Going to the Mat Page #6

All Right?

I'll See You

Tomorrow, Ok?

See You, Man.

I'm Fine. Doc Says

I'm Healed 100%.

It's Only Been

5 Weeks, Luke.

All Right? Let's Give It

A Little Bit More Time.

You Start Working Out

With Us Again,

But Take It Slow.

Coach, I Don't Want

To Take It Slow.

I'm Ready Now!

Let's Think About

Your Future, Ok?

You're Gonna Be Much More

Valuable To Me Next Year

As A Senior.

What's The Point Of

Risking Permanent Damage--

Coach--

We're Gonna Take

A Few More Weeks, Ok?

[School Bell Rings]

Go, Jace! Whoo!

How's It Goin',

Newfield?

All Right, Guys.

You! Newfield!

Hey, What's

Your Problem?

What's My Problem?

You Wrecked My Life--

That's My Problem!

What Are You Talking

About?

You Took My Slot,

Newfield.

Now Coach Doesn't

Wanna Give It Back!

Hey, I Earned That Spot

After You Got Hurt,

Nolan.

Now Coach Is Happy

With What I'm Doing.

So Deal With It!

[Snaps Open Cane]

What Was That

All About?

Jerk Actually Thinks

He's On The Because He's Good,

Not Because

He's Coach's Charity Case.

Well, He Has Been

Winning Lately.

You're Gonna

Defend Him Now?

Dude, I Don't Need

To Defend Him.

He Can Defend Himself.

[School Bell Rings]

Coach Rice?

Coach?

Over Here, Jace.

What's Up?

I Want A Wrestle-Off--

Me And Luke.

Winner Wins

The 145 Slot.

I've Already Told Luke

That He's Not Ready

To Come Back Yet.

Yeah, Well,

He Thinks He Is.

He Also Thinks

That's The Only Reason

You're Not

Giving Him A Chance,

Is Because You Like

Keeping Me Around Here

For The Freak Factor!

All Right, You Listen To Me.

You Listen Good.

I've Been Coaching

For 15 Years, And I Have

Never Once Made A Call

That Was Not

In The Best Interest

Of My Team.

You Wanna Think Of Yourself

As Some Kind Of Freak,

You Go Right Ahead.

What I See Is A Kid

Who's Worked His Tail Off

And Earned His Slot.

Now, Get Your Gear On,

Jace.

Step.

Thank You.

You Know,

It Really Ticks Me Off

That You Guys Are

So Quick To Question

My Father's Judgment.

You Never Stop To Think

How Hard It All Gets

For Him.

No Matter What,

Someone Always Is

Crying And Complaining

How They're Getting

Ripped Off.

You're Like A Stupid Bunch

Of Spoiled Babies.

Ok.

I Screwed Up.

Do You Want Me To Go

And Apologize?

I Don't Care.

Do What You Want.

Where Did That

Come From?

You Said...

Do What You Want.

But Hey, If It

Freaked You Out,

Then We Can Pretend Like

Nothing Ever Happened.

Jace?

Yeah?

Shut Up.

Good Idea.

[Backboard Beeping]

[Bicycle Wheels]

Fly?

Hey, I Know You're There.

Talk To Me, Man.

You Really Want To

Avoid Me,

You Gotta Quit Wearing

That Stanky Deodorant.

Man, You And

Your Supersonic Senses!

Ow!

Hey, Man,

Are You All Right?

You Ok?

Are You?

Please Tell Me

What's Goin' On.

I'm Sick Of Being

A Loser, Ok?

So You're...

Ticked At Me For Winning?

Yeah! At Least When

You Suckered Me

Into This,

We Were Both

Equally Pathetic.

But Now

I Can't Even Quit,

Or Everybody

Will Really Think

I'm A Wimp.

[Honk Honk]

Let's Go, Newfield!

Yeah, Come On, Man.

The Party's Already Started.

All Right.

I'll Be Right There.

Hey, Can We Talk

About This Later?

I Gotta--

Sure. Wouldn't Want

To Keep The Superstars

Waiting.

Fly--

Look...

I Get It, Jace.

You Don't Owe Me

Anything.

Talk To You Later, Man.

[Dry Leaves Crunch]

Didn't You Have

A Party To Go To?

I Told Them To Hit It

Without Me.

Why?

Care To Dance?

'Scuse Me?

Fly, You

Gotta Trust Me

On This One.

If It Worked For Me,

It's Gonna Work

For You.

All Right,

Here We Go, Buddy.

Ok, You Ready?

Keep Your Knees

Bent. Balance.

Ok. Step. Step.

Ok.

Step.

All Right.

Back.

And...Hip Toss.

Uh--Dude!

Hip...Toss?

Hip Toss.

Got It?

You Feeling

The Flow?

No, Man.

Actually, No Offense,

But I'd Rather Be

Dancing With Mary Beth.

Come On. One More Time.

No, No, No. Since,

You Know, You Taught Me One,

I'm Gonna Teach You One,

All Right?

So Watch This.

It's Like...

Ah...Ooh...Oh! Oh!

Fly?

Oh, Oh, Oh!

Fly. Fly.

I'm The Blind Guy.

Oh...

Yeah. Good One,

Though.

Yeah. Well, I'll Have

To Teach You That One.

One More Time.

By The Way,

In Real Life,

You Go Like This--

Aah!

Ahh...

Lookin' Good, Newfield.

Lookin' Good.

Nice Fit. Lookin' Good.

How's Yours Fittin', Fly?

I Look Like

The Team Mascot.

What?

This Thing's Humongous!

Why Don't You Take It Back

And Get A Small?

This Is A Small.

Nice Jacket, Fly.

What'd You Do,

Steal It From Somebody's

Older Brother?

It's Mine, Yardley.

Come Here--

Takedown! 2 Points!

Come On, Jace.

What'd You Do, Fly?

You're Next!

You Nailed Yardley?

Yeah, Man. Wish You

Could Have Seen It!

I Don't Get It, Coach.

The Scale Doesn't Lie.

All I Know Is This--

You Wanna Face T-Rex,

You Need To Lose 6

By Friday.

Bummer.

Tell Me.

"From Thence Forward,

"He Doubled The Pains

He Had Been At

To Instruct Me.

"He Brought Me Into

All Company

"And Made Them Treat Me

With Civility,

"Because As He Told Them

Privately,

This Would Put Me

Into Good Humor And Make

Me More Diverting."

Hey, Are You Even

Listening?

Huh?

Where's

Your Head At, Kid?

Oh. Ha. Friday's

Our Last Wrestling Meet.

And?

And I'm Amazed At How Soon

It's Gonna Be Over.

Well, Unless You

Make It Into States.

Which We Won't Unless

Lambrix Beats T-Rex...

Which He Won't Even

Get A Shot At

Unless He Loses 6 Pounds

In 2 Days.

Pressure's On, Huh?

Remind Me

Why I Wanted

To Do This.

Wow. That Was...

That Was Really, Uh...

That Was Bad.

That Was Really Bad.

No, I'm Just Kidding.

It's Ok. We Can Fix It.

Do You Wanna Learn To Play

Something For Real?

It Can't Be Harder

Than The Flute.

Oh, The Flute!

Ok. Do The Bass Drum. Go.

[Hitting Bass Drum]

Hey, We Make

A Pretty Good Team.

You Don't Want

To Do That.

I Don't?

Well, Who Do You Want

Bugged At You More--

My Daddy Or Coach?

Aren't They

The Same Guy?

Exactly.

Good Night.

Hey, Coach!

Hi, Jace.

[School Bell Rings]

Buenas Dias,

Hijos Mos.

Got About A Minute.

Hola.

Gracias.

Hey, Newfield, Did You

Read Today's Paper?

Oh, My Bad. He Can't

Unless It Has Little Bumps.

Ok, Let Me Read It

For You.

"Speaking Of This Visually

Impaired Spark Plug,

Jace Newfield,

"Coach Rice Said,

The Great Thing

About Jace Is

"Whether We're Winning

Or Losing, I Know He's

A Real Inspiration

To Every Kid

Who Sees Him Out There."

That's Funny.

He Tells Us He's Only Doing

What's Best For The Team,

But He Tells The Paper

That He's Keeping You Around

To Be His Poster Boy.

Coach! If You Don't

Put Me Into A Wrestle-Off

With Luke Nolan,

I Am Quitting,

And That's The End Of It.

Is That A Threat?

Oh.

Look--What's The Point

Of Holding On

To My Position

If I Can't Prove

Once And For All I'm

The Best Guy For That Slot?

All Right,

Let's Get This Going.

Contact Position.

Hope You Had Fun

While It Lasted.

Hope You Like Watching

The Sectionals

From The Stands.

Ready...

Come On.

Take Him, Jace!

Wrestle!

Yes!

That's A Pin!
