"[closing narration] When the replacement players for the Washington Sentinels left the stadium that day, there was no ticker tape parade, no endorsement deals for sneakers or soda pop, or breakfast cereal. Just a locker to be cleaned out, and a ride home to catch. But what they didnt know, was that their lives had been changed forever because they had been part of something great. And greatness, no matter how brief, stays with a man. Every athlete dreams of a second chance, these men lived it."

"[giving the replacement players a pregame speech before their first game] Alright, Sentinels, listen up. Welcome to professional football. [the players clap] I know theres a lot people out there whore going to say that your accomplishments today will soon be forgotten; that youre not real players, that this isnt a real team. And I say that is BULLSHIT! Because as of today, youre all professional football players: youre being paid to play. I want you to remember that because those men whose places youve taken forgot that a long time ago."
