47,241
Hey. She's with us. Relax.
1178
01:26:48,870 --> 01:26:50,736
You're not a real Eagles fan.
1179
01:26:50,789 --> 01:26:51,904
- E-A...
- Shut your mouth!
1180
01:26:51,957 --> 01:26:53,118
- ...G-L...
- Shut your mouth.
1181
01:26:53,166 --> 01:26:55,123
- ...E-S.
- Go, Giants.
1182
01:26:59,131 --> 01:27:03,090
A team with character will find a way
to beat a team with better talent.
1183
01:27:03,301 --> 01:27:04,587
I believe that.
1184
01:27:04,970 --> 01:27:08,383
And you guys are not the team
that's short on talent here today.
1185
01:27:08,473 --> 01:27:11,841
And I swear you'll never again
be the team short on character.
1186
01:27:12,310 --> 01:27:14,847
We need to find
the soul of this team again.
1187
01:27:15,230 --> 01:27:17,562
The soul that drove
great Eagle players.
1188
01:27:17,816 --> 01:27:19,807
Players like Norm Van Brocklin,
1189
01:27:20,485 --> 01:27:23,819
Tommy McDonald, Steve Van Buren.
1190
01:27:24,322 --> 01:27:28,316
They weren't just out here playing
for themselves. They played for a city.
1191
01:27:28,368 --> 01:27:30,655
People of Philadelphia have suffered.
1192
01:27:30,787 --> 01:27:33,404
You are what they turn to
in times like these.
1193
01:27:33,665 --> 01:27:35,781
You are what gives them hope.
1194
01:27:41,548 --> 01:27:43,164
Let's win one for them.
1195
01:27:46,595 --> 01:27:47,960
Let's win one for us. Bring it in.
1196
01:27:52,517 --> 01:27:54,599
- One, two, three.
- Eagles!
1197
01:28:01,401 --> 01:28:02,766
We're the Eagles.
1198
01:28:20,837 --> 01:28:22,327
Ladies and gentlemen,
1199
01:28:22,380 --> 01:28:26,044
let's welcome
your Philadelphia Eagles.
1200
01:28:27,385 --> 01:28:29,217
The Eagles
now receiving a mixed greeting
1201
01:28:29,262 --> 01:28:30,468
from the fans here at the Vet.
1202
01:28:30,555 --> 01:28:32,887
No surprise,
given the start to their season.
1203
01:28:32,933 --> 01:28:35,516
Six consecutive losses
in the preseason,
1204
01:28:35,602 --> 01:28:38,219
followed by last Sunday's
embarrassing loss in Dallas.
1205
01:28:38,313 --> 01:28:39,394
Break.
1206
01:28:39,481 --> 01:28:41,768
Special teams were a disaster
last weekend.
1207
01:28:41,858 --> 01:28:44,691
If the Eagles are to have
any shot today,
1208
01:28:44,736 --> 01:28:48,320
they need to make a statement
right here and right now.
1209
01:29:04,673 --> 01:29:05,913
No return.
1210
01:29:11,096 --> 01:29:13,178
And the kick is away.
1211
01:29:17,769 --> 01:29:19,760
It is taken near the goal line.
1212
01:29:27,529 --> 01:29:29,520
What a hit to start things off.
1213
01:29:29,614 --> 01:29:33,448
Vince Papale putting the Giants
back inside their own 15.
1214
01:29:36,538 --> 01:29:38,996
He's pointing at me.
He's pointing at me.
1215
01:29:39,082 --> 01:29:43,121
What a turnaround from last week,
when Papale could do nothing right.
1216
01:29:45,589 --> 01:29:47,830
There you go. Good speed.
Nice, Vince.
1217
01:29:48,091 --> 01:29:49,502
All right, baby,
this one's for...
1218
01:29:49,593 --> 01:29:51,254
What a hit, baby.
What a hit.
1219
01:29:51,303 --> 01:29:52,418
All right, let's go.
1220
01:29:55,348 --> 01:29:56,383
53...
1221
01:30:01,396 --> 01:30:03,182
Red 32. Hut.
1222
01:30:10,238 --> 01:30:12,650
27. Hut, hike.
1223
01:30:16,411 --> 01:30:17,401
Hut.
1224
01:30:19,581 --> 01:30:21,663
Craig Morton,
rolling out to the right.
1225
01:30:21,708 --> 01:30:24,166
He's got an open receiver
in the end zone.
1226
01:30:24,836 --> 01:30:26,622
Touchdown, Giants.
1227
01:30:27,714 --> 01:30:29,455
And New York draws first blood.
1228
01:30:30,675 --> 01:30:32,507
- This is our house.
- Sit down!
1229
01:30:32,594 --> 01:30:33,755
Hey. Hey.
1230
01:30:34,304 --> 01:30:37,012
I told you, Andy, one more time.
Come here.
1231
01:30:38,683 --> 01:30:39,673
Hut.
1232
01:30:44,272 --> 01:30:45,262
Hut.
1233
01:30:52,197 --> 01:30:55,064
Okay, we're gonna go far left for 28,
pass right. Okay?
1234
01:30:55,158 --> 01:30:56,990
Come on, Mike,
take care of that ball!
1235
01:30:57,035 --> 01:30:58,116
Hut.
1236
01:31:02,165 --> 01:31:03,951
Boryla
with a nice play-action fake,
1237
01:31:04,042 --> 01:31:05,953
looking, moving out to his right.
1238
01:31:07,212 --> 01:31:08,702
He's got Carmichael.
1239
01:31:09,381 --> 01:31:10,712
- Touchdown, Eagles.
- Yes!
1240
01:31:10,757 --> 01:31:11,747
No!
1241
01:31:13,176 --> 01:31:15,338
- Yeah, yeah.
- Yeah!
1242
01:31:15,470 --> 01:31:18,337
Eagles and Giants now deadlocked
at 7-7.
1243
01:31:18,390 --> 01:31:20,301
Let's get some points up.
1244
01:31:21,726 --> 01:31:23,717
Stick him, T.J. Come on.
1245
01:31:39,995 --> 01:31:42,737
A brilliant open-field tackle by Papale.
1246
01:31:44,374 --> 01:31:45,739
That was Papale!
1247
01:31:47,794 --> 01:31:48,784
Yeah.
1248
01:31:49,462 --> 01:31:51,169
Somebody block that guy.
1249
01:31:56,469 --> 01:31:59,336
That's the way it's done. That's football.
1250
01:32:01,307 --> 01:32:02,297
Yeah.
1251
01:32:06,021 --> 01:32:08,228
Eagles! Eagles! Eagles!
1252
01:32:08,273 --> 01:32:10,389
And listen
to this crowd right now.
1253
01:32:10,442 --> 01:32:11,648
Eagles! Eagles! Eagles!
1254
01:32:11,735 --> 01:32:13,897
How long has it been
since we've heard that?
1255
01:32:17,032 --> 01:32:19,023
The Eagles, drawing new life
from this crowd.
1256
01:32:19,117 --> 01:32:22,280
But this game has become
what we knew it would be all along,
1257
01:32:22,370 --> 01:32:26,113
a grind-it-out defensive struggle
in which every yard is hard to get.
1258
01:32:29,502 --> 01:32:32,460
Again, the Eagles have been
completely shut down.
1259
01:32:33,465 --> 01:32:35,126
Hut.
1260
01:32:51,816 --> 01:32:54,057
- Punt, punt.
- Come on, team, let's go.
1261
01:32:54,360 --> 01:32:55,976
- Andy! Andy.
- It's Frank.
1262
01:32:56,029 --> 01:32:58,316
Okay, Frank, they're holding
my receivers all day long.
1263
01:32:58,406 --> 01:33:01,865
Eight minutes to go, fourth quarter,
game tied at 14 apiece.
1264
01:33:49,874 --> 01:33:52,491
Late in the game now,
only a minute 20 to play,
1265
01:33:52,544 --> 01:33:56,503
and the Eagles facing a key third
and 10 from their own five-yard line.
1266
01:33:59,801 --> 01:34:03,169
Sullivan hit in the backfield.
Now finding some running room.
1267
01:34:19,612 --> 01:34:20,647
Yeah!
1268
01:34:20,738 --> 01:34:23,275
And he's brought down
very close to a first down.
1269
01:34:26,911 --> 01:34:29,573
Official time-out for a measurement.
- Come on.
1270
01:34:29,622 --> 01:34:31,158
Now, if the Eagles pick up
the first down,
1271
01:34:31,249 --> 01:34:34,583
they'll still have a long way to go
for a go-ahead score.
1272
01:34:37,088 --> 01:34:38,123
It's short.
1273
01:34:38,214 --> 01:34:39,420
- Yeah!
- Damn.
1274
01:34:39,465 --> 01:34:40,671
Denied!
1275
01:34:40,758 --> 01:34:43,546
And they are short by inches.
1276
01:34:44,345 --> 01:34:45,585
- Fourth down.
- Yeah.
1277
01:34:45,680 --> 01:34:46,761
Punt team.
1278
01:34:48,474 --> 01:34:49,589
Tight punt.
1279
01:34:55,231 --> 01:34:57,268
Eagle fans are not happy
with the decision to punt,
1280
01:34:57,317 --> 01:34:59,934
but Vermeil,
not taking any chances here.
1281
01:34:59,986 --> 01:35:01,897
Now hoping for overtime.
1282
01:35:02,614 --> 01:35:04,446
Relax, relax.
1283
01:35:04,782 --> 01:35:05,943
Listen up. Tight punt.
1284
01:35:06,034 --> 01:35:07,320
Good job. Keep it safe. Safe.
1285
01:35:08,578 --> 01:35:11,115
- This is a huge play for both teams.
- Break.
1286
01:35:11,164 --> 01:35:13,997
No room for mistakes on either side.
1287
01:35:14,626 --> 01:35:16,958
Watch for the Giants
to go for the block.
1288
01:35:17,003 --> 01:35:18,585
I'm coming in, baby.
1289
01:35:18,671 --> 01:35:21,003
- 61. 61.
- Overload right.
1290
01:35:22,800 --> 01:35:24,086
Come on, baby.
1291
01:35:26,095 --> 01:35:27,631
Come on. We got this.
1292
01:35:30,642 --> 01:35:32,633
- Check Zorro. Check Zorro.
- What?
1293
01:35:32,685 --> 01:35:34,050
What did he call?
1294
01:35:35,230 --> 01:35:36,812
Check Zorro. Check Zorro.
1295
01:35:36,898 --> 01:35:37,933
It appears the Eagles
1296
01:35:37,982 --> 01:35:39,063
are calling a last-second audible
1297
01:35:39,150 --> 01:35:40,436
changing the play.
1298
01:35:40,485 --> 01:35:41,771
Check, check.
1299
01:35:41,861 --> 01:35:43,898
- What the hell is he doing?
- Here we go, Vince.
1300
01:35:43,988 --> 01:35:45,820
- Watch the fake.
- First down.
1301
01:35:52,038 --> 01:35:53,028
Yeah!
1302
01:35:53,122 --> 01:35:55,830
And Papale with a tremendous break
on the ball.
1303
01:36:04,801 --> 01:36:05,916
Fumble.
1304
01:36:06,177 --> 01:36:07,167
Yeah!
1305
01:36:13,268 --> 01:36:14,303
Come on, Vince.
1306
01:36:17,605 --> 01:36:19,016
He got the ball!
1307
01:36:23,695 --> 01:36:26,312
- Come on, Vince!
- Go.
1308
01:36:32,787 --> 01:36:35,495
- Papale's at the 40.
- Come on, Vince.
1309
01:36:35,540 --> 01:36:39,033
The 30. The 20. The 10.
1310
01:36:43,047 --> 01:36:45,038
- Oh, my God.
- Go, go, go!
1311
01:36:45,091 --> 01:36:46,206
That's it.
1312
01:36:53,182 --> 01:36:54,764
- Yes!
- Unbelievable.
1313
01:36:54,851 --> 01:36:56,888
This is just unbelievable.
1314
01:37:01,983 --> 01:37:03,098
- Yes!
- Yeah.
1315
01:37:03,192 --> 01:37:04,432
That's my boy!
1316
01:37:25,923 --> 01:37:27,630
That's your boy, Kingie.
1317
01:37:40,396 --> 01:37:42,763
That's the sound
we've been looking for.
1318
01:37:48,654 --> 01:37:50,861
- Yes!
- Go! Go! Go!
1319
01:37:50,948 --> 01:37:53,155
- Yes!
- Oh, yeah!
1320
01:37:53,242 --> 01:37:54,903
Go, Vince.
