In Football We Trust Page #5

I mean, it's affected me a lot.

You know, that's something

I didn't foresee

when I was, uh,

15 years old, you know.

It's gone full circle for me

and kicked me right in the butt.

You know, this is

something I deal with

and have to deal with

day in and day out.

Man:
Gangs or football...

both are violent,

and they both are camaraderie.

It's a continuous

struggle for sure.

Coach:
Back in ancient times

when men had to fight

for their very existence,

there was a group of men.

They called themselves

the Lords of Bruges.

They had a family motto.

It is written on the board.

"Plus est en vous."

What that translates, OK,

is "you have more to give."

So when they'd be out

on a battlefield, OK?

And they'd be hurt

and they'd be tired

and they'd start to get

knocked down,

you'd hear this cry:

"Plus est en vous!"

You have more to give!

The past is gone.

The future lays out there

at the 50-yard line.

[Crowd cheering]

[Whistles blow]

[Whistle blows]

Man:
Point. Point. Point.

Go get 'em. Go get 'em.

Go get 'em.

Go, D, go!

Game announcer:
[Indistinct]

gets the extra point.

[Players shouting]

Coach. Coach.

You got the [Indistinct] baby.

No, hey. Fihi! 23!

[Indistinct] Go get 'em!

[Players shouting]

Coach:
Nice.

Hold on. Hold on.

[Band playing]

[Whistle blows]

Come on.

Uh. Oh.

Time out!

Time out!

Yeah, yeah. Let me go.

Man:
Hey. Fihi! Fihi!

Harvey:
It just sucks having

so much pressure

on your shoulders.

Like, it feels like... like, um,

like I can barely even, like,

carry it sometimes.

Kalasita:
I travel with Harvey,

and he has so many chance.

I was so scared.

I... I... I wrote

this little thing here,

and, Paul, look at this.

If BYU offer you $280,000,

do you think you can

accept this offer?

Do you have a mouth? Say it.

OK. This money...

this money is yours, Paul.

This is yours.

How about you, Daniel?

If Stanford offer you

480,000 for 4 years,

they offer you to come

and work for them,

do you think you can take it?

This is your work.

Harvey, voice-over:

My mom, she was like,

"Harvey, drink as much water

as you can."

She bought me water,

apple juice, everything.

She's like, she was so scared...

like, what if that stuff

is still in my system, you know?

Kalasita:
Hey, Daniel,

what do you do

for them to don't accept them

and make you disqualified

to go here?

Daniel:
Grades?

OK. First is grades. OK?

Second. Harvey, Harvey.

OK, drugs, grades.

And those things,

you don't even have it.

You'll ruin it.

You don't have it

at all with you.

Understand? It's

all going to where?

Garbage. It's...

you'll ruin it so much,

and you can't go nowhere.

It's all in garbage.

Harvey, voice-over: She's like,

"If you fail this, Harvey,

all of your scholarships

are gonna be gone."

That's when it hit me.

If it is in my system

and it is positive,

then I'll just get a regular job

and be a normal person, finally,

and if it come out negative,

I'd promise to myself

that I'm gonna... I'm gonna

make it to the NFL.

He had to take a drug test

or be suspended for

the rest of the season.

He took the test,

and the "Deseret News"

obtained the results,

and they were negative,

so Harvey Langi

was only suspended

for the playoff opener today

with Hunter.

Men:
Whoo hoo!

[Beep]

Vita, voice-over: They...

kicked me out of school,

and I got put on probation.

OK.

[Beeping]

Have you done any?

All right. I've got to get

a drug test from you,

so if you're clean...

OK.

And we can get these hours in,

there's a strong possibility

you could be terminated.

Yes.

But I got to get

those hours from you.

All right.

How's your brother doing?

He's doing good.

He goes back to...

to Judge Behrens

to see when he gets out.

[Whistling]

Vita, voice-over:

I miss him a lot

because I do everything

with my brother.

Wherever I go, he comes with me.

It just throws

everything off for me.

[Cell phone rings]

What up? What are you doing?

Man:
Nothing. I'm just

driving around

the neighborhood

back at my Mom's house.

What are you doing?

Nothing. Come get me.

All right. I'm on my way

over there right now, sir.

All right.

We feeling [Indistinct]?

Oh, you know what it is.

Yeah.

[Music and chatter]

Man:
You're on my

territory, man.

You're on my territory now.

Hey, what's up?

What's up?

Oh, yeah.

Fihi, voice-over: This is kava.

Kava is a root.

Makes you feel good.

It's not... it ain't nothing bad.

It's not drinking beer

or anything.

It just calms you down,

you know?

My hands first got to be clean.

That's a must. Your

hands got to be clean.

Whoo. This kava looks good.

Fihi, voice-over: It's fun

to do it with a lot of boys,

especially when... when they're

jamming on the uke.

Guests:
All I want

in my life

Is you

They make believe

When I'm with you,

I feel much stronger

Every chance, every moment

I have with you

Babe, make believe

When I'm with you

I feel so much stronger

Fihi, voice-over: Kava

is our way of holding on

to our traditions

but at the same time

inviting the new.

In my life is you

I mean, we'll play you

at the position

you want to play.

If you feel like...

I'll play any position

you want me to play, Coach.

I'll just, you know...

Aaron:
That's a...

you know, that's a big thing

for us is, we're trying

to win a football game.

Yup.

Do you guys have scholarships?

Yes.

For athletics?

Yup. What's your

academic interest

in college?

Uh, psychology.

OK.

A lot of the NAIA schools

are gonna be private

institutions,

very educational-based.

We like to think

that NAIA football

is a little bit better

than Division III football,

more similar to

lower-end Division II.

Yeah. OK?

Yeah.

It's good to meet you.

Thank you, Coach.

And, um, I'll be in touch

early next week.

OK. Thanks, Coach.

Fihi, voice-over:

Football is not always gonna

be there for me.

I maybe have a good body...

body type to be, like, you know,

speed and stuff, but that's only

gonna last so long,

and I got to figure out a place

like school and a job to get,

you know, a career, so...

As far as him as a player,

he's... he's awesome.

He is... he's a great athlete.

Plays with a lot of passion.

Uh, he was the heart

and soul of our team.

Fihi, voice-over:

I like smaller schools,

but, um, I'm thinking about

going on my mission, so...

Fihi, voice-over: The Mormon

Church, when you turn 18,

they give you a place

to serve your mission...

two years...

give me time to think

about what I want

and what I'm going

to do, you know?

3. [Whistle blows] Move!

Fihi, voice-over: But right now

I really don't know.

It's gonna be hard to go back

into football after two years.

Kalasiti:
Hi. Whoo!

OK.

I'm gonna do it right.

Kalasita:
BHS...

Bingham High School

at the top of my head.

Harvey:
It's all my bros.

All the injured.

Kalasita:
Make the people

to cheer

and the crowd to make noise!

A good spirit for them

to win the game.

You need to open your mouth
