- Woman on PA:
Attention,

this is Principal Durant.

105

00:
05:36,836 -- 00:05:38,895

The National Hurricane Center

has just announced

106

00:
05:38,971 -- 00:05:43,135

tropical storm Katrina is headed

for the Mississippi-Louisiana coast.

107

00:
05:43,209 -- 00:05:45,370

Governor Blanco has

declared a state of emergency

108

00:
05:45,445 -- 00:05:47,345

and ordered voluntary evacuations...

109

00:
05:47,413 -- 00:05:49,404

Patriots!

Spence, get the guys over here.

110

00:
05:49,482 -- 00:05:52,417

- Come on.

- Coach, you heard what they just said?

111

00:
05:52,485 -- 00:05:54,851

Lt'll turn or get downgraded,

just like it always does.

112

00:
05:54,921 -- 00:05:56,616

All right, Coach,

but what about practice?

113

00:
05:56,689 -- 00:05:59,089

Listen to the news.

Katrina turns, we're on.

114

00:
05:59,158 -- 00:06:00,750

If she doesn't, you go.

115

00:
06:04,597 -- 00:06:06,690

Woman on TV:

The National Weather service is reporting

116

00:
06:06,766 -- 00:06:08,597

that tropical storm Katrina

117

00:
06:08,668 -- 00:06:10,192

is moving toward the Florida coast

118

00:
06:10,269 -- 00:06:13,363

and landfall is also

possible in Mississippi...

119

00:
06:13,439 -- 00:06:14,565

Al.

120

00:
06:14,640 -- 00:06:16,801

Dayna, I don't think

you need to pack.

121

00:
06:16,876 -- 00:06:18,605

[Scoffs]

We might not have to leave,

122

00:
06:18,678 -- 00:06:20,612

but we're gonna be ready just in case.

123

00:
06:20,680 -- 00:06:22,477

40 years since Betsy.

124

00:
06:22,548 -- 00:06:24,140

It'll turn, like always.

125

00:
06:24,217 -- 00:06:26,549

Daddy, I am so glad you're home.

126

00:
06:26,619 -- 00:06:29,452

Baby, it's 9:
30.

You're supposed to be in bed already.

127

00:
06:29,522 -- 00:06:31,319

You can't take all those toys with you.

128

00:
06:31,391 -- 00:06:34,622

Even if we have to leave,

you can only take your suitcase.

129

00:
06:34,694 -- 00:06:38,186

- [Muttering]

- [Radio sports playing]

130

00:
06:39,732 -- 00:06:40,892

So, Coach.

131

00:
06:40,967 -- 00:06:42,161

Mm-hmm.

132

00:
06:42,235 -- 00:06:45,136

How'd the team look this year?

133

00:
06:45,204 -- 00:06:47,764

It's the best team I ever had.

134

00:
06:47,840 -- 00:06:51,207

We're gonna win this year, Dayna.

135

00:
06:51,277 -- 00:06:52,972

We're gonna win.

136

00:
06:53,045 -- 00:06:55,809

I got the whole season planned out.

137

00:
06:55,882 -- 00:06:57,076

Right here.

138

00:
06:57,150 -- 00:07:00,745

You got a plan for everything, Coach.

139

00:
07:00,820 -- 00:07:02,378

It's beautiful, ain't it?

140

00:
07:02,455 -- 00:07:04,821

When you planning on coming to bed?

141

00:
07:04,891 -- 00:07:06,882

Just give me a minute, all right?

142

00:
07:06,959 -- 00:07:09,484

[Sighs]

Okay.

143

00:
07:09,562 -- 00:07:12,122

Don't stay up all night, hear?

144

00:
07:15,535 -- 00:07:18,095

[Muttering]

145

00:
07:21,107 -- 00:07:23,871

[Rap music playing]

146

00:
07:25,445 -- 00:07:28,005

- Hey!

- What's up with you, b*tch?

147

00:
07:28,080 -- 00:07:31,208

Footlocker is open.

148

00:
07:31,284 -- 00:07:33,616

I got some special

"get out of town" discounts.

149

00:
07:33,686 -- 00:07:36,120

- See, I told you.

- Air Max Elites,

150

00:
07:36,189 -- 00:07:39,124

go for like two bills in the store.

50 for you though.

151

00:
07:39,192 -- 00:07:42,127

- I like these. These are...

- Yeah.

152

00:
07:42,195 -- 00:07:44,095

No, no, I need a 12.

153

00:
07:44,163 -- 00:07:45,790

- 12.

- 13.

154

00:
07:45,865 -- 00:07:47,765

I'm good with that, Lamont.

155

00:
07:47,834 -- 00:07:50,394

- I'm good with 13.

- White boy.

156

00:
07:50,470 -- 00:07:53,735

No, I need a 12, Lamont.

You know my size.

157

00:
07:53,806 -- 00:07:56,798

This ain't Amazon, boy.

I got inventory issues.

158

00:
07:56,876 -- 00:07:59,504

Get outta here, Lamont,

before I call the police.

159

00:
07:59,579 -- 00:08:01,206

- Come on.

- I ain't playing.

160

00:
08:03,282 -- 00:08:05,512

Just meet me over there

in West Jeff, baby.

161

00:
08:05,585 -- 00:08:07,177

West Jeff?

On the East Bank?

162

00:
08:07,253 -- 00:08:09,653

- West Jeff.

- No, that's enemy territory.

163

00:
08:09,722 -- 00:08:12,247

- [Laughs]

- Where your loyalty at, Lamont?

164

00:
08:12,325 -- 00:08:14,759

Loyalty? Look at my loyalty, baby.

Right here.

165

00:
08:14,827 -- 00:08:17,057

I bet against y'all and I win.

166

00:
08:17,129 -- 00:08:20,621

Y'all boys couldn't break

500 if you paid the refs.

[Laughs]

167

00:
08:20,700 -- 00:08:23,134

How you gonna take my drink

168

00:
08:23,202 -- 00:08:25,466

- Give me those shoes.

- What's up, Spence.

169

00:
08:25,538 -- 00:08:27,199

The team needs you healthy, son.

08:33,980 -- 00:08:35,470

You gotta get outta here.

173

00:

We ain't going nowhere.

174

00:
08:38,150 -- 00:08:39,811

Gonna kick that Katrina ass.

175

00:
08:39,886 -- 00:08:41,285

Every person is hereby ordered

177

08:49,962 -- 00:08:53,022

Hey, bro?

Y'all think that Katrina gonna hit us?

179

00:
08:57,403 -- 00:08:58,802

Who cares, man?

180

00:
09:01,140 -- 00:09:02,505

Woman:

Let's take a look now

181

00:
