  • "I don't care if you don't like eachother, but you will respect eachother" Such a simple statement but so deeply profound & wise. If everyone took that lesson to heart we could almost have peace on earth.

  • to the top comments...all teams are different..my team was a mix of italian..hispanic and black kids..few race induced fights now and then ..but alot of fights..we didnt come together until we won the psal champiosnhip ..ill remmeber those dudes forever

  • No matter how many times I watch this scene, I still get chills. One or the best motivational speeches ever

  • This clip deserves better quality

  • dang this takes me back. my friend and i watched this movie everynight for 7 years when we were 10 till our last football game as a senior in high school. dang they were the best years of my life. and we still watch it every thursday and just talk about the good times we had. years go by so so so fast!

  • I get chills everytime I watch this scene

  • Denzel is a hell of an Actor

  • everyone check out "marcellus football" and tell me that A- he didnt get the idea from this movie and B- everyone should not be offended, but inspired.

  • hi

    

  • Great movie 

  • this scene gave me goose bump every freaking time

  • STRONG SIDE!!..... LEFT SIDE!!... STRONG SIDE..... LEFT SIDE

  • second best football movie after rudy

  • @theJRLMchannel  rudy is one of the worst football movies ever

  • @darams100 ur kidding right?

  • @theJRLMchannel no. highly inaccurate movie.

  • have to do make about film techniques about this movie :D and also about this scene.

  • I joined football thinking it would be this loving brotherly bond that overcomes all like this movie. Its not.

  • @kipumbae playing wrong sport...baseball

  • @kipumbae but this is a true storey, so it could have been.

  • @kipumbae thats cuase u prolly didnt start no ofense but people who dont start arent brothers

  • @kipumbae yes it is scumbag

  • @kipumbae yes it is scumbag

  • @kipumbae Maybe not for you but it was for me through college.

  • @kipumbae it can be, with the right team.

  • @kipumbae well then you played for a shitty team (and I'm not talking about the amount of W's you amassed). Every team I have been on (middle, high, and college) have all been a close knit group of brothers who stick up for their comrade to their left and right.

  • @kipumbae probably cause your team sucked

  • @kipumbae This scene and the movie in its entirety was not about football. Its about a football TEAM, that overcame hatred, racism and bigotry in an area known for it at a time of it and went on to be "perfect."

  • @kipumbae Then your not on a real football team.

  • @zomfgpaNic Or, he didnt have a real Coach.

  • @kipumbae Then you must not play on a successful team...

  • @kipumbae yeah nothing like this at all

  • @kipumbae It all depends on the coach.

  • @kipumbae then your not playing right

  • @kipumbae agreeed with zomfg, maybe u just haven't invested yourself enough into it... put everything you got in it, it wont let you down,ever.

  • @kipumbae well this was based in the late 50's early 60's back when they had to over come racism and hatred... but there's nothing like that really anymore not bad enough to make you guys become like family

  • @kipumbae no matter what you think right now, i guarantee that once you stop playing you WILL miss it.

  • @kipumbae There's teams, Luckily I was blessed with a team that is like a real family. But I can guarantee you that Football love and brotherhood is real.

  • @kipumbae hahahahah

  • @kipumbae Should have become a laxer then. Isn't a lax team out there that doesn't understand brothership.

  • @kipumbae I road the bench this year. I got my ass whooped during practice, but guess what? I learned more cause of my team. Sure we weren't the greatest, but we were one heck of a team when it came to having a bond. It's a brotherhood, and if it weren't for my team, I would've been gone on day 1. They helped me through so much, sure we had jokes that got us mad. Football is a family, one that survives losing and one that grows strong from winning.

  • @kipumbae Thats because Denzel Washington is not your coach.

  • i don't care if you don't like each other right now but, you will respect each other

  • 14 people are racist

  • @ipj79 first love the but I do a different cheerleading where we cheer 24/7 and I'm working out nonstop. So let me see u throw a standing full or get hit in the face by a top girls shoe break ur nose and keep going through a routine that will make u out if breath.

  • From 0:44 on... close your eyes and just listen...

  • Great music.

  • 10 people think cheerleadings harder than football

  • Hey petey is Turk from scrubs!!!!! Lmao!

  • Only people matter, nowt else, we are all the same, throo thick and thin, only the soul makes us what we are.

  • My favoritee scene of this moviee

  • this makes me so pumped and brings tear to my eye

  • @CuteJazzlinn LMFAO. The first democracy known to man was in Ancient Greece a few thousand years ago. By the way. Anyone with a semblance of an education could guess the nationality of someone who calls themself UtrechtNL. The clue there is in the NL part.

  • who the fuck dislikes this?

  • @NwoSwat just ya odd fuckwit or 2

  • @SlyKingBanjoBRAH oh i can guess who disliked this some KKK members XD

  • This a Cracking Film. Based on True Events. Whats not to like? If you havnt seen it how can one ridicule it? You dont have to watch it

  • Ironically, Denzel Washington made his break-through in a film about the Civil War.

  • @NamelessMC yupp glory

  • Seriously...you have to have a mental deficiency to dislike this...

  • whats the name of the song in the background at the end?

  • im not that interested in football but this movie captivated me... absolutely amazing

  • Anyone who believes that this movie is strictly about football, didn't really pay attention to the movie. and anyone who believes the Civil War was a simply about state rights also didn't pay attention in history class.

  • Good film, but this is such a typical, american, corny. 'over the top' scene. Would have been better without it.

  • @EnglishMikey and it was actually a " over the top " american moment once in real life ? ur a moron .

  • what a crack of shiet

  • this aint football, its handegg! lol

  • I love the way he says "You listen" - it comes out strongly as "Ulysses" 

  • an epic scene out of an epic movie...

  • ha...dr turkleton

  • First off Denzel is an absolutly brilliant actor second this speech gives me chills from beginning to end and 3rd i could go play a football game right now lol

  • one of the best speeches ever made.

  • pretty sure the war was about secession of the southern states. which was caused by a wealth of reasons. all very complicated.

    @ZacPentecost please come talk to me when u can understand the reasons for the civil war better than a 8 year old.

  • and maybe, idk just maybe will learn to play this game like men

  • civil war wasn't about slavery but this speech is still awesome

  • @Knoxisastudmuffin slavery wasnt the main thing but it definetly was a cause retard

  • @Knoxisastudmuffin

    Civil war came because the South seceded from the U.S. because of slavery.

  • @DCdorian Well partially it was about States' rights. The Southern states believed they had to right to run themselves and the North disagreed. However, as you say the States wanted to run themselves and they were going to use that power for nothing but slavery based ideas.

  • @Knoxisastudmuffin Yes it was. It was because the South liked salves and the North didn't...

  • fuck these 9 racists 

  • Inspirational, when they thought that getting along and football was hard, they aint ever experienced war. You can tell they all took that lesson with them in this movie afterwards though into the next game

  • Great film, and dont ant to knock it, but it was not 50,000 dead there at all, it was about 5,000 with maybe 18,000 wounded or so

  • @chrisM33 I think they meant 50,000 casualties across both sides. Including dead, wounded, lost. But then again this guy is a football coach not a history teacher so I guess it doesn't matter.

  • @DezGSRD You may be right, but he does say 50,000 dead, but hell your right its a sports movie, and he trying to get across the point about them sacrificing there lives for what they believed. Funny enough though, ive heard many people say they believe 50,000 died in that battle on various other places.

  • @chrisM33 -- that wasn't his point. They werent in history class man. It was mean to be inspirational.

  • @roxhard123.... couldn't have said it better brother.....

  • my boy aint playin for some, coach coone!!

  • my boy aint playin for some, coach coon!!

  • I love this part of the movie! i shed a tear each time i watch it

  • @LiamLoveTaylor left side!!!

  • @eliasyoocoolman STRONG SIDE

  • @OMFGiTzByAhH let me tell you something what kinda power do you got?

  • @eliasyoocoolman i got souuuuuulll power

  • whats the song at 1:12??

  • coach coon

  • @CuteJazzlinn USA are the first countr.y who used democracy? I think you need to learn a bit of history boy...

  • @MrTwixiz The USA was NOT the first country to use democracy. Britains been using it long before...as was Germany and Italy. never forget that the USA is a very very young country and is already in the twilight and fading years of its global supremacy...one superpower gives way to another. China are next. Though, im not too sure if im comfortable with that thought

  • @LCStreetPhotographer That was exactly my point, dont you see my question mark? ;)

  • @MrTwixiz I sure did see the question mark ;).

  • "Listen to their souls... I killed my brother with malice in my heart, Hatred destroyed my family".

  • Comment removed

  • Haha, you wish it was true, Ancient greece were the first one, so IN YOUR FACE bummer

  • @83UtrechtNL- Just a bit of clarification. The Battle of Gettysburg is not an American Revolutionary War battle as you indicate. It was of course a battle in the American Civil War. Denzel's speech is referring to slavery of that time, and the struggle in our nation over racial acceptance and equality.

  • "I killed my brother with malice in my heart"

  • I go to THE T.C. Williams High School in Alexandria Virginia... we have a denzel washington cardboard cutout next to our gym. Its awesome.

  • 8 people never gonna be a titan!!!!!!

  • this is when football...was football.

  • @roxhard123 and they played it like men

  • @roxhard123 OMG.... This is not near what you call "football" Dont you hear the word FOOT? sooo stupid you americans. you took the word "football" just bcs your version of it misses a name. thats a shame!

  • @affeliba1 No.. this is not near what YOU call football.. this is exactly what we call football.

  • @affeliba1 Shut up you ignorant twat. Im not American,but I know its Football. American Football. Dont be so ignorant labelling people as "soo stupid you Americans" Fucks Sake get a life

  • @roxhard123 Nah. Football has always been the game played with the, I dunno, ball? Your football is a lot different from the rest of the world. I'd call your ball a 'rugby ball'. Football is played with a different type of ball. Soccer is your word to differentiate

  • @fireprism2 our ball is smaller than a rugby ball with points on the ends, ovoid balls are still balls. football is played with footballs, theres like 5 football games, there is no one football

  • @roxhard123 this is when football was highschool most popular sport afterrrr wrestling, oh wait thats still true

  • @roxhard123 and what is football to you now?

  • @TheCdubski1 commercials and advertisements, promotions and money :)

  • @roxhard123 what do u mean was it is is football

  • @mrmarcusshelton94 mostly i mean the amount of passion that was evolved, a different kind really. and the way it made people feel...

  • this is my favorite movie of all time, hands down

  • I have to admit Americans have a talent for these kind of hero speeches

  • @83UtrechtNL

    We're a young country. Our revolution is still freshly printed in our history books and the boot print of a tyrant is still faintly visible upon the ground. The great men who fought for this land were from a time not so long ago when measured against the timeless ages of man. They stood for principles and ideas that every human being cherishes to the core: the right to live freely and happily and to make a place in this world worth fighting to the death to defend...

  • @LibertyAtYourService The fact that you see your countries part in history as small, speaks highly of you, because most Americans think they like invented the world or something.

    I agree with you on the human level regarding soldiers who fell for their country, though i strongly doubt if the government who sends them has the same noble interests.

    I also doubt if everyone cherishes your principals.

  • @83UtrechtNL Your an idiot. Completely. I dont even know what the hell you were talkin about. Do you even know about our revolution? The people who fought in our revolution were farmers and peasants who were fed up with being mistreated by the stupid ass Brits. There was nothing not noble about what they were fighting for. And... invented the world? what the hell? and show me someone who would not cherish their right to live freely. Its a basic human longing to be able to live for yourself.

  • @Jaytee1227 pppfffffft ye right....brits are propa smart

  • @arenbesim10 which is why they can spell better than you

  • @Pliped you havent got the joke at all!

  • with denzel washington u dont need co actors not even a background nothing

    denzels face expression can tell a 4 hour story all alone !!!!

    and chuck norris is a fucking son of a bitch

  • haha this guys coming to our school tomorrow for a speech

  • @TheFalloutMasta Denzel whyy would u be saying haha i would be honoredd

  • @michael67898 when i said this guy i ment the real coach boone that this movie was inspired by the reason i went haha is because this vid happened to be in my recommended videos box so what are the odds? its like their watching me

  • @TheFalloutMasta lucky!

  • I killed my brother with malice in my heart......

  • Great movie

  • RESPECT!

  • "Listen, and take a lesson from the dead" goose bumps

  • where's the line where coach boone says "you think you doing something by patrionizing these boys, you crippling 'em coach, your crippling them for life", thats some deep words there, if anyone knows or can find it let me know

  • 7 people prefer Scary Movie

  • 7 ppl Cant play the game like men

  • Y was Coach Boone is such better shape than these young men. Quit panting! lol

  • baseball is definetly a pussy sport. shut the fuck up kr1chfact0rx

  • wts the song cold???

  • this movie means a lot to me because my baseball team in high school was all diversity and there were guys who didnt even speak english. but we came together for the love of the same game... the passion for the game we played was all the language we needed to become not only a team, but also brothers.

  • @Kr1chfact0rX baseball is for pussys tho..

  • @CavsShea69 a true athlete doesn't put down other sports. just because a sport isn't full contact doesn't make it a sport for pussies. baseball is mental with not a vigorous amount of physicality, but enough to tire a player out.

    have you ever tried catching 9 innings while keeping track of what hitters have done what in previous at bats without a lineup card on your wrist? knowing what pitches to call with certain batters?

    its all mental until that pitcher starts his motion.

  • Right on bringitbackoldscoo1. Too often football is used as a vehicle for popularity instead of a rite of passage into being a man. If you give your teammates all you got they'll give it back tenfold... and then... you'll win together.

  • One of denzels best movies great story and great speech

  • Good Film , LOVE IT.

  • lost champiosnship last year and it still hurts today

  • i play football right now im not that great but i havent missed a day of practice i love football i wont quit on it i dnt care how many times i screw up i try my hardest every damn day and i knw 1 day that will be a good thing

  • my football team has it 100th year aniversary and its crazy how much heart and drive our team has this year

  • If my school had coach boone as a football coach, we would be winning state championships non stop

  • i wish our team has as much heart as this team. we have all the talent in the world. but we dont have enough drive. we all want it but we dont want to pay the price to get to the top.

  • bringingbackoldaschool ill fuckin kill u...u probably hate football cuz ur a little bitch with no friends and wish u could be aprt of an ass kicking team

  • Watch My Video Of Will Smith & Mayweather for Motivation , these two men aquire the fundamentals which most people dont have is to never give up . 1 Being in the Sport Industry Goin 41 Fights 41 Wins Giving People Motivation & The Other Giving Inspiartion too thousands with his extraordinary acting skills. Thanks Please Watch Give Me Your Opinion .

  • This movie was very inspirational such as Malcolm X played by dis actor. Such as Coach Carter.

  • "And maybe, I don't know maybe we'll learn to play this game like men."

  • That speech made me cry O_O

  • Wutz the name of this song?

  • name of the song?

  • @danieleliasson19 a hard rains a gonna fall - leon russel

  • LOVE this movie! one of my favorites of all time!

  • OK speech, but not the best part of an excellent movie. I always thought it was a little overdone, a little too clearly worthy, earnest and, yes, preachy. It's obvious he's not speaking to a group of high school kids but to all of us; the inference is somewhat insulting. Such lack of sublety perhaps shows why it wasn't as big a hit as the rest of the movie deserved.

  • I go to TC, our athletics are generally consistent but our academics are terrible. one of the Persistently Lowest Achieving (PLA) schools in the country.

  • @titansoccaplaya9 come to mcroberts in richmond BC canada, we have a strong athletics and education. Our rugby team was so good they toured Europe to play, our Ultimate team came 2nd in the province, our senior soccer team can 3rd in the country, our table tennis team came 2nd in the province and was off by a point and our Reach for the Top Team(Trvia Team) got 2nd in the country

  • I wish nowadays football players (mostly high school players) play the game for the glory of the game, not to see who gets laid.. and how many times you get laid just for being a football player.. Look at movies like this (based on true stories). they all play for the love and glory of the game.. I did

  • @trojans7 nothing wrong with playing for love of the game and getting laid after... i did

  • cant all sport teams be like this and not fool around....

  • This movie keeps getting better with time, truly inspirational due to the entire cast and the great acting of the lead actor Denzel Washington.

  • this speek cam realte to everyone as well if only people droped there fists and learned to join togethor as one. the blacks white mexicans asians etc.

  • the speech at halftime on the last football game in friday night lights is better..way better
