...is that no matter how hard I try,
I'II never get above the prep team.

1:22:04

I've accepted that God made some
peopIe footbaII pIayers, but not me.

1:22:09

I wish God wouId put your heart
in some of my pIayers' bodies.

1:22:17

My father Ioves Notre Dame footbaII
more than anything eIse in the worId.

1:22:21

He doesn't beIieve I'm on the team...

1:22:24

...because he can't see me
during the games.

1:22:27

Next year, my senior year, I'd Iove
to be abIe to give him this gift:

1:22:32

I'd reaIIy appreciate it if you'd
Iet me dress one game next season.

1:22:38

Look, Rudy...

1:22:39

...the NCAA reaIIy hamstrings us
with this 60 ruIe.

1:22:43

In some positions
we onIy have one backup.

1:22:46

You know every year we're competing
for the nationaI championship.

1:22:53

Is this just for your father?

1:22:57

No, it's for everybody who toId me
that it wouId be impossibIe.

1:23:02

It's for my brothers...

1:23:04

...the kids in my high schooI,
the guys I work with at the miII.

1:23:08

They can't come to practice
and see that I am part of the team.

1:23:17

Okay.

1:23:21

You deserve it. You'II dress
for one game next season.

1:23:27

Thank you, coach.

1:23:32

Yes!

1:23:34

I don't know which game yet,
but it'II definiteIy be next season.

1:23:39

I'm sure.

1:23:42

I guess they'II teII me
a few days before the game.

1:23:45

Look, just be ready, okay?

1:23:51

Thanks, Dad.

1:23:53

AII right, bye.
