INCHES
I don't know what to say really.
Three minutes to the biggest battle of our professional lives all comes down to today.
Three minutes to the biggest battle of our professional lives all comes down to today.
Either we heal as a team or we are going to crumble.
Inch by inch play by play till we're finished.
We are in hell right now, gentlemen believe me
and we can stay here and get the shit kicked out of us
or
we can fight our way back into the light.
We can climb out of hell. One inch, at a time
Now I can't do it for you. I'm too old.
I look around and I see these young faces and I think
I mean I made every wrong choice a middle age man could make.
I uh.... I pissed away all my money
believe it or not.
I chased off anyone who has ever loved me.
And lately, I can't even stand the face I see in the mirror.
You know when you get old in life things get taken from you.
That's, that's part of life. But,
you only learn that when you start losing stuff.
You find out that life is just a game of inches.
So is football. Because in either game life or football the margin for error is so small.
I mean one half a step too late or to early you don't quite make it.
One half second too slow or too fast and you don't quite catch it.
The inches we need are everywhere around us
They are in ever break of the game every minute, every second.
On this team, we fight for that inch
On this team, we tear ourselves, and everyone around us to pieces for that inch
We CLAW with our finger nails for that inch Cause we know
when we add up all those inches that's going to make the fucking difference
between WINNING and LOSING
between LIVING and DYING
I'll tell you this in any fight
it is the guy who is willing to die who is going to win that inch
And I know if I am going to have any life anymore
it is because, I am still willing to fight, and die for that inch
because that’s what LIVING is
The six inches in front of your face
Now I can't make you do it.
You gotta look at the guy next to you Look into his eyes
Now I think you are going to see a guy who will go that inch with you
You are going to see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team
because he knows when it comes down to it you are gonna do the same thing for him.
That's a team, gentlemen
and either we heal now, as a team, or we will die as individuals
That's football guys.
That's all it is. Now, whattaya gonna do?
