Brian Chavez: I'm gonna miss the heat.
Don Billingsley: I'm gonna miss the lights.
Brian Chavez: Yeah, me too. Stay low boys, keep those feet moving.
Don Billingsley: Hey Chavez! Be perfect.
Brian Chavez: You be perfect.
Don Billingsley: See you Mike.
Radio Listener: There's too much learning going on at that school.
Charles Billingsley: Can't hold on to the lamp, can't hold on to the football.
Don Billingsley: I can hold on to the football, Dad. Now get the hell out of here.
Don Billingsley: We're gonna get drunk, we're gonna get laid, and we're gonna win state but not tonight.
Boobie Miles: I get straight A's. I'm a athlete.
Reporter: In what subject?
Boobie Miles: Hey, there's only one subject. It's football.
Coach Gary Gaines: Everything all right?
John Aubrey: Everything's going to be just fine. Everything's all right as long as we win state.
Coach Gary Gaines: Or what?
Coach Gary Gaines: So how is it out there?
Ivory Christian: They're fast, they're big, they're dirty... plus they're fast.
Coach Gary Gaines: You said that already.
Coach Gary Gaines: Being perfect is when you can look someone in the eye and know you did not let them down.
Charles Billingsley: You just-you ain't gettin' it. You don't understand. This is the only thing you're ever gonna have. Forever, it carries you forever. It's an ugly fact of life. Donnie, hell. It's the only fact of life. You got one year, one stinkin' year to make yourself some memories, son. That's all. It's gone after that. And I'll be damned if you're not gonna miss it.
Coach Gary Gaines: Gentlemen, the hopes and dreams of an entire town are riding on your shoulders. You may never matter again in your life as much as you do right now.
Boobie Miles: Y'all wanna win? Put Boobie in.
Answer: I can only think of two possibilities. It could be that 'taking a knee' is not allowed in this division's rules. Or, getting into the heads of the coaches, their philosophy of the game could be to gain as many points as possible even in a lopsided blowout, honoring the game and continuing sportsmanlike competition to the end.
