Buddy: [as he and Santiago drive around] So you're ready for the game tonight? You may see some playing time tonight, son.
Santiago: What the hell's the point of all this?
Buddy: What'd you say, Santiago?
Santiago: I can't do it.
Buddy: What?
Santiago: What do you care if I play, huh? You don't know me. You're not my pops! You don't know nothing about me. You're just some fat white guy who wants to make himself feel good, that's what you are. And I don't need nothing from you, all right? I don't need to work at your car dealership and I sure as hell don't need football!
[Buddy pulls over the car]
Buddy: Shut that door. Shut the door! I'll tell you what, you want to go back to that cafeteria eating off of plastic with 200 guys going nowhere, you be my guest, son. Now listen to me. Tonight is your night. You have an opportunity to go out there and accept the challenge. You have the opportunity to become part of a team. If you don't do it tonight, then you're never gonna do it in your entire life. Now, I'm goin' to the field. So you get out, be my guest.
Santiago: I hate you. I hate you.
[Buddy starts driving again]
