How 'bout you, Bates? I don't know. - Don't be scared. - I'm not scared. You're on the team. Yo. I'll play quarterback. You got any experience, Leon? Man, I got so much experience I could give some away and still have more than I could use.

And unless we fill that void with somethin' better, we're gonna lose 'em. According to the teaching staff, the kids here have trouble being punctual, responding to authority, being a member of a team, and accepting criticism. What one activity can improve 'em on all these areas? - You wanna start a football team? - Exactly. Sean, look at them. Our whole system's designed to prevent them from making contact. Our whole system right now is a joke. Malcolm, you're not buying into this, are you? Seventy-five percent of our kids end up back in jail. How much worse could it be? Well, who are they gonna play against? I'll find 'em high school teams to play. Wait a minute, you wanna take 'em out of the camp? You really think you can trust these kids? Not now, no. But if they were a football team... Oh, come on, Sean. It's impossible. Then let's try the impossible, because the possible just ain't workin'. Paul, we've got to give these kids a target and we've gotta fill that void. You played football, didn't you? Defensive end. Second Team All League. All right, we'll give it a try. But your neck is way out on this.

How 'bout you, Owens? You played defensive back, didn't you? For Washington? You wanna check your calendar and get back to me? Or maybe you got another liquor store to rob. Yeah, I'll play. How 'bout you, Evans? I mean, I played Pop Warner when I was younger but that's about it, though. You're on the team. I got experience. I played for, like, three years. - What position'd you play? - Out to the side. Was that out to the side on offense or defense? If the ball's thrown from... Man, I don't know what I'm talkin'. All right, Bug. How 'bout you be water boy? - Cool. - All right. Yo, Mr. Porter. Can I play? You're getting out in a week, Madlock. I wanna stay in. You wanna stay in jail? Yeah, man. South Central in summertime gets hot. Gets crazy. People start shootin' each other and stuff. I'll talk to your case worker. - All right? - All right. New booty? What's your name?
