1
00:00:09,043 --> 00:00:11,343
My name is
Joey Bird.
2
00:00:11,345 --> 00:00:12,444
I was born
and raised
3
00:00:12,446 --> 00:00:14,146
in Brighton,
Ontario, Canada.
4
00:00:14,148 --> 00:00:16,281
I had a great
childhood.
5
00:00:16,283 --> 00:00:19,051
The beach is
beautiful there.
6
00:00:19,053 --> 00:00:21,286
Its people are all
friendly and all we did
7
00:00:21,288 --> 00:00:23,655
from the moment I could
walk is play hockey.
8
00:00:23,657 --> 00:00:26,325
On the streets, on the
pond, in the back yard..
9
00:00:26,327 --> 00:00:28,327
I loved it.
10
00:00:28,329 --> 00:00:32,464
Then everything came to
a halt when my mom died.
11
00:00:32,466 --> 00:00:36,402
It seemed like my
dad kind of blamed me.
12
00:00:36,404 --> 00:00:41,173
So all we had between
the two of us was hockey.
13
00:00:41,175 --> 00:00:43,375
Didn't talk much.
14
00:00:43,377 --> 00:00:47,446
He started drowning
himself in self-pity
15
00:00:47,448 --> 00:00:50,449
by drinking and
just being a nasty,
16
00:00:50,451 --> 00:00:54,553
sarcastic
individual.
17
00:00:54,555 --> 00:00:58,457
But all we had
was ourselves.
18
00:00:58,459 --> 00:01:02,661
I kept playing hockey
and I got drafted at 18
19
00:01:02,663 --> 00:01:07,099
by the Cincinnati
Cheetahs in the States.
20
00:01:07,101 --> 00:01:10,636
Sometimes you get lucky
and people embrace it.
21
00:01:10,638 --> 00:01:12,671
And sometimes
you get lucky
22
00:01:12,673 --> 00:01:15,207
and people
disgrace it.
23
00:01:15,209 --> 00:01:17,543
I disgraced it.
24
00:01:17,545 --> 00:01:21,146
I started drinking
and doing drugs
25
00:01:21,148 --> 00:01:24,583
and basically
fucked my career up.
26
00:01:24,585 --> 00:01:29,354
But Mr. Brown, the
owner of the team,
27
00:01:29,356 --> 00:01:34,093
for whatever reason
just tried to help me.
28
00:01:34,095 --> 00:01:37,129
But my dad
washed his hands
29
00:01:37,131 --> 00:01:40,365
and basically
turned his back.
30
00:01:40,367 --> 00:01:44,837
This is my story about
the game that I love..
31
00:01:44,839 --> 00:01:46,572
Hockey.
32
00:01:46,574 --> 00:01:50,542
¶ I wonder why
sometimes I cry ¶
33
00:01:50,544 --> 00:01:54,847
¶ I wonder why
some day I'll die ¶
34
00:01:54,849 --> 00:02:00,385
¶ I wonder why I
just can't fly ¶
35
00:02:00,387 --> 00:02:03,722
¶ I wonder
all the time ¶
36
00:02:03,724 --> 00:02:08,127
¶ I wonder why I
just can't see ¶
37
00:02:08,129 --> 00:02:12,397
¶ I wonder why
you just left me ¶
38
00:02:12,399 --> 00:02:17,669
¶ Am I the one
that only sees ¶
39
00:02:17,671 --> 00:02:21,807
¶ I wonder ¶
40
00:02:21,809 --> 00:02:26,211
¶ Some day I'll be
a better person ¶
41
00:02:26,213 --> 00:02:30,782
¶ I know that
I can be ¶
42
00:02:30,784 --> 00:02:35,387
¶ Just give me a
chance to find me ¶
43
00:02:35,389 --> 00:02:38,423
¶ I wonder ¶
44
00:02:38,425 --> 00:02:42,594
¶ Sometimes I wonder
what it could be ¶
45
00:02:42,596 --> 00:02:47,166
¶ Sometimes I wonder if
I was better than me ¶
46
00:02:47,168 --> 00:02:51,303
¶ Sometimes I wonder if
I was someone else ¶
47
00:02:51,305 --> 00:02:55,240
Lou, I understand you
believe in this kid.
48
00:02:55,242 --> 00:02:56,775
But you gotta
trust me...
49
00:02:56,777 --> 00:02:59,912
a snake may shed its
skin but not its habits.
50
00:02:59,914 --> 00:03:02,481
- Jesus Christ.
Come on, Derek.
51
00:03:02,483 --> 00:03:05,517
I had to do something
and this is what I did.
52
00:03:05,519 --> 00:03:07,819
It was my choice
to do it, I did it.
53
00:03:07,821 --> 00:03:10,689
And it's your choice to
make, I understand, Lou.
54
00:03:10,691 --> 00:03:12,491
But you brought
me on this team
55
00:03:12,493 --> 00:03:14,960
to make a winning
team out of it.
56
00:03:14,962 --> 00:03:18,564
For 38 years
we've had a dry run.
57
00:03:18,566 --> 00:03:20,499
Look, I brought you on
this team because I knew
58
00:03:20,501 --> 00:03:22,267
you could do the job
and you've done it.
59
00:03:22,269 --> 00:03:23,535
You've brought
me to the point
60
00:03:23,537 --> 00:03:24,970
where I want
to be with it.
61
00:03:24,972 --> 00:03:27,306
But I own this
fucking team!
62
00:03:27,308 --> 00:03:30,809
And I want to
get him here!
63
00:03:30,811 --> 00:03:32,611
How I get him,
I don't know.
64
00:03:32,613 --> 00:03:34,980
I've been looking all
over for the fucking guy.
65
00:03:34,982 --> 00:03:37,516
But I do believe in
him, alright, Derek?
66
00:03:37,518 --> 00:03:38,617
I do believe-
67
00:03:38,619 --> 00:03:40,652
It's the
seventh game!
68
00:03:40,654 --> 00:03:43,255
We could take the
championship and you're
69
00:03:43,257 --> 00:03:45,257
gambling everybody's
hopes and dreams
70
00:03:45,259 --> 00:03:46,692
on this wild kid!
71
00:03:46,694 --> 00:03:48,527
Derek, I signed this
guy to 20 years
72
00:03:48,529 --> 00:03:49,895
of his
contract, alright?
73
00:03:49,897 --> 00:03:51,597
He worked for me
for ten years.
74
00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:53,465
I continued to pay
his salary because
75
00:03:53,467 --> 00:03:54,866
I believed
in this kid.
76
00:03:54,868 --> 00:03:58,437
This kid earned a second
chance with me because
77
00:03:58,439 --> 00:04:00,806
we might not have
won a championship
78
00:04:00,808 --> 00:04:03,408
but he brought us to
the fucking playoffs
79
00:04:03,410 --> 00:04:06,445
ten fucking
years in a row!
80
00:04:06,447 --> 00:04:09,481
It's my fucking fault
we didn't win, okay?
81
00:04:09,483 --> 00:04:11,683
Maybe I did something
wrong, but not him.
82
00:04:11,685 --> 00:04:14,453
I fucking
believe in him.
83
00:04:14,455 --> 00:04:16,722
I believe in him!
84
00:04:16,724 --> 00:04:18,457
I believe he's
gonna do it
85
00:04:18,459 --> 00:04:20,659
and I'll die
thinking that.
86
00:04:20,661 --> 00:04:22,394
Lou, it's
your team.
87
00:04:22,396 --> 00:04:24,363
It's your money,
you own it.
88
00:04:24,365 --> 00:04:26,765
But every player
on this team..
89
00:04:26,767 --> 00:04:29,468
Their hearts,
their dreams
90
00:04:29,470 --> 00:04:31,536
are gambling on
your choice-
91
00:04:31,538 --> 00:04:36,842
I believe that Joey Bird
will fly high again!
92
00:04:36,844 --> 00:04:37,976
Period!
93
00:04:37,978 --> 00:04:40,312
End of story,
I'm outta here.

¶
100
00:05:37,671 --> 00:05:39,604
Big sports news
out of Cincinnati.
101
00:05:39,606 --> 00:05:42,074
Cheetahs owner Louis
Brown has lost his mind
102
00:05:42,076 --> 00:05:44,043
over Joey Bird.
103
00:05:44,044 --> 00:05:46,011
Bird, you may recall,
the disgraced goalie from
104
00:05:46,013 --> 00:05:49,815
nearly two decades ago
is now in for game seven.
105
00:05:49,817 --> 00:05:51,750
Brown should have
never signed this guy
106
00:05:51,752 --> 00:05:54,052
to a contract for 20
years in the first place.
107
00:05:54,054 --> 00:05:55,587
It's a disgrace.
108
00:05:55,589 --> 00:05:57,589
When you run a
sports franchise,
109
00:05:57,591 --> 00:05:59,591
you can't think
with your heart.
110
00:05:59,593 --> 00:06:00,959
You have to think
with your brain
111
00:06:00,961 --> 00:06:02,661
and your
pocketbook.
112
00:06:02,663 --> 00:06:04,763
I think this goes back
to his personal life.
113
00:06:04,765 --> 00:06:07,532
Brown lost his son
to heroin and suicide
114
00:06:07,534 --> 00:06:09,568
years ago, and I
think he was trying to
115
00:06:09,570 --> 00:06:11,970
mentor the kid
because of that sad
116
00:06:11,972 --> 00:06:14,005
and dark experience
with his son.
117
00:06:14,007 --> 00:06:15,640
And what does
he get for it?
118
00:06:15,642 --> 00:06:18,043
This sad and
dark experience.
119
00:06:18,045 --> 00:06:20,746
Joe, I'm sorry. I'm
disappointed in you.
120
00:06:20,748 --> 00:06:22,681
Are you
running for mayor?
121
00:06:22,683 --> 00:06:25,150
Mr. Brown has done
his best to bring a
122
00:06:25,152 --> 00:06:28,487
championship team and for
you to refer to his son..
123
00:06:28,489 --> 00:06:30,455
That's grossly
unfair.
124
00:06:37,398 --> 00:06:39,398
Joey!
125
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,633
There's
someone at the door!
126
00:06:44,405 --> 00:06:47,906
Joey!

128
00:06:56,550 --> 00:07:01,820
Lou! Hi!
Come on in.
129
00:07:01,822 --> 00:07:03,956
Joanne..
130
00:07:03,957 --> 00:07:06,091
You're the last person
I expected to be here.
131
00:07:06,093 --> 00:07:07,592
- Yeah, me too.
132
00:07:07,594 --> 00:07:08,960
Is Joey here?
133
00:07:08,962 --> 00:07:10,762
- Yeah. Joey!
134
00:07:13,100 --> 00:07:15,017
Joey!
135
00:07:15,018 --> 00:07:16,935
- Didn't I tell you not to
open that fucking door?
136
00:07:16,937 --> 00:07:19,037
But it's
Lou Brown!
137
00:07:19,039 --> 00:07:21,907
He's the same guy,
eh? Never changes.
138
00:07:21,909 --> 00:07:23,508
- No, consistent.
139
00:07:23,510 --> 00:07:24,943
How are you
feeling? Good?
140
00:07:24,945 --> 00:07:26,611
I am, yeah.
I'm good.
141
00:07:26,613 --> 00:07:27,813
- You look great.
142
00:07:27,815 --> 00:07:29,214
Mr. Brown...
143
00:07:29,216 --> 00:07:31,516
You didn't forget
me then, huh?
144
00:07:34,555 --> 00:07:35,854
Good seeing
you, kid.
145
00:07:35,856 --> 00:07:37,989
Look, uh.. Excuse
me, Joanne,
146
00:07:37,991 --> 00:07:39,891
but could you see me
over at the restaurant
147
00:07:39,893 --> 00:07:42,093
in 30 minutes? I'd
like to talk to you.
148
00:07:42,095 --> 00:07:43,462
- Across the street?
149
00:07:43,464 --> 00:07:44,863
Yeah, across the
street. Okay?
150
00:07:44,865 --> 00:07:46,498
- Absolutely.
151
00:07:51,138 --> 00:08:00,812
¶
152
00:08:02,950 --> 00:08:05,050
Hi Joey, you
want anything?
153
00:08:05,052 --> 00:08:06,718
- I'm good.
154
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:11,022
Uh, look. I do lots
of favors for people
155
00:08:11,024 --> 00:08:13,959
and I'm not accustomed
to asking favors,
156
00:08:13,961 --> 00:08:17,195
but I'm gonna ask
you for a favor.
157
00:08:17,197 --> 00:08:18,763
- Anything.
158
00:08:18,765 --> 00:08:20,966
I want you
to play.
159
00:08:20,968 --> 00:08:23,001
- Play what?
160
00:08:24,638 --> 00:08:28,106
Uh.. "Play what?"
161
00:08:28,108 --> 00:08:32,878
We're in the seventh game
of the championships,
162
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,179
you know that.
163
00:08:34,181 --> 00:08:35,981
- Yes.
164
00:08:35,982 --> 00:08:37,782
I want you to
play in that game.
165
00:08:37,784 --> 00:08:40,919
- Ask me anything
but that.
166
00:08:40,921 --> 00:08:43,722
Mr. Brown, I haven't
played pro hockey
167
00:08:43,724 --> 00:08:45,757
in about 15 years.
168
00:08:45,759 --> 00:08:47,959
I'm gonna
embarrass you
169
00:08:47,961 --> 00:08:49,728
and I'm gonna
embarrass myself.
170
00:08:49,730 --> 00:08:51,696
Everybody's
gonna hate my guts.
171
00:08:51,698 --> 00:08:53,832
Joey, you're
on my payroll.
172
00:08:53,834 --> 00:08:55,667
- Yes, and I
appreciate it.
173
00:08:55,669 --> 00:08:58,537
And I'm asking
you as a favor
174
00:08:58,539 --> 00:09:01,006
to play in
that game.
175
00:09:01,008 --> 00:09:02,641
I need it.
176
00:09:06,813 --> 00:09:10,015
Can you give
me a chance to
177
00:09:10,017 --> 00:09:12,250
think about it
today, please?
178
00:09:12,252 --> 00:09:16,922
We signed a 20-year
contract, you and I.
179
00:09:16,924 --> 00:09:19,257
And I kept paying. I
kept paying because
180
00:09:19,259 --> 00:09:21,259
nobody else
would hire you.
181
00:09:21,261 --> 00:09:22,827
But I did.
182
00:09:22,829 --> 00:09:24,896
I'm asking you
for a favor.
183
00:09:24,898 --> 00:09:26,765
You've got to commit
to me right now
184
00:09:26,767 --> 00:09:29,568
that you will
do the game.
185
00:09:29,570 --> 00:09:30,835
I need you.
186
00:09:33,707 --> 00:09:36,207
- I'll do
the game.
187
00:09:36,209 --> 00:09:38,343
You're gonna
do it?
188
00:09:38,345 --> 00:09:39,978
- Yes.
189
00:09:39,980 --> 00:09:41,646
I have your word?
190
00:09:41,648 --> 00:09:44,149
- You have
my word.
191
00:09:44,151 --> 00:09:46,251
That's why I
love you, kid.
192
00:09:46,253 --> 00:09:49,788
I'd like you to go
over to the rink
193
00:09:49,790 --> 00:09:52,591
8:00 a.m. tomorrow.
194
00:09:52,593 --> 00:09:57,028
I want him to look
you over and then
195
00:09:57,030 --> 00:10:00,198
let me know what it's
gonna cost me for the
196
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,034
additional insurance to
put you back on the ice.
197
00:10:03,036 --> 00:10:05,003
I have to do that,
you know that.
198
00:10:05,005 --> 00:10:06,738
I'm a
businessman.
199
00:10:06,740 --> 00:10:08,640
Get some rest.
200
00:10:08,642 --> 00:10:10,108
You're sure you
don't want something?
201
00:10:10,110 --> 00:10:11,810
- Thanks, Mr. Brown.
202
00:10:11,812 --> 00:10:14,179
Okay. Joey?
203
00:10:14,181 --> 00:10:17,215
Get some rest,
you look tired.
204
00:10:17,217 --> 00:10:18,850
See you later.
205
00:10:18,852 --> 00:10:19,951
- Okay.
206
00:10:22,623 --> 00:10:24,723
Listen, he's hated.
Fans hate this guy.
207
00:10:24,725 --> 00:10:26,358
He hates his
own guts.
208
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,827
He's the poster
boy for a loser.
209
00:10:28,829 --> 00:10:30,195
I'll tell
you what.
210
00:10:30,197 --> 00:10:32,864
If this guy can
do anything right,
211
00:10:32,866 --> 00:10:34,032
it's beyond me.
212
00:10:34,034 --> 00:10:36,968
How is this guy
gonna get in that net
213
00:10:36,970 --> 00:10:38,803
- against the
New York 21s,
214
00:10:38,805 --> 00:10:42,073
one of the best teams
ever put on the ice
215
00:10:42,075 --> 00:10:45,010
- in the championship
game and stop the puck?
216
00:10:45,012 --> 00:10:46,978
I say no.
217
00:10:46,980 --> 00:10:49,147
I have a feeling, Joe,
that they won't hate him
218
00:10:49,149 --> 00:10:50,382
after the game.
219
00:10:50,384 --> 00:10:52,984
This guy has put his
reputation on the line
220
00:10:52,986 --> 00:10:55,387
and he's got a young
guy that can play goal.
221
00:10:55,389 --> 00:10:57,956
We'll see what
happens come game time.
222
00:10:57,958 --> 00:11:00,191
¶
223
00:11:00,193 --> 00:11:08,199
¶ I just gotta wonder
why you put me under ¶
224
00:11:08,201 --> 00:11:09,934
Hey, Joe.
225
00:11:09,936 --> 00:11:12,404
- What?
226
00:11:12,406 --> 00:11:14,039
You see it?
227
00:11:21,948 --> 00:11:24,382
Wow!
228
00:11:24,384 --> 00:11:26,418
- Alright!
229
00:11:26,420 --> 00:11:28,720
Ho ho ho!
230
00:11:28,722 --> 00:11:30,155
Tough.
231
00:11:39,433 --> 00:11:40,799
Whoa!
232
00:11:40,801 --> 00:11:42,267
Dammit.
233
00:11:42,269 --> 00:11:43,968
- A fucking
gutter ball.
234
00:11:43,970 --> 00:11:45,470
- Whoa, I can't
stay up.
235
00:11:45,472 --> 00:11:57,115
¶
236
00:11:57,117 --> 00:11:59,918
Hi! So what
did he say?
237
00:12:01,388 --> 00:12:03,421
I think
he's crazy.
238
00:12:03,423 --> 00:12:11,296
He, uh.. Wants
me to play..
239
00:12:11,298 --> 00:12:14,132
- Play what?
240
00:12:14,134 --> 00:12:16,267
..Wants me to play
in game seven
241
00:12:16,269 --> 00:12:19,404
of the
championship.
242
00:12:19,406 --> 00:12:24,309
- Well, what are
you gonna do?
243
00:12:24,311 --> 00:12:26,377
I don't know.
244
00:12:26,379 --> 00:12:28,446
And I don't know
how to say no.
245
00:12:28,448 --> 00:12:30,849
He's been
really good to me.
246
00:12:30,851 --> 00:12:32,884
- Where are
you going?
247
00:12:32,886 --> 00:12:37,155
Um.. I'm gonna
go see my dad.
248
00:12:37,157 --> 00:12:40,925
Why? Your dad is
the Dr. Kevorkian
249
00:12:40,927 --> 00:12:43,027
of motivational
speakers.
250
00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:49,033
Why do you still
smoke? Really?
251
00:12:51,471 --> 00:12:53,772
Thank you
for noticing.
252
00:13:05,385 --> 00:13:07,118
Well, I
covered both sides.
253
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:08,853
- Got left
and right.
254
00:13:08,855 --> 00:13:11,189
Let's see
a double.
255
00:13:11,191 --> 00:13:12,924
Let's see you
double up.
256
00:13:12,926 --> 00:13:14,893
- I can't do any
worse than that.
257
00:13:14,895 --> 00:13:16,327
Come on.
258
00:13:26,106 --> 00:13:27,472
Ho ho ho!
259
00:13:27,474 --> 00:13:29,107
- You've got
it going!
260
00:13:31,344 --> 00:13:33,545
You've got a perfect
game going, man.

One pin!
One dime!

00:14:16,623 --> 00:14:18,556
You got one.
269
00:14:30,203 --> 00:14:31,236
That's better.
270
00:14:31,238 --> 00:14:32,370
- Hook!
271
00:14:33,607 --> 00:14:35,073
That's better.
272
00:14:35,976 --> 00:14:37,308
Better.
273
00:14:37,310 --> 00:14:40,378
- Pretty shitty.
274
00:14:40,380 --> 00:14:43,648
Alright, you're
going for a turkey.
275
00:14:43,650 --> 00:14:45,950
- I know, I
know, I know.
276
00:14:49,923 --> 00:14:51,089
- You got it..

00:14:51,091 --> 00:14:52,257
Oh!
278
00:14:52,259 --> 00:14:54,092
Son of a bitch!
279
00:14:54,094 --> 00:14:56,060
The worst kind
of split.

Joey's here.
286

Hey, hey! Kid!
287
00:15:52,652 --> 00:15:54,519
You in
trouble again?
288
00:15:54,521 --> 00:16:00,258
- No, no. Um..
289
00:16:00,260 --> 00:16:02,327
Came to ask
your advice.
290
00:16:02,329 --> 00:16:04,095
- What advice?
291
00:16:04,097 --> 00:16:09,167
Lou Brown, the owner of
the Cincinnati Cheetahs,
292
00:16:09,169 --> 00:16:14,372
uh.. Came to see me
and asked me to play.
293
00:16:14,374 --> 00:16:16,474
- Play what?
294
00:16:16,476 --> 00:16:19,277
Game seven
this Sunday.
295
00:16:23,383 --> 00:16:25,616
- Don't play.
296
00:16:25,618 --> 00:16:29,020
You know why?
297
00:16:29,022 --> 00:16:31,122
'Cause you're
a loser.
298
00:16:33,193 --> 00:16:37,261
I'm a loser. Your
uncle's a loser.
299
00:16:37,263 --> 00:16:39,731
Your grandfather
was a loser.
300
00:16:39,733 --> 00:16:43,401
The only difference
between you and us
301
00:16:43,403 --> 00:16:47,505
is you get paid
to be a loser.
302
00:16:47,507 --> 00:16:50,375
Thanks dad.
303
00:16:50,377 --> 00:16:54,779
Hey, don't listen to
that nasty old dog.
304
00:16:54,781 --> 00:16:58,683
He buried his bone a
hundred years ago and
305
00:16:58,685 --> 00:17:01,452
he can't remember
where the fuck it is.
306
00:17:01,454 --> 00:17:03,154
You go play
the game.
307
00:17:03,156 --> 00:17:05,390
You're a winner.
308
00:17:05,392 --> 00:17:06,491
- Thanks.
309
00:17:19,272 --> 00:17:24,442
Joey! I've been
trying to call you.
310
00:17:24,444 --> 00:17:25,743
- Why?
311
00:17:25,745 --> 00:17:27,578
Why didn't you
pick up your phone?
312
00:17:27,580 --> 00:17:30,114
- Why should I
pick up my phone?
313
00:17:30,116 --> 00:17:32,116
I was worried.
314
00:17:32,118 --> 00:17:35,053
- About me?
315
00:17:35,055 --> 00:17:38,189
Yeah.
316
00:17:38,191 --> 00:17:40,091
- That's new.
317
00:17:40,093 --> 00:17:43,261
Anyways.. Let's
get out of here.
318
00:17:43,263 --> 00:17:44,762
I always worry
about you.
319
00:17:44,764 --> 00:17:46,564
What did he
say to you?
320
00:17:49,269 --> 00:17:51,135
- Does it matter?
321
00:17:51,137 --> 00:17:52,270
Yes, it does.
322
00:17:52,272 --> 00:17:54,405
What did he
say to you?
323
00:17:54,407 --> 00:17:55,706
- Let's go.
324
00:17:55,708 --> 00:17:57,141
Okay, just
wait here.
325
00:17:57,143 --> 00:17:58,276
- Don't.
326
00:17:58,278 --> 00:17:59,610
Just wait here.
327
00:17:59,612 --> 00:18:01,479
We're going
home together.
328
00:18:01,481 --> 00:18:03,448
What did you
say to him?
329
00:18:03,450 --> 00:18:05,283
- The truth.
330
00:18:05,285 --> 00:18:08,186
You don't know
anything about the truth.
331
00:18:08,188 --> 00:18:10,388
- What, did I
hurt his feelings?
332
00:18:10,390 --> 00:18:12,356
What is he,
a pussy?
333
00:18:12,358 --> 00:18:16,260
No. My husband's
no pussy.
334
00:18:16,262 --> 00:18:19,130
But I'll tell
you one thing.
335
00:18:19,132 --> 00:18:20,731
You're a cunt.
336
00:18:23,369 --> 00:18:26,471
Come on.
Let's go.
337
00:18:26,473 --> 00:18:29,574
Can't you take
a day off?
338
00:18:29,576 --> 00:18:31,576
- What? I'm retired.
339
00:18:31,578 --> 00:18:34,345
From being
an asshole.
340
00:18:34,347 --> 00:18:36,781
- What is it with
everybody today?
341
00:18:41,421 --> 00:18:43,588
Personally, Joe, I
see this as a script
342
00:18:43,590 --> 00:18:45,123
for a
Hollywood movie.
343
00:18:45,125 --> 00:18:47,391
Only in Hollywood can
this kind of crap happen.
344
00:18:47,393 --> 00:18:49,560
The only Hollywood movie
I see happening here
345
00:18:49,562 --> 00:18:51,295
is a disaster
movie.
346
00:18:51,297 --> 00:18:54,298
And there will be
a disaster because
347
00:18:54,300 --> 00:18:56,634
this is real life and what
you're going to see here
348
00:18:56,636 --> 00:18:59,337
is real life and
he will crap out
349
00:18:59,339 --> 00:19:01,372
and take the
championship with him.
350
00:19:01,374 --> 00:19:05,276
¶ I wonder why
sometimes I cry ¶
351
00:19:05,278 --> 00:19:09,647
¶ I wonder why
someday I'll die ¶
352
00:19:09,649 --> 00:19:14,819
¶ I wonder why I
just can't fly ¶
353
00:19:14,821 --> 00:19:18,456
¶ I wonder all
the time ¶
354
00:19:18,458 --> 00:19:22,493
¶ I wonder why I
just can't see ¶
355
00:19:22,495 --> 00:19:27,165
¶ I wonder why
you just left me ¶
356
00:19:27,167 --> 00:19:32,403
¶ Am I the one
that only sees ¶
357
00:19:32,405 --> 00:19:34,372
¶ I wonder ¶
358
00:19:34,374 --> 00:19:36,174
Lou, I don't know
where to start.
359
00:19:36,176 --> 00:19:38,276
You know I'm not
only a journalist,
360
00:19:38,278 --> 00:19:39,577
I'm also a fan.
361
00:19:39,579 --> 00:19:41,579
I've been a fan of this
guy for so many years.
362
00:19:41,581 --> 00:19:43,214
Tom, how long have
we known each other?
363
00:19:43,216 --> 00:19:44,382
- Many years.
364
00:19:44,384 --> 00:19:45,683
People didn't
believe you.
365
00:19:45,685 --> 00:19:47,552
They called you somebody
who was not willing
366
00:19:47,554 --> 00:19:48,786
to win a
championship.
367
00:19:48,788 --> 00:19:50,321
- Wait a minute.
368
00:19:50,323 --> 00:19:52,223
You're one of the guys
who didn't believe in me.
369
00:19:52,225 --> 00:19:54,192
- I believed in you.
I believed in Joey.
370
00:19:54,194 --> 00:19:56,394
Yeah, but out
of the 38 years
371
00:19:56,396 --> 00:19:58,829
you were here
with me about 15.
372
00:19:58,831 --> 00:20:00,464
- And I always
believed, like you,
373
00:20:00,466 --> 00:20:01,866
in his skill set.
374
00:20:01,867 --> 00:20:03,267
I always thought he
had the best technique.
375
00:20:03,269 --> 00:20:05,303
Brilliant goaltender, he
tanks for many years,
376
00:20:05,305 --> 00:20:07,838
people think you should
get a better goaltender.
377
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:09,207
You stuck with him.
378
00:20:09,209 --> 00:20:11,309
I signed a 20-year
contract with him.
379
00:20:11,311 --> 00:20:12,443
You know that.
380
00:20:12,445 --> 00:20:14,095
- Yeah.
381
00:20:14,096 --> 00:20:15,746
And he left me
after 15 years
382
00:20:15,748 --> 00:20:18,382
because he had that
problem as you know.
383
00:20:18,384 --> 00:20:20,651
Tom, you covered
it. You were there.
384
00:20:20,653 --> 00:20:22,653
Also, I want to
congratulate you
385
00:20:22,655 --> 00:20:23,988
and thank you
very much
386
00:20:23,990 --> 00:20:26,524
for the way that
you've treated me.
387
00:20:26,526 --> 00:20:28,793
There were so many people
doubting and saying I was
388
00:20:28,795 --> 00:20:31,262
crazy to even have him on
the team but it was you
389
00:20:31,264 --> 00:20:33,998
who had the positive
look at it and said
390
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,434
he's better than
we think he is.
391
00:20:36,436 --> 00:20:37,802
He had a problem.
392
00:20:37,804 --> 00:20:39,370
Let's give him
a second chance
393
00:20:39,372 --> 00:20:40,571
if he does
come back.
394
00:20:40,573 --> 00:20:41,739
You said that.
395
00:20:41,741 --> 00:20:45,443
I did not work my
whole goddamn life
396
00:20:45,445 --> 00:20:49,513
to get where I
am just to lose.
397
00:20:49,515 --> 00:20:52,316
Gentlemen, we play
against them tonight.
398
00:20:52,318 --> 00:20:54,252
A lot of things
I can say.
399
00:20:54,254 --> 00:20:56,821
On this paper I got them,
I'm throwing it away.
400
00:20:56,823 --> 00:20:58,956
You've treated
him like a son.
401
00:20:58,958 --> 00:21:02,460
We're talking money,
we're talking sports.
402
00:21:02,462 --> 00:21:04,629
It's about money, but
it's not about money
403
00:21:04,631 --> 00:21:06,564
in your case.
404
00:21:06,565 --> 00:21:08,498
I have to tell you, I
spoke to Marcel Dionne
405
00:21:08,501 --> 00:21:11,469
before the game and
Marcel looked at me
406
00:21:11,471 --> 00:21:14,405
You're gonna win today.
407
00:21:14,407 --> 00:21:16,540
- He said this
to you tonight?
408
00:21:16,542 --> 00:21:20,745
You're gonna win today.
409
00:21:20,747 --> 00:21:22,013
I said, Marcel,
come on.
410
00:21:22,015 --> 00:21:23,881
I know you're a
great hockey player with
411
00:21:23,883 --> 00:21:26,417
Gretzky and Bobby Orr and
everybody, but come on.
412
00:21:26,419 --> 00:21:28,486
I wish I
could be as sure.
413
00:21:28,488 --> 00:21:30,354
- What craziness
made you do this?
414
00:21:30,356 --> 00:21:32,790
'Cause I'm a nutjob.
I'm a nutjob.
415
00:21:32,792 --> 00:21:35,760
Game seven..
416
00:21:35,762 --> 00:21:37,295
Joey!
417
00:21:37,297 --> 00:21:38,896
- What are you
doing here?
418
00:21:38,898 --> 00:21:40,765
I came to
watch the game.
419
00:21:40,767 --> 00:21:43,067
- I appreciate that.
420
00:21:43,069 --> 00:21:45,403
I gotta go, I
gotta go, thanks.
421
00:21:45,405 --> 00:21:46,504
- Good luck...
422
00:21:46,506 --> 00:21:48,906
sweetie.
423
00:21:48,908 --> 00:21:50,708
Game seven..
424
00:21:50,710 --> 00:21:52,710
Now we can go
straight to heaven
425
00:21:52,712 --> 00:21:55,813
or you can all go
straight to hell.
426
00:21:59,452 --> 00:22:02,820
Welcome back.
427
00:22:02,822 --> 00:22:04,789
They got kryptonite
on their team.
428
00:22:04,791 --> 00:22:06,857
Their kryptonite is they
got an old fucking goalie.
429
00:22:06,859 --> 00:22:09,093
Their goaltender
stinks. Get on him.
430
00:22:09,095 --> 00:22:10,895
Get on him hard.
Alright?
431
00:22:10,897 --> 00:22:12,363
Character
always wins.
432
00:22:12,365 --> 00:22:14,865
Let's go at him, go at
him hard, and we win.
433
00:22:22,342 --> 00:22:26,811
Now let's do our best
to bring a little pride
434
00:22:26,813 --> 00:22:28,846
back to this team!
435
00:22:28,848 --> 00:22:35,419
Now you sons of bitches
go out there and you win!
436
00:22:35,421 --> 00:22:36,787
Let's go.
Come on.
437
00:22:36,789 --> 00:22:38,422
Come on,
let's go, boys.
438
00:22:41,027 --> 00:22:47,531
¶
439
00:22:47,533 --> 00:22:52,770
He is the poster
boy for loser.
440
00:22:52,772 --> 00:22:54,705
He is his own
worst enemy.
441
00:22:54,707 --> 00:22:57,108
And I don't understand
how an old guy
442
00:22:57,110 --> 00:23:00,044
like Joey Bird is
gonna get in that net
443
00:23:00,046 --> 00:23:02,913
- against the New York
21s, one of the best
444
00:23:02,915 --> 00:23:04,648
teams to ever
take the ice -
445
00:23:04,650 --> 00:23:06,917
in the championship
and stop the puck.
446
00:23:06,919 --> 00:23:08,719
I say no.
447
00:23:08,721 --> 00:23:10,621
I know you say no, but
you're gonna run for
448
00:23:10,623 --> 00:23:12,556
mayor and you're
gonna be told no.
449
00:23:12,558 --> 00:23:13,858
But I can
tell you,
450
00:23:13,860 --> 00:23:16,093
Joey Bird is a
student of his art.
451
00:23:16,095 --> 00:23:18,396
He loves
goaltending.
452
00:23:18,398 --> 00:23:19,663
He knows
how to play.
453
00:23:19,665 --> 00:23:21,766
He knows how to
play the game to win.
454
00:23:21,768 --> 00:23:23,467
All he's gonna
have to do
455
00:23:23,469 --> 00:23:25,002
is keep his
team in the game
456
00:23:25,004 --> 00:23:27,872
and he can thank
Lou Brown for that.
457
00:23:27,874 --> 00:23:29,407
And I'm still
disappointed
458
00:23:29,409 --> 00:23:30,875
in what you
said about him.
459
00:23:30,877 --> 00:23:33,577
Bill? You're dreaming
but I still love ya.
460
00:24:21,661 --> 00:24:28,933
And please welcome back
number 35, Joey Bird!
461
00:24:28,935 --> 00:24:43,848
¶
462
00:24:43,850 --> 00:24:45,015
Mr. Brown.
463
00:24:45,017 --> 00:24:47,585
- You didn't
forget me then, huh?
464
00:24:47,587 --> 00:24:50,087
Good seeing
you, kid.
465
00:24:50,089 --> 00:24:52,756
We're in the seventh game
of the championship,
466
00:24:52,758 --> 00:24:53,958
you know that.
467
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,793
I want you to
play in that game.
468
00:24:55,795 --> 00:24:58,529
Kid?
469
00:24:58,531 --> 00:24:59,830
Don't play.
470
00:24:59,832 --> 00:25:01,565
You know why?
471
00:25:01,567 --> 00:25:03,534
'Cause you're
a loser.
472
00:25:08,808 --> 00:25:10,541
Ladies and gentlemen,
boys and girls,
473
00:25:10,543 --> 00:25:15,012
please now stand for
our national anthem.
474
00:25:15,014 --> 00:25:20,784
¶ Oh, say can
you see ¶
475
00:25:20,786 --> 00:25:26,290
¶ by the dawn's
early light ¶
476
00:25:26,292 --> 00:25:31,929
¶ what so
proudly we hailed ¶
477
00:25:31,931 --> 00:25:37,601
¶ at the twilight's
last gleaming ¶
478
00:25:37,603 --> 00:25:43,741
¶ whose broad stripes
and bright stars ¶
479
00:25:43,743 --> 00:25:49,880
¶ through the
perilous fight ¶
480
00:25:49,882 --> 00:25:56,020
¶ o'er the ramparts
we watched ¶
481
00:25:56,022 --> 00:26:02,826
¶ were so
gallantly streaming ¶
482
00:26:02,828 --> 00:26:08,766
¶ and the
rockets red glare ¶
483
00:26:08,768 --> 00:26:14,738
¶ the bombs
bursting in air ¶
484
00:26:14,740 --> 00:26:20,811
¶ gave proof
through the night ¶
485
00:26:20,813 --> 00:26:26,884
¶ that our flag
was still there ¶
486
00:26:26,886 --> 00:26:40,264
¶ O say does that star
spangled banner yet wave ¶
487
00:26:40,266 --> 00:26:48,005
¶ o'er the land
of the free ¶
488
00:26:48,007 --> 00:26:56,614
¶ and the home
of the brave ¶
489
00:27:07,827 --> 00:27:10,027
Well, for every
player out there
490
00:27:10,029 --> 00:27:11,862
this is their
big chance.
491
00:27:11,864 --> 00:27:13,330
They've never had
this opportunity
492
00:27:13,332 --> 00:27:14,732
and here
they are.
493
00:27:14,734 --> 00:27:17,034
- Well, 37 years in
the making, Joe.
494
00:27:17,036 --> 00:27:18,669
It's worth it.
495
00:27:24,010 --> 00:27:28,245
I know I don't
deserve to be here.
496
00:27:28,247 --> 00:27:30,981
I know I do not
deserve to be here.
497
00:27:30,983 --> 00:27:35,352
But please, if not for
me, but for my family and
498
00:27:35,354 --> 00:27:37,855
the fans of this team and
all the hockey players,
499
00:27:37,857 --> 00:27:40,391
help me succeed.
500
00:27:40,393 --> 00:27:42,059
I don't want to
punish this team.
501
00:27:42,061 --> 00:27:45,829
I don't want to punish
the coach or Mr. Brown,
502
00:27:45,831 --> 00:27:49,433
my wife and my father
and all the fans here
503
00:27:49,435 --> 00:27:52,269
for being
a loser.
504
00:27:52,271 --> 00:27:53,904
Please.
505
00:27:58,210 --> 00:28:01,178
Puck into the New York
21 zone out to center.
506
00:28:04,383 --> 00:28:06,717
Back on the 21s.
507
00:28:06,719 --> 00:28:07,985
New York...
508
00:28:14,326 --> 00:28:17,261
Little bit of
pressure by New York.
509
00:28:17,263 --> 00:28:20,064
In the zone and he
turns the puck over.
510
00:28:23,102 --> 00:28:25,302
Dump it deep.
511
00:28:25,304 --> 00:28:27,037
Come on, Joe!
512
00:28:27,039 --> 00:28:28,806
I'm sorry.
513
00:28:28,808 --> 00:28:30,908
Joey, fly high!
514
00:28:34,313 --> 00:28:36,714
Back in front,
back onto New York,
515
00:28:36,716 --> 00:28:38,282
the 21s bring
it to center...
516
00:28:38,284 --> 00:28:39,917
Scores!
517
00:28:41,987 --> 00:28:43,487
Fuck!
518
00:28:43,489 --> 00:28:45,389
I mean, that was
a beautiful goal.
519
00:28:45,391 --> 00:28:46,757
Top cheese.
520
00:28:46,759 --> 00:28:49,793
Hey Bird!
You suck!
521
00:28:49,795 --> 00:28:55,065
¶
522
00:28:55,067 --> 00:28:56,934
Well, they
appear disinterested.
523
00:28:56,936 --> 00:28:58,368
I know they
aren't, Jim,
524
00:28:58,370 --> 00:29:00,204
but they've gotta
show more enthusiasm.
525
00:29:00,206 --> 00:29:02,806
They've gotta get some
drive in their game.
526
00:29:02,808 --> 00:29:04,274
They're just wasting
time out there
527
00:29:04,276 --> 00:29:07,277
and they can't expect
Joey Bird to score.
528
00:29:07,279 --> 00:29:16,086
¶
529
00:29:16,088 --> 00:29:18,956
Joey! You got no
help, Joey, babe.
530
00:29:18,958 --> 00:29:22,159
You got no
offense.
531
00:29:22,161 --> 00:29:24,928
Son of a bitch.
532
00:29:24,930 --> 00:29:26,296
What's he
supposed to do,
533
00:29:26,298 --> 00:29:29,233
play this whole
game himself?
534
00:29:29,235 --> 00:29:31,502
Hey Bird!
You suck!
535
00:29:31,504 --> 00:29:34,004
Hey lady! You
ever play hockey?
536
00:29:34,006 --> 00:29:35,272
What's it
to you?
537
00:29:35,274 --> 00:29:36,840
I'm asking!
538
00:29:36,842 --> 00:29:39,910
If you ever played hockey
you'd shut the fuck up.
539
00:29:39,912 --> 00:29:41,278
- Ah, fuck off.
540
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,347
Alright,
face-off.
541
00:29:43,349 --> 00:29:45,282
Cincinnati
wins it.
542
00:29:45,284 --> 00:29:49,520
Past Bedeka
on the far side.
543
00:29:49,522 --> 00:29:51,822
Thrown back
to the point.
544
00:29:54,260 --> 00:29:55,425
Kyle.. Shot!
545
00:29:55,427 --> 00:29:57,361
And it's kicked away
with a right pad.
546
00:29:57,363 --> 00:30:01,064
On to the right side,
back on New York.
547
00:30:01,066 --> 00:30:03,167
21s get it
to center.
548
00:30:07,239 --> 00:30:08,872
Cheetahs trying
to turn up ice
549
00:30:08,874 --> 00:30:11,008
out of their
own zone.
550
00:30:11,010 --> 00:30:12,276
Eric Becker
after him.
551
00:30:12,278 --> 00:30:14,311
Becker behind
the net.
552
00:30:18,417 --> 00:30:19,550
Puck to center..
553
00:30:19,552 --> 00:30:21,185
Bastasin
couldn't get it.
554
00:30:21,187 --> 00:30:23,220
New York trying
to get the zone.
555
00:30:23,222 --> 00:30:24,822
Thrown in front..
556
00:30:24,824 --> 00:30:26,590
And there's a
great opportunity
557
00:30:26,592 --> 00:30:28,492
for the
Cheetahs.
558
00:30:28,494 --> 00:30:30,294
Back on the 21s.
559
00:30:30,296 --> 00:30:35,098
Puck possession inside
the Cincinnati zone.
560
00:30:35,100 --> 00:30:37,301
Spun out in front,
that's knocked away
561
00:30:37,303 --> 00:30:39,169
and back
come Cincinnati
562
00:30:39,171 --> 00:30:42,372
- the Cheetahs
over the line.
563
00:30:42,374 --> 00:30:44,174
Here they
come again.
564
00:30:44,176 --> 00:30:46,043
Here come
the Cheetahs.
565
00:30:46,045 --> 00:30:48,912
Shoots! And
that's stopped.
566
00:30:48,914 --> 00:30:50,414
Back comes
New York.
567
00:30:50,416 --> 00:30:52,382
Played out
the right side.
568
00:30:52,384 --> 00:30:56,420
Little bit of
pressure by Cincinnati.
569
00:30:56,422 --> 00:31:00,891
Picked off
by Harpur.
570
00:31:00,893 --> 00:31:03,327
Back come Cincinnati
over the line.
571
00:31:03,329 --> 00:31:05,062
Harpur with it.
572
00:31:05,064 --> 00:31:07,030
It's Harpur
over the line
573
00:31:07,032 --> 00:31:08,999
and Harpur spins into
the left wing boards..
574
00:31:09,001 --> 00:31:11,101
Circles...
575
00:31:15,207 --> 00:31:17,341
after it
behind the net.
576
00:31:20,079 --> 00:31:22,479
Tries to flip it out,
knocked back down.
577
00:31:22,481 --> 00:31:24,948
Back come
the Cheetahs.
578
00:31:24,950 --> 00:31:27,517
And Harpur again with
a great opportunity
579
00:31:27,519 --> 00:31:29,620
but is stopped
in close.
580
00:31:43,202 --> 00:31:45,302
And Luke
Gazdic with it.
581
00:31:45,304 --> 00:31:47,204
Here we go, guys.
582
00:31:47,206 --> 00:31:49,573
Here we go,
we're coming!
583
00:31:49,575 --> 00:31:52,175
It's up to
you, Joey!
584
00:31:52,177 --> 00:31:53,577
- Joey Bird!
585
00:31:53,579 --> 00:31:56,246
Cincinnati
to center.
586
00:31:56,248 --> 00:31:58,982
They're just gonna
play it inside the line.
587
00:31:58,984 --> 00:32:01,218
All kinds of
possession
588
00:32:01,220 --> 00:32:04,354
but nothing
getting to the net.
589
00:32:04,356 --> 00:32:08,158
The Cheetahs still
looking for that goal
590
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,128
to get back
into this game.
591
00:32:11,130 --> 00:32:13,630
They throw
to the point..
592
00:32:13,632 --> 00:32:15,198
Back come
New York.
593
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:19,269
Here's a two on 0..
Over to the right..
594
00:32:19,271 --> 00:32:21,004
Shot! Bird got
a piece of that.
595
00:32:21,006 --> 00:32:22,940
That almost found
the back of the net.
596
00:32:22,942 --> 00:32:24,508
That's my boy!
597
00:32:30,115 --> 00:32:33,483
Back come
Cincinnati.
598
00:32:33,485 --> 00:32:35,319
Cincinnati
to center,
599
00:32:35,321 --> 00:32:37,955
they're gonna play
it inside the line.
600
00:32:42,695 --> 00:32:45,195
And the 21s taking
care of any rebounds
601
00:32:45,197 --> 00:32:47,631
in front of their
own goaltender.
602
00:32:51,070 --> 00:32:53,036
Played out
the side.
603
00:32:55,641 --> 00:32:57,741
Shot! And it's
kicked away.
604
00:33:01,180 --> 00:33:03,280
And that's
knocked away.
605
00:33:05,351 --> 00:33:08,285
Back toward the
left wing boards.
606
00:33:08,287 --> 00:33:13,490
Now Kyle.. Konopka
on the far side.
607
00:33:13,492 --> 00:33:15,125
Back come
the Cheetahs.
608
00:33:15,127 --> 00:33:17,194
Turned back
the other way.
609
00:33:17,196 --> 00:33:18,996
Dump it deep.
610
00:33:22,634 --> 00:33:24,301
Pass to Medica,
on the far side.
611
00:33:28,707 --> 00:33:31,174
Thrown back
to the point.
612
00:33:31,176 --> 00:33:33,310
Puck into the 21s
zone up to center.
613
00:33:33,312 --> 00:33:34,644
Yashin throws it
up the middle,
614
00:33:34,646 --> 00:33:35,746
here comes
Gazdic!
615
00:33:35,748 --> 00:33:37,247
Gazdic.. Oh!
616
00:33:37,249 --> 00:33:40,350
That almost found
the back of the net.
617
00:33:47,393 --> 00:33:49,493
Ready with
the face-off.
618
00:33:54,633 --> 00:33:56,433
Back come
New York..
619
00:33:56,435 --> 00:33:58,435
To center..
620
00:33:58,437 --> 00:34:00,404
The next goal
could be a big one..
621
00:34:00,406 --> 00:34:02,672
Back in front and
it's fired just wide.
622
00:34:02,674 --> 00:34:06,209
Cincinnati
to center,
623
00:34:06,211 --> 00:34:09,479
they're just gonna
play it inside the line.
624
00:34:09,481 --> 00:34:12,616
Thrown in front and
that's knocked away.
625
00:34:12,618 --> 00:34:17,788
Cincinnati looking
for their first goal.
626
00:34:17,790 --> 00:34:19,523
And Harpur waits.
627
00:34:19,525 --> 00:34:24,761
Konopka on the far side,
back come the Cheetahs.
628
00:34:24,763 --> 00:34:27,531
He's a little
shaky right now,
629
00:34:27,533 --> 00:34:30,400
but you see how
he's playing.
630
00:34:30,402 --> 00:34:32,319
- Yeah.
631
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:34,237
Over the line,
here come New York.
632
00:34:37,176 --> 00:34:40,710
Threw the puck out
of their own zone.
633
00:34:40,712 --> 00:34:43,513
Off his stick
and wide.
634
00:34:52,491 --> 00:34:55,525
..With a slap.
Looks back...
635
00:34:55,527 --> 00:34:58,228
New York...
Dump it deep.
636
00:34:58,230 --> 00:35:00,363
Breakaway pass
has picked off,
637
00:35:00,365 --> 00:35:02,566
turned back
the other way.
638
00:35:10,509 --> 00:35:12,242
He's kind of shaky.
He doesn't seem..
639
00:35:12,244 --> 00:35:13,477
- Got plenty
of time.
640
00:35:13,479 --> 00:35:14,644
He's covering
the net,
641
00:35:14,646 --> 00:35:16,513
he's coming out
a little too far.
642
00:35:16,515 --> 00:35:19,216
I would hope that he
stayed back a little.
643
00:35:19,218 --> 00:35:22,652
This way he'll have
to cover less ground.
644
00:35:22,654 --> 00:35:24,187
- He's a little slow.
645
00:35:24,189 --> 00:35:25,455
He's slow, yeah.
646
00:35:25,457 --> 00:35:26,423
- Resting.
647
00:35:26,425 --> 00:35:27,657
But he's coming,
he's coming.
648
00:35:27,659 --> 00:35:30,160
I got all the confidence
in the world in him.
649
00:35:30,162 --> 00:35:35,866
Please, give
me the strength
650
00:35:35,868 --> 00:35:41,171
not to be a
coward. Ever.
651
00:35:41,173 --> 00:35:44,141
And let me
win this game.
652
00:35:44,143 --> 00:35:48,411
Let me win this game
for all the people
653
00:35:48,413 --> 00:35:52,149
who thought
they were losers.
654
00:35:52,151 --> 00:35:54,751
I want to
win this game.
655
00:35:57,422 --> 00:35:58,855
Please.
656
00:36:02,694 --> 00:36:04,461
Off the
face-off again.
657
00:36:04,463 --> 00:36:09,232
Puck possession inside
the Cincinnati zone.
658
00:36:09,234 --> 00:36:11,835
New York trying
to get the zone.
659
00:36:11,837 --> 00:36:15,305
Thrown back
to the point.
660
00:36:15,307 --> 00:36:16,740
Over the line.
661
00:36:21,513 --> 00:36:24,314
And New York
once again.
662
00:36:24,316 --> 00:36:27,817
They throw it
to the point..
663
00:36:27,819 --> 00:36:32,322
Shot! Bird got
a piece of that.
664
00:36:32,324 --> 00:36:34,391
Shot! Scores!
665
00:36:35,827 --> 00:36:37,727
Oh, man!
666
00:36:37,729 --> 00:36:41,565
This might be the last
of somebody's career
667
00:36:41,567 --> 00:36:44,434
if the Cincinnati
Cheetahs don't find
668
00:36:44,436 --> 00:36:46,603
a way to get back
into this game.
669
00:36:46,605 --> 00:36:48,838
- I would say Lou
Brown's career.
670
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,975
This could be it
for the Big Lou.
671
00:36:51,977 --> 00:36:55,545
Dammit. We're
down two.
672
00:36:55,547 --> 00:36:58,481
- The period's
almost over.
673
00:36:58,483 --> 00:36:59,983
The guys are
skating now.
674
00:36:59,985 --> 00:37:01,484
- He's looking
better.
675
00:37:01,486 --> 00:37:02,752
Hey moron!
676
00:37:02,754 --> 00:37:04,354
Bird!
677
00:37:04,356 --> 00:37:05,622
You're a moron!
678
00:37:05,624 --> 00:37:07,757
Lady, will you please
shut the fuck up.
679
00:37:07,759 --> 00:37:09,693
What's it
to you?
680
00:37:09,694 --> 00:37:11,628
I've as much right to
say anything as you have.
681
00:37:11,630 --> 00:37:13,563
Lady, if you do not
shut the fuck up,
682
00:37:13,565 --> 00:37:14,864
I will tear out
your dentures
683
00:37:14,866 --> 00:37:16,800
and bite your
fucking ass with them!
684
00:37:16,802 --> 00:37:18,935
Oh, I don't wear
dentures, lady.
685
00:37:18,937 --> 00:37:22,239
If you don't shut the
fuck up you fucking will!
686
00:37:25,410 --> 00:37:27,978
How could I
let that in?
687
00:37:27,980 --> 00:37:30,447
Oh, fuck.
688
00:37:30,449 --> 00:37:34,551
I got the reflexes of
a pregnant rhinoceros.
689
00:37:38,991 --> 00:37:40,490
Alright, face-off.
690
00:37:40,492 --> 00:37:42,459
Cincinnati wins it.
691
00:37:44,963 --> 00:37:47,931
And New York
once again..
692
00:37:47,933 --> 00:37:52,836
They'll clear the puck
out of their own zone.
693
00:37:52,838 --> 00:37:59,542
Now Kyle in his zone and
he turns the puck over.
694
00:37:59,544 --> 00:38:04,581
21s continue to
hold onto it.
695
00:38:04,583 --> 00:38:07,350
Harpur...
696
00:38:07,352 --> 00:38:13,323
Puck possession inside
the Cincinnati zone.
697
00:38:13,325 --> 00:38:16,426
Shot! And it's
kicked away!
698
00:38:23,335 --> 00:38:24,834
The Cincinnati
Cheetahs
699
00:38:24,836 --> 00:38:27,370
find themselves
in some trouble.
700
00:38:27,372 --> 00:38:29,673
Very early they find
themselves in a hole
701
00:38:29,675 --> 00:38:32,676
and they have not been
able to climb out of it.
702
00:38:32,678 --> 00:38:39,382
¶
703
00:38:39,384 --> 00:38:41,451
We're joined by
Cincinnati Cheetahs owner
704
00:38:41,453 --> 00:38:42,652
Lou Brown.
705
00:38:42,654 --> 00:38:44,354
And Lou, a lot of
people are wondering
706
00:38:44,356 --> 00:38:47,424
have you lost your mind
putting Joey Bird in goal
707
00:38:47,426 --> 00:38:49,326
for the
championship game?
708
00:38:49,328 --> 00:38:52,595
Well, at this point I'm
not quite sure, you know?
709
00:38:52,597 --> 00:38:55,332
Everything is
sort of in the dark,
710
00:38:55,334 --> 00:38:58,001
in sort of a maze,
and I'm not sure
711
00:38:58,003 --> 00:39:00,003
exactly what's
gonna happen.
712
00:39:00,005 --> 00:39:01,504
I took a chance
713
00:39:01,506 --> 00:39:03,073
but it wasn't
really a big chance.
714
00:39:03,075 --> 00:39:04,974
I needed somebody, I
had two goalies out.
715
00:39:04,976 --> 00:39:07,410
I truly had no
alternative and the
716
00:39:07,412 --> 00:39:09,479
closest thing to a
solution I thought
717
00:39:09,481 --> 00:39:11,481
was Joey Bird.
718
00:39:11,483 --> 00:39:12,816
- You're
the owner,
719
00:39:12,818 --> 00:39:15,018
you have to make those
decisions and you did.
720
00:39:15,020 --> 00:39:17,020
You showed compassion
for a young man
721
00:39:17,022 --> 00:39:18,655
who had lost
his way.
722
00:39:18,657 --> 00:39:20,590
I admire everything
you've done along the
723
00:39:20,592 --> 00:39:23,660
way whether you've
won 37 or lost 37.
724
00:39:23,662 --> 00:39:26,796
You showed Joey Bird
another opportunity
725
00:39:26,798 --> 00:39:29,399
and I know
one thing.
726
00:39:29,401 --> 00:39:31,568
Based on my
recollections of him
727
00:39:31,570 --> 00:39:33,937
as a goalie, he will
not let you down.
728
00:39:33,939 --> 00:39:35,856
- Listen, Lou.
729
00:39:35,857 --> 00:39:37,774
I hate to disagree with
my partner Bill here,
730
00:39:37,776 --> 00:39:40,510
but you're a
sports owner.
731
00:39:40,512 --> 00:39:42,179
- Yeah.
732
00:39:42,180 --> 00:39:43,847
Your job is to
win a championship.
733
00:39:43,849 --> 00:39:46,082
How are you gonna
do that with a guy who
734
00:39:46,084 --> 00:39:48,151
hasn't played since
I don't know when?
735
00:39:48,153 --> 00:39:50,620
- Well, I'll be
honest with you.
736
00:39:50,622 --> 00:39:54,457
I think we're gonna find
that out relatively soon.
737
00:39:54,459 --> 00:39:57,427
And I have faith
that he can still play.
738
00:39:57,429 --> 00:39:59,129
Sure, he hasn't
played in 15 years
739
00:39:59,131 --> 00:40:01,064
and it's partly
my fault.
740
00:40:01,066 --> 00:40:04,901
He left us after 15
years and I didn't
741
00:40:04,903 --> 00:40:06,803
find him for a
long period of time.
742
00:40:06,805 --> 00:40:08,471
I tried reaching
out to him
743
00:40:08,473 --> 00:40:09,873
and I was
unsuccessful.
744
00:40:09,875 --> 00:40:11,741
Some people told me
he was playing in a
745
00:40:11,743 --> 00:40:13,743
beer league so I
thought he was still
746
00:40:13,745 --> 00:40:15,111
somewhat active.
747
00:40:15,113 --> 00:40:18,081
I realized he was past 40
but there was no one that
748
00:40:18,083 --> 00:40:21,084
I trusted enough that was
free to be my goalie for
749
00:40:21,086 --> 00:40:24,020
a championship game
that I had any faith in.
750
00:40:24,022 --> 00:40:26,189
The faith I
had was in Joey.
751
00:40:26,191 --> 00:40:28,091
It's just that I
believe he can do it.
752
00:40:28,093 --> 00:40:31,127
He's told me
he can do it.
753
00:40:31,129 --> 00:40:35,064
He's probably as
unsure as I have been
754
00:40:35,066 --> 00:40:36,933
but he has told me.
755
00:40:36,935 --> 00:40:39,068
He looked right into
my face and he said
756
00:40:39,070 --> 00:40:43,473
"Mr. Brown, I promise I'm
gonna do everything I can
757
00:40:43,475 --> 00:40:46,509
to bring you your
first championship".
758
00:40:46,511 --> 00:40:47,977
Which of course
would have been
759
00:40:47,979 --> 00:40:49,946
his first
championship as well.
760
00:40:49,948 --> 00:40:51,714
So I went with
that. I believed.
761
00:40:51,716 --> 00:40:53,917
I believe and maybe
there's a guy upstairs
762
00:40:53,919 --> 00:40:55,852
- or a woman,
whoever that is -
763
00:40:55,854 --> 00:40:59,589
will allow us to live
the dream that we have,
764
00:40:59,591 --> 00:41:01,658
both he and I, and
the rest of the team.
765
00:41:01,660 --> 00:41:03,226
Because, listen, I
have a great team.
766
00:41:03,228 --> 00:41:05,895
Great offense, great
defense - great team.
767
00:41:05,897 --> 00:41:07,964
- Your compassion
and trust, to me,
768
00:41:07,966 --> 00:41:10,967
is what makes this
opportunity for Joe Bird.
769
00:41:10,969 --> 00:41:12,836
But I gotta tell
you, I'm so nervous.
770
00:41:12,838 --> 00:41:15,505
And I understand your
reason for being somewhat
771
00:41:15,507 --> 00:41:18,007
negative but you're being
awfully kind even in your
772
00:41:18,009 --> 00:41:21,211
negative approach to me
and I understand you're a
773
00:41:21,213 --> 00:41:23,580
reporter trying to get
as much information
774
00:41:23,582 --> 00:41:26,015
as possible, but
I.. I trust him.
775
00:41:26,017 --> 00:41:28,751
And I hope you understand
that I'm not a fool.
776
00:41:28,753 --> 00:41:30,687
I've been in this
business too long,
777
00:41:30,689 --> 00:41:33,656
you know, and Marcel
Dionne once said to me,
778
00:41:33,658 --> 00:41:36,125
he said "Lou, I love
you. You're a winner".
779
00:41:36,127 --> 00:41:39,629
Of course it's taken
me 38 years to get,
780
00:41:39,631 --> 00:41:44,234
and hopefully
that will happen.
781
00:41:44,236 --> 00:41:46,002
- Well, Joe's
gonna run for mayor,
782
00:41:46,004 --> 00:41:47,804
so we're gonna see
how good he is.
783
00:41:47,806 --> 00:41:48,972
- Are you really?
784
00:41:48,974 --> 00:41:50,139
We'll see
about that.
785
00:41:50,141 --> 00:41:51,708
Lou, I do
admire your faith.
786
00:41:51,710 --> 00:41:53,743
I do admire
your faith.
787
00:41:53,745 --> 00:41:56,613
It's honorable
but I just think
788
00:41:56,615 --> 00:41:59,048
you're making
a big mistake.
789
00:41:59,050 --> 00:42:00,617
I've told
Billy that,
790
00:42:00,619 --> 00:42:01,985
I've told the
folks at home.
791
00:42:01,987 --> 00:42:03,520
- But you don't
have that right
792
00:42:03,522 --> 00:42:04,888
just because you're
an announcer.
793
00:42:04,890 --> 00:42:06,656
I feel like you're
making a big mistake
794
00:42:06,658 --> 00:42:09,993
but you're gonna do
what you're gonna do.
795
00:42:09,995 --> 00:42:11,628
You're the
owner of the team.
796
00:42:11,629 --> 00:42:13,262
It is your right to do
what you want to do and I
797
00:42:13,265 --> 00:42:15,131
wish you the best of luck
and I want to thank you
798
00:42:15,133 --> 00:42:16,299
for coming on
here and joining us.
799
00:42:16,301 --> 00:42:18,668
Can I tell you
one last thing?
800
00:42:18,670 --> 00:42:21,271
If we don't win,
I'm gonna cry like a son of a bitch.
801
00:42:21,273 --> 00:42:23,273
Excuse my language,
can I say that?
802
00:42:23,275 --> 00:42:24,574
- Oh, sure.
803
00:42:24,576 --> 00:42:26,709
- You just did,
so it's okay.
804
00:42:26,711 --> 00:42:28,077
Thanks for
joining us.
805
00:42:28,079 --> 00:42:29,712
- Thanks Lou.
806
00:42:29,714 --> 00:42:31,848
Alright,
here we go.
807
00:42:31,850 --> 00:42:33,816
Cincinnati again.
808
00:42:36,988 --> 00:42:39,255
Back to the
middle of the ice.
809
00:42:39,257 --> 00:42:40,890
Puck zone
to center.
810
00:42:40,892 --> 00:42:42,325
It bounces.
811
00:42:48,066 --> 00:42:50,266
Cheetahs trying to turn
it out of their own zone.
812
00:42:54,839 --> 00:42:56,272
Over to the
right! Shot!
813
00:42:56,274 --> 00:42:58,308
Bird got a
piece of it!
814
00:42:58,310 --> 00:42:59,909
What a save!
815
00:43:09,788 --> 00:43:11,788
They've got a big
mountain to climb,
816
00:43:11,790 --> 00:43:13,590
that's for sure.
817
00:43:13,592 --> 00:43:16,359
And I really can't say
I like their chances.
818
00:43:21,967 --> 00:43:23,733
Alright, back
under way.
819
00:43:23,735 --> 00:43:25,835
Cincinnati wins it.
820
00:43:28,673 --> 00:43:31,074
New York.
821
00:43:31,076 --> 00:43:36,079
Puck possession inside
the Cincinnati zone.
822
00:43:36,081 --> 00:43:38,648
That's knocked away.
823
00:43:38,650 --> 00:43:41,918
New York
once again.
824
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:45,722
Back in front and
that's fired just wide.
825
00:43:45,724 --> 00:43:47,957
Tries to flip it out,
knocked back down.
826
00:43:47,959 --> 00:43:51,728
Dump it deep.
827
00:43:53,264 --> 00:43:55,632
Cincinnati
Cheetahs.
828
00:43:55,634 --> 00:43:59,135
Down it's gonna go to
a face-off to the left.
829
00:43:59,137 --> 00:44:01,170
Now the Cincinnati
Cheetahs goaltender
830
00:44:01,172 --> 00:44:02,805
Joey Bird...
831
00:44:08,380 --> 00:44:11,314
Alright, back
under way.
832
00:44:11,316 --> 00:44:16,786
Puck into the New York
21s zone, out to center.
833
00:44:16,788 --> 00:44:18,287
Liambas drops it.
834
00:44:18,289 --> 00:44:21,124
Left side,
thrown in front.
835
00:44:21,126 --> 00:44:23,426
And Zenon Konopka
almost knocked that in.
836
00:44:23,428 --> 00:44:25,128
Back comes Yashin.
837
00:44:25,130 --> 00:44:26,929
Yashin on a
two-on-one break.
838
00:44:26,931 --> 00:44:28,731
Yashin drops
it for Harpur.
839
00:44:28,733 --> 00:44:31,834
Harpur's attempt in
front goes off his stick.
840
00:44:31,836 --> 00:44:33,936
Yashin tracks it down to
the right wing corner.
841
00:44:33,938 --> 00:44:36,039
Yashin throws
it in front.
842
00:44:42,981 --> 00:44:44,414
Long shot
by Becker.
843
00:44:44,416 --> 00:44:46,315
That's kept out
by Colton Incze.
844
00:44:46,317 --> 00:44:48,851
- They've at least gotten
themselves into the game
845
00:44:48,853 --> 00:44:51,387
a little, Jim, which is
encouraging if you're a
846
00:44:51,389 --> 00:44:53,389
Cheetah fan
like you and Joe.
847
00:44:53,391 --> 00:44:56,059
There's Liambas.
848
00:44:56,061 --> 00:44:57,427
Liambas over
the line.
849
00:44:57,429 --> 00:45:00,129
Liambas in front -
oh! Off the goalpost.
850
00:45:00,131 --> 00:45:01,898
Oh, my!
851
00:45:12,444 --> 00:45:14,744
Come on, Joey!
Come on!
852
00:45:16,114 --> 00:45:18,247
Come on, Joey!
853
00:45:22,020 --> 00:45:24,721
He's looking good.
It's gonna be alright.
854
00:45:24,723 --> 00:45:26,789
You got confidence
in him, right?
855
00:45:26,791 --> 00:45:28,341
- Mm hm.
856
00:45:28,342 --> 00:45:29,892
So do I. And I think
the team does too.
857
00:45:29,894 --> 00:45:31,060
- Yeah.
858
00:45:31,062 --> 00:45:32,762
Look how they're
reacting around him.
859
00:45:32,764 --> 00:45:34,163
Look how
defensively
860
00:45:34,165 --> 00:45:36,733
they're playing
around him.
861
00:45:36,735 --> 00:45:38,468
- Well, he could
get a little help
862
00:45:38,470 --> 00:45:40,169
from the
fucking team too.
863
00:45:40,171 --> 00:45:41,738
Defense is
looking good.
864
00:45:41,740 --> 00:45:43,773
Maybe if the offense
picks up a little bit
865
00:45:43,775 --> 00:45:45,174
we'll be on
our way.
866
00:45:45,176 --> 00:45:48,377
I'm not worried. No,
I'm scared, shit.
867
00:45:48,379 --> 00:45:52,081
Trying to turn up ice
out of their own zone.
868
00:45:52,083 --> 00:45:54,150
Puck to center.
869
00:45:54,152 --> 00:45:55,985
Bastasin couldn't
get it deep.
870
00:45:55,987 --> 00:45:57,820
Medica now
picks it up..
871
00:45:57,822 --> 00:45:59,055
Gets it to Kyle.
872
00:45:59,057 --> 00:46:01,090
Back to the middle -
Medica with a shot!
873
00:46:01,092 --> 00:46:04,093
And that's taking the
midsection and held on
874
00:46:04,095 --> 00:46:06,829
so the Cheetahs still
looking for that goal
875
00:46:06,831 --> 00:46:09,899
that would give them some
hope to mount a comeback
876
00:46:09,901 --> 00:46:12,168
and get back
into this game.
877
00:46:16,141 --> 00:46:18,407
Well, we talked about
it off the top, Jimmy.
878
00:46:18,409 --> 00:46:21,844
You can only expect so
much from Joey Bird.
879
00:46:21,846 --> 00:46:24,447
One of the things you
have to do is to protect
880
00:46:24,449 --> 00:46:27,083
him by getting yourself
back in the game.
881
00:46:27,085 --> 00:46:29,519
Take some pressure
off your goalie.
882
00:46:32,323 --> 00:46:34,390
Back on the 21s.
883
00:46:34,392 --> 00:46:36,425
New York.
884
00:46:36,427 --> 00:46:39,862
Puck possession inside
the Cincinnati zone.
885
00:46:39,864 --> 00:46:41,464
Spun out in front,
that's knocked away
886
00:46:41,466 --> 00:46:43,499
and back come
Cincinnati,
887
00:46:43,501 --> 00:46:45,067
the Cheetahs.
888
00:46:45,069 --> 00:46:46,469
He's a little
shaky right now, but...
889
00:46:46,471 --> 00:46:48,104
You see how
he's playing?
890
00:46:48,106 --> 00:46:50,840
He's not as fancy as he
used to be, but remember,
891
00:46:50,842 --> 00:46:52,909
15 years he
hasn't played.
892
00:46:52,911 --> 00:46:54,577
And I want to
thank you personally
893
00:46:54,579 --> 00:46:58,214
because I knew the
moment I saw you
894
00:46:58,216 --> 00:47:00,049
- I was surprised
to see you -
895
00:47:00,051 --> 00:47:03,586
but if it wasn't for
you he wouldn't be here.
896
00:47:03,588 --> 00:47:05,388
I know he was
doing me a favor
897
00:47:05,390 --> 00:47:07,256
but you prompted
him to do it.
898
00:47:07,258 --> 00:47:08,457
I owe you.
899
00:47:08,459 --> 00:47:10,426
He wasn't doing
you any favors,
900
00:47:10,428 --> 00:47:12,128
you saved
his life.
901
00:47:12,130 --> 00:47:14,297
- Believe me, I didn't.
But thank you.
902
00:47:14,299 --> 00:47:17,033
Mishandled by Kyle
on the far side.
903
00:47:17,035 --> 00:47:19,435
Kyle throws it in
behind the net.
904
00:47:19,437 --> 00:47:21,437
And Luke
Gazdic with it.
905
00:47:21,439 --> 00:47:24,207
Gazdic, back
to the point.
906
00:47:24,209 --> 00:47:25,208
Harpur...
907
00:47:25,210 --> 00:47:26,342
Harpur waits.
908
00:47:26,344 --> 00:47:28,110
Harpur hooks
off his skate,
909
00:47:28,112 --> 00:47:30,546
and Gazdic's gonna have
to go back and get it.
910
00:47:30,548 --> 00:47:33,149
Time becoming
a factor.
911
00:47:33,151 --> 00:47:35,051
Back come Cincinnati
over the line.
912
00:47:35,053 --> 00:47:36,886
Two-on-two
break...
913
00:47:36,888 --> 00:47:40,089
sharp angle - and throw
it in the side of the net.
914
00:47:40,091 --> 00:47:42,024
And that's
knocked away.
915
00:47:42,026 --> 00:47:45,494
And the New York 21s
have done a great job of
916
00:47:45,496 --> 00:47:47,363
taking care of
any rebounds,
917
00:47:47,365 --> 00:47:50,066
any garbage in front
of their own goaltender.
918
00:47:50,068 --> 00:47:51,968
- Exactly what
the Cheetahs
919
00:47:51,970 --> 00:47:53,502
have to pick
up on, Jim.
920
00:47:53,504 --> 00:47:55,638
They're not doing a
good job of clearing
921
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,107
in front of the net,
although, in fairness,
922
00:47:58,109 --> 00:48:00,376
they've been better
in the second period.
923
00:48:04,883 --> 00:48:07,049
Joey, go!
924
00:48:07,051 --> 00:48:10,486
Yeah!
925
00:48:10,488 --> 00:48:11,988
Here they
come again.
926
00:48:11,990 --> 00:48:14,190
Konopka's open in
front, here's the pass,
927
00:48:14,192 --> 00:48:16,225
redirected and that
goes just past the
928
00:48:16,227 --> 00:48:19,528
outstretched pad of
Joey Bird and wide.
929
00:48:19,530 --> 00:48:21,163
Back comes
Gasdic.
930
00:48:21,165 --> 00:48:22,398
Here come
the Cheetahs.
931
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:24,267
Gasdic over the
line - shoots!
932
00:48:24,269 --> 00:48:26,502
And that's
stopped.
933
00:48:26,504 --> 00:48:31,040
So the lead that the
Cincinnati Cheetahs
934
00:48:31,042 --> 00:48:34,343
are trying to
cut into remains,
935
00:48:34,345 --> 00:48:37,079
as Cincinnati looking
for their first goal.
936
00:48:37,081 --> 00:48:39,215
So all of a sudden
you go from Joey Bird
937
00:48:39,217 --> 00:48:41,651
being the story early
on giving up a couple..
938
00:48:41,653 --> 00:48:44,654
Now the story is the
Cincinnati Cheetahs
939
00:48:44,656 --> 00:48:47,456
unable to find themselves
back in this game.
940
00:48:52,130 --> 00:48:53,996
Paid a fortune
for that guy.
941
00:48:53,998 --> 00:48:55,564
With a little
traffic up front
942
00:48:55,566 --> 00:48:57,667
we could take
some more shots!
943
00:48:59,304 --> 00:49:01,237
Well, they're starting to
resemble the Cincinnati
944
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,372
Cheetahs team that
made it this far.
945
00:49:03,374 --> 00:49:06,642
- Yeah, they're showing
something in the second
946
00:49:06,644 --> 00:49:09,679
that they certainly
didn't in the first, Joe.
947
00:49:09,681 --> 00:49:12,348
- Another shot.
948
00:49:12,350 --> 00:49:14,283
Face-off gonna
be to the left.
949
00:49:14,285 --> 00:49:15,718
So game seven,
950
00:49:15,720 --> 00:49:18,421
you can feel the tension
in this building.
951
00:49:18,423 --> 00:49:20,489
Go Joe!
Eat em up!
952
00:49:20,491 --> 00:49:22,291
Eat 'em up, Joe!
953
00:49:22,293 --> 00:49:24,460
They know if New
York gets another one
954
00:49:24,462 --> 00:49:26,329
back the other way
this game is done.
955
00:49:26,331 --> 00:49:28,331
Cincinnati needs
something good to happen,
956
00:49:28,333 --> 00:49:30,466
whether it's from
the hockey gods or
957
00:49:30,468 --> 00:49:32,969
whether it's from one
of their skilled players.
958
00:49:32,971 --> 00:49:35,204
Behind the net Yashin
now tries to get it.
959
00:49:35,206 --> 00:49:36,973
Picked off by
Ryan Wells,
960
00:49:36,975 --> 00:49:38,975
played out
the right side.
961
00:49:38,977 --> 00:49:41,177
Over the line..
962
00:49:41,179 --> 00:49:42,311
Here come
New York.
963
00:49:42,313 --> 00:49:44,580
Long shot - Oh,
that's off the goalpost!
964
00:49:44,582 --> 00:49:46,716
Oh, my.
965
00:49:46,718 --> 00:49:49,318
That's three that
have found their way
966
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:53,389
past Joey Bird and
off the goalpost.
967
00:49:53,391 --> 00:49:55,057
Yashin now.
968
00:49:55,059 --> 00:49:56,325
For the Cheetahs.
969
00:49:56,327 --> 00:49:58,327
Yashin circles in
the front of the net.
970
00:49:58,329 --> 00:50:00,229
Spins back towards
the left wing board.
971
00:50:00,231 --> 00:50:01,497
Yashin in
the corner.
972
00:50:01,499 --> 00:50:04,233
Back in front and
Yashin can't handle that.
973
00:50:04,235 --> 00:50:07,303
And New York
once again will
974
00:50:07,305 --> 00:50:10,773
clear the puck out
of their own zone.
975
00:50:10,775 --> 00:50:12,708
Liambas gets
to center.
976
00:50:12,710 --> 00:50:16,345
Offense! Come
on, offense!
977
00:50:16,347 --> 00:50:20,383
One on three but
Liambas holds onto it.
978
00:50:20,385 --> 00:50:22,385
Gets into the
slot, looks back,
979
00:50:22,387 --> 00:50:25,254
throws it across
to Chris Harpur.
980
00:50:25,256 --> 00:50:28,090
Alright, get back,
defense! Get back!
981
00:50:28,092 --> 00:50:30,226
Help him out!
982
00:50:30,228 --> 00:50:34,463
Shit! He's
got no help!
983
00:50:34,465 --> 00:50:36,432
Harpur with it.
984
00:50:36,434 --> 00:50:43,239
Time becoming a factor
here as the Cincinnati
985
00:50:43,241 --> 00:50:46,308
Cheetahs find themselves
in some trouble.
986
00:50:46,310 --> 00:50:50,579
And the story of the
game was Joey Bird.
987
00:50:50,581 --> 00:50:52,481
Could he hold
them in it?
988
00:50:52,483 --> 00:50:55,551
He has since the 21s
took the early lead.
989
00:50:55,553 --> 00:50:58,254
Fuck! Fuck!
990
00:50:58,256 --> 00:50:59,755
Well, he's
certainly done
991
00:50:59,757 --> 00:51:03,125
as well if not
better than the
992
00:51:03,127 --> 00:51:05,561
general consensus
would have expected.
993
00:51:05,563 --> 00:51:07,530
Joey Bird has been
a significant part
994
00:51:07,532 --> 00:51:09,131
of this game.
995
00:51:09,133 --> 00:51:11,367
As we pointed out,
he can't score
996
00:51:11,369 --> 00:51:13,369
so the
game's over.
997
00:51:13,371 --> 00:51:16,172
If the Cheetahs don't
decide to play more like
998
00:51:16,174 --> 00:51:18,541
a team and take a
facsimile from the
999
00:51:18,543 --> 00:51:21,243
New York 21s..
They're dead meat!
1000
00:51:21,245 --> 00:51:24,513
- Well, right now this has
turned into a nice story.
1001
00:51:24,515 --> 00:51:27,650
But if you want this to
be the thing that legends
1002
00:51:27,652 --> 00:51:30,319
are made of, there
has to be a comeback.
1003
00:51:30,321 --> 00:51:32,254
Joey Bird has
been solid
1004
00:51:32,256 --> 00:51:34,623
since they fell down
early in this game.
1005
00:51:34,625 --> 00:51:37,093
The crowd was on him,
he responded well
1006
00:51:37,095 --> 00:51:39,562
and the team responded
well around him.
1007
00:51:39,564 --> 00:51:41,564
But now is the time
for them to find a way
1008
00:51:41,566 --> 00:51:43,299
to get back
into this game.
1009
00:51:43,301 --> 00:51:45,701
And unfortunately
for Joey Bird,
1010
00:51:45,703 --> 00:51:47,670
whether you think
it's right or wrong,
1011
00:51:47,672 --> 00:51:50,306
he's gotta be the story
of the third period.
1012
00:51:50,308 --> 00:51:52,308
He's gotta be
absolutely perfect.
1013
00:51:52,310 --> 00:51:54,343
- Well, he can't let
any more goals in.
1014
00:51:54,345 --> 00:51:56,112
That's a pressure
that nobody needs, Jim.
1015
00:51:56,114 --> 00:51:57,847
But that's a pressure
that comes with a team
1016
00:51:57,849 --> 00:52:00,149
that didn't
come to play.
1017
00:52:02,753 --> 00:52:04,186
For the Cheetahs,
1018
00:52:04,188 --> 00:52:06,655
Yashin circles in
the front of the net.
1019
00:52:06,657 --> 00:52:08,491
There's Alexei
Yashin over the line -
1020
00:52:08,493 --> 00:52:10,359
rebound - scores!
1021
00:52:16,801 --> 00:52:21,203
Yashin, over the line
right off the face-off.
1022
00:52:21,205 --> 00:52:23,272
Walks in, first
shot is stopped.
1023
00:52:23,274 --> 00:52:25,241
Yashin
follows it up
1024
00:52:25,243 --> 00:52:29,211
and Yashin slips
it into the goal.
1025
00:52:29,213 --> 00:52:31,714
Is this the start of
something special
1026
00:52:31,716 --> 00:52:34,216
for the Cincinnati
Cheetahs?
1027
00:52:34,218 --> 00:52:35,618
- I'm looking
down the tunnel.
1028
00:52:35,620 --> 00:52:37,720
I see a flicker of
light there, Jim.
1029
00:52:37,722 --> 00:52:39,722
It's pretty
faint, I must say.
1030
00:52:39,724 --> 00:52:42,625
- What's the
old saying:
1031
00:52:42,627 --> 00:52:45,327
is it a train or
is it daylight?
1032
00:52:45,329 --> 00:52:47,463
And we knew at the
start of this period
1033
00:52:47,465 --> 00:52:49,732
for them to get
back into this game,
1034
00:52:49,734 --> 00:52:53,235
they're gonna have to
start taking some chances.
1035
00:52:53,237 --> 00:52:54,803
The defense are
gonna have to pinch,
1036
00:52:54,805 --> 00:52:56,639
forwards might
have to cheat a bit
1037
00:52:56,641 --> 00:52:58,207
leaving the zone.
1038
00:52:58,209 --> 00:53:00,876
It's gonna create scoring
chances at one end
1039
00:53:00,878 --> 00:53:03,946
but we could see,
because of that,
1040
00:53:03,948 --> 00:53:07,249
teams trading scoring
chances at both ends.
1041
00:53:17,495 --> 00:53:18,928
I can tell you
this, Jimmy,
1042
00:53:18,930 --> 00:53:20,496
without any
equivocation:
1043
00:53:20,498 --> 00:53:21,830
Next goal wins.
1044
00:53:21,832 --> 00:53:23,933
That's all I'm
telling you.
1045
00:53:30,374 --> 00:53:32,541
Back in front and
that's fired just wide.
1046
00:53:32,543 --> 00:53:34,843
Yashin can't get
into the corner.
1047
00:53:34,845 --> 00:53:36,412
Back come
the 21s.
1048
00:53:36,414 --> 00:53:38,314
Liambas throws it
to center but Yashin
1049
00:53:38,316 --> 00:53:41,350
back to Harpur, back
in over the other way.
1050
00:53:41,352 --> 00:53:43,252
Harpur in
front - shot!
1051
00:53:43,254 --> 00:53:44,920
And that's
kicked away.
1052
00:53:56,834 --> 00:53:59,235
The defense around
him isn't as strong
1053
00:53:59,237 --> 00:54:01,270
as I would hope,
but they're not bad.
1054
00:54:01,272 --> 00:54:02,771
They seem to be
coming together.
1055
00:54:02,773 --> 00:54:04,240
How do you feel?
1056
00:54:04,242 --> 00:54:05,307
- I feel great.
1057
00:54:05,309 --> 00:54:06,609
Are you
proud of him?
1058
00:54:06,611 --> 00:54:07,810
- Yeah.
1059
00:54:07,811 --> 00:54:09,010
15 years, honey.
It's been a long time.
1060
00:54:09,013 --> 00:54:12,781
You have the confidence?
You feel the way I do?
1061
00:54:12,783 --> 00:54:14,316
- Shut up.
1062
00:54:14,318 --> 00:54:16,352
We're gonna see
how this plays out.
1063
00:54:16,354 --> 00:54:19,922
Is this gonna be decided
by one final bounce?
1064
00:54:19,924 --> 00:54:23,425
Another goalpost,
as Joey Bird has had
1065
00:54:23,427 --> 00:54:25,894
a few of them to
keep him in this game.
1066
00:54:25,896 --> 00:54:27,997
Back into the slot -
shot off his skate.
1067
00:54:27,999 --> 00:54:32,568
Now Kyle in the zone and
he turns the puck over.
1068
00:54:32,570 --> 00:54:34,837
Cheetahs again!
1069
00:54:34,839 --> 00:54:38,874
There's Alexei Yashin,
had trouble handling it..
1070
00:54:38,876 --> 00:54:40,609
Kept in again.
1071
00:54:40,611 --> 00:54:42,678
Harpur.. Picked
up by Yashin,
1072
00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:44,713
tries to flip it out,
knocked back down.
1073
00:54:44,715 --> 00:54:48,784
Konopka on
the far side.
1074
00:54:48,786 --> 00:54:50,586
Back come
the Cheetahs.
1075
00:54:50,588 --> 00:54:52,054
Breakaway pass,
picked off,
1076
00:54:52,056 --> 00:54:53,956
turned back
the other way.
1077
00:54:53,958 --> 00:54:55,291
New York.
1078
00:54:55,293 --> 00:54:56,925
Dump it deep.
1079
00:54:56,927 --> 00:55:00,029
They're just trying to kill
time off this clock now.
1080
00:55:04,535 --> 00:55:06,568
We said at the very
start of this game
1081
00:55:06,570 --> 00:55:09,305
that this was a game
that was gonna be
1082
00:55:09,307 --> 00:55:11,740
talked about for
years to go.
1083
00:55:16,047 --> 00:55:17,946
So again,
come back.
1084
00:55:17,948 --> 00:55:21,350
Alexei Yashin.
1085
00:55:21,352 --> 00:55:23,752
Yashin back to center,
throws it up the middle.
1086
00:55:23,754 --> 00:55:25,387
Here comes Gasdic.
1087
00:55:25,389 --> 00:55:26,088
Two on 0.
1088
00:55:26,090 --> 00:55:28,057
Gasdic gets
it - oh!
1089
00:55:28,059 --> 00:55:29,591
What a great
opportunity for
1090
00:55:29,593 --> 00:55:33,529
Gasdic stolen
with a blocker save.
1091
00:55:33,531 --> 00:55:35,631
Gasdic keeps
it deep.
1092
00:55:35,633 --> 00:55:36,932
Yashin goes to the
front of the net.
1093
00:55:36,934 --> 00:55:39,001
Yashin makes a
pass - scores!
1094
00:55:39,003 --> 00:55:42,338
Gasdic has
scored again!
1095
00:55:42,340 --> 00:55:46,975
This game
is tied!
1096
00:55:46,977 --> 00:55:52,081
Has tied this game.
1097
00:55:56,487 --> 00:55:57,920
- I mean, that was
a beautiful goal.
1098
00:55:57,922 --> 00:55:59,955
Top cheese.
1099
00:56:02,493 --> 00:56:06,028
Here we go again.
1100
00:56:06,030 --> 00:56:09,431
It's Harpur
over the line
1101
00:56:09,433 --> 00:56:11,734
and Harpur spins into
the left wing boards.
1102
00:56:11,736 --> 00:56:13,569
Throws it way out in
front and it bounces!
1103
00:56:13,571 --> 00:56:16,739
Passed to Medica
on the far side.
1104
00:56:16,741 --> 00:56:19,508
Thrown back
to the point.
1105
00:56:19,510 --> 00:56:22,711
Bastasin throws it into
the middle of the ice
1106
00:56:22,713 --> 00:56:24,613
and another
shot by Medica.
1107
00:56:24,615 --> 00:56:27,015
That was harmless
and swallowed up.
1108
00:56:27,017 --> 00:56:29,118
And the face-off
is gonna be
1109
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:34,823
to the right of the
New York 21's goal.
1110
00:56:34,825 --> 00:56:39,995
Cincinnati Cheetahs
back in this game.
1111
00:56:39,997 --> 00:56:43,031
They looked like they
were absolutely done
1112
00:56:43,033 --> 00:56:45,701
in the early goings
of this hockey game.
1113
00:56:45,703 --> 00:56:47,503
- This is really one of
the greatest comebacks
1114
00:56:47,505 --> 00:56:48,871
I can remember.
1115
00:56:48,873 --> 00:56:50,973
Harpur - Harpur
throws it in front.
1116
00:56:50,975 --> 00:56:52,141
Kyle - shot
1117
00:56:52,143 --> 00:56:54,643
and it's kicked away
with a right pad.
1118
00:56:54,645 --> 00:56:55,978
Back into the slot.
1119
00:56:55,980 --> 00:56:57,513
Right in front.
1120
00:56:57,515 --> 00:56:59,047
Shot once,
rebound..
1121
00:56:59,049 --> 00:57:01,784
And Harpur again with
a great opportunity
1122
00:57:01,786 --> 00:57:03,419
but is stopped
in close.
1123
00:57:03,421 --> 00:57:04,820
Back come
New York.
1124
00:57:04,822 --> 00:57:07,656
21s get it to center,
stolen by Yashin.
1125
00:57:07,658 --> 00:57:10,559
Yashin, thrown to
the right side.
1126
00:57:10,561 --> 00:57:13,462
Eric Becker
after it.
1127
00:57:13,464 --> 00:57:14,963
Becker behind
the net.
1128
00:57:14,965 --> 00:57:16,999
Becker tries to
throw it in front -
1129
00:57:17,001 --> 00:57:22,104
shot by Justin Kyle -
off his stick and wide.
1130
00:57:22,106 --> 00:57:24,907
That almost found
the back of the net.
1131
00:57:24,909 --> 00:57:28,710
Come on, take a
shot! Take a shot!
1132
00:57:32,216 --> 00:57:33,749
Back come
the Cheetahs.
1133
00:57:33,751 --> 00:57:35,184
Alexei Yashin.
1134
00:57:35,186 --> 00:57:36,518
Yashin to center.
1135
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:37,986
Yashin's got
Harpur with him.
1136
00:57:37,988 --> 00:57:40,489
Kyle trailing...
oh! And Yashin..
1137
00:57:40,491 --> 00:57:42,024
Off the left pad.
1138
00:57:42,026 --> 00:57:44,026
This game is
getting late.
1139
00:57:44,028 --> 00:57:46,695
Come on, ref!
What about that?
1140
00:57:46,697 --> 00:57:49,731
Hey, ref! Open
your eyes, will ya?
1141
00:57:49,733 --> 00:57:52,701
Come on, you're
missing a good game!
1142
00:57:52,703 --> 00:57:54,169
We've said it
a few times.
1143
00:57:54,171 --> 00:57:56,171
The next goal
could be a big one.
1144
00:57:56,173 --> 00:57:57,840
Alexei Yashin
wants to make sure
1145
00:57:57,842 --> 00:57:59,808
it's off his
stick again.
1146
00:57:59,810 --> 00:58:02,177
Here's Becker
in the corner.
1147
00:58:02,179 --> 00:58:04,079
Yashin throws
it in front.
1148
00:58:04,081 --> 00:58:06,915
Kyle in the
far corner,
1149
00:58:06,917 --> 00:58:08,550
they throw it
to the point.
1150
00:58:08,552 --> 00:58:10,152
It's knocked down.
1151
00:58:10,154 --> 00:58:11,753
Back come
New York.
1152
00:58:11,755 --> 00:58:12,955
Here's a
two on 0 -
1153
00:58:12,957 --> 00:58:15,557
a two on 0 for
the New York 21s.
1154
00:58:15,559 --> 00:58:17,125
Over to the
right - shot!
1155
00:58:17,127 --> 00:58:19,161
Bird might have got
a piece of that.
1156
00:58:19,163 --> 00:58:20,696
- Yeah, for sure.
1157
00:58:20,698 --> 00:58:22,998
New York, another
odd man rush
1158
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,801
and Joey Bird
turns 'em away.
1159
00:58:30,174 --> 00:58:31,640
Come on, guys!
1160
00:58:31,642 --> 00:58:33,876
Change, change, change!
1161
00:58:33,878 --> 00:58:36,912
Cheetahs have not
led in this game.
1162
00:58:36,914 --> 00:58:39,515
Puck thrown
to center.
1163
00:58:39,517 --> 00:58:42,751
McLean can't handle
it. It bounces.
1164
00:58:42,753 --> 00:58:44,553
Johnson falls.
1165
00:58:44,555 --> 00:58:46,288
Joey, fly high!
1166
00:58:46,290 --> 00:58:48,924
Picked up, it is
a two-on-0 break
1167
00:58:48,926 --> 00:58:50,058
the other way.
1168
00:58:50,060 --> 00:58:51,760
There's a shot
at Joey Bird.
1169
00:58:51,762 --> 00:58:53,295
Bird got a
piece of it.
1170
00:58:53,297 --> 00:58:57,933
Oh, baby! Joey Bird
just gets his stick on it
1171
00:58:57,935 --> 00:59:01,003
or this game is
back in the hands
1172
00:59:01,005 --> 00:59:03,238
of the New
York 21s.
1173
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:06,275
Bird with perhaps his
best stop of the night.
1174
00:59:06,277 --> 00:59:08,210
- Joey Bird's kept
them in the game
1175
00:59:08,212 --> 00:59:10,078
the last 30
seconds, Jimmy.
1176
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:13,148
Back come
Cincinnati.
1177
00:59:13,150 --> 00:59:24,893
¶
1178
00:59:24,895 --> 00:59:25,827
Yashin..
1179
00:59:25,829 --> 00:59:28,163
Yashin.. Shot!
Scores!
1180
00:59:30,100 --> 00:59:34,269
Score - Alexei Yashin
down the right wing.
1181
00:59:37,341 --> 00:59:39,708
Oh, what a
night he's had!
1182
00:59:39,710 --> 00:59:42,844
Bird at one end,
Yashin at the other.
1183
00:59:42,846 --> 00:59:46,315
- Isn't it funny, Jimmy,
how they make a big save
1184
00:59:46,317 --> 00:59:49,718
at the far end, they come
down and score to tie.
1185
00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:52,588
Joey Bird is doing
what he has to do:
1186
00:59:52,590 --> 00:59:55,357
keep his team in the
game by making saves
1187
00:59:55,359 --> 00:59:57,759
and hope that
Yashin and the crew
1188
00:59:57,761 --> 00:59:59,962
can continue
to put them in.
1189
00:59:59,964 --> 01:00:02,264
I think the amazing
thing for game seven
1190
01:00:02,266 --> 01:00:04,266
is how wide open
things have turned
1191
01:00:04,268 --> 01:00:05,934
here in the
third period.
1192
01:00:05,936 --> 01:00:09,037
- Yeah, it's redefined
game seven, I think, Jim.
1193
01:00:09,039 --> 01:00:11,340
- The Cheetahs had a
completely changed
1194
01:00:11,342 --> 01:00:12,874
method of play.
1195
01:00:12,876 --> 01:00:14,977
They were just
dead in the water.
1196
01:00:14,979 --> 01:00:17,112
- Yeah, I think Yashin
picked them up
1197
01:00:17,114 --> 01:00:19,047
by the scruff of
the neck, Joe,
1198
01:00:19,049 --> 01:00:20,983
and showed them
what had to be done.
1199
01:00:20,985 --> 01:00:22,985
You lead
by example.
1200
01:00:22,987 --> 01:00:25,220
- What does New
York have left?
1201
01:00:25,222 --> 01:00:28,123
One last chance as we
get into the final minute.
1202
01:00:28,125 --> 01:00:29,791
Empty net.
1203
01:00:29,793 --> 01:00:31,927
Cincinnati.
1204
01:00:31,929 --> 01:00:34,730
Cheetahs can't
do anything.
1205
01:00:34,732 --> 01:00:36,164
New York
dumps it in.
1206
01:00:36,166 --> 01:00:38,233
They got the
extra man on the ice.
1207
01:00:38,235 --> 01:00:40,402
Can Bird hold
the fort?
1208
01:00:40,404 --> 01:00:42,070
Thrown in front..
1209
01:00:42,072 --> 01:00:43,305
And that's
knocked away.
1210
01:00:43,307 --> 01:00:45,007
Harpur on
the far side.
1211
01:00:45,009 --> 01:00:46,308
Harpur holding.
1212
01:00:46,310 --> 01:00:48,877
Harpur trying to get it
to the front of the net.
1213
01:00:48,879 --> 01:00:51,046
Harpur in behind the
goal, thrown in front,
1214
01:00:51,048 --> 01:00:52,180
picked off.
1215
01:00:52,182 --> 01:00:56,018
Back come
Cincinnati to center.
1216
01:00:56,020 --> 01:00:58,420
They're just gonna
play it inside the line.
1217
01:00:58,422 --> 01:01:00,722
Wells with it.
1218
01:01:00,724 --> 01:01:02,958
Wells' time
running out.
1219
01:01:07,231 --> 01:01:09,064
Here's Curran.
1220
01:01:09,065 --> 01:01:10,898
Curran on the right
wing side to Liambas.
1221
01:01:25,015 --> 01:01:27,983
Wells with a shot -
the shot is blocked.
1222
01:01:27,985 --> 01:01:29,451
And they've
done it!
1223
01:01:29,453 --> 01:01:31,720
They've done it!
They've done it!
1224
01:01:31,722 --> 01:01:38,260
The Cincinnati Cheetahs
with Joey Bird in goal.
1225
01:01:40,264 --> 01:01:42,330
- What an accomplishment
for what that man's
1226
01:01:42,332 --> 01:01:45,033
been through and
what he's done tonight.
1227
01:02:07,324 --> 01:02:11,493
¶ I wonder why
sometimes I cry ¶
1228
01:02:11,495 --> 01:02:15,931
¶ I wonder why
some day I'll die ¶
1229
01:02:15,933 --> 01:02:21,069
¶ I wonder why I
just can't fly ¶
1230
01:02:21,071 --> 01:02:24,406
¶ I wonder
all the time ¶
1231
01:02:24,408 --> 01:02:28,810
¶ I wonder why I
just can't see ¶
1232
01:02:28,812 --> 01:02:32,914
¶ I wonder why
you just left me ¶
1233
01:02:32,916 --> 01:02:35,050
Joey, I'm so
proud of you.
1234
01:02:35,052 --> 01:02:38,353
¶ Am I the one
that only sees ¶
1235
01:02:38,355 --> 01:02:41,223
¶ I wonder ¶
1236
01:02:45,095 --> 01:02:47,162
Tonight he had the
post as his friend,
1237
01:02:47,164 --> 01:02:48,797
there was
no question.
1238
01:02:48,799 --> 01:02:52,100
But he was there at the
most important times.
1239
01:02:52,102 --> 01:02:53,802
Before the winning
goal was scored
1240
01:02:53,804 --> 01:02:56,037
he made a superb save
and down they came..
1241
01:02:56,039 --> 01:02:58,206
The Cheetahs came down
to score the winner.
1242
01:02:58,208 --> 01:03:00,408
- What did we expect
out of Lou Brown?
1243
01:03:00,410 --> 01:03:02,444
A decision that was going
to win a championship.
1244
01:03:02,446 --> 01:03:05,180
Naysayers are not
coming into this game.
1245
01:03:05,182 --> 01:03:08,416
He proved that he
made the right one.
1246
01:03:18,028 --> 01:03:20,929
How'd you
manage to do that?
1247
01:03:20,931 --> 01:03:22,898
That was
a winner.
1248
01:03:24,434 --> 01:03:26,168
Thank you, guys.
1249
01:03:26,170 --> 01:03:27,903
Thank you
very much.
1250
01:03:27,905 --> 01:03:29,171
- Congratulations.
1251
01:03:29,173 --> 01:03:31,006
- Thank you.
1252
01:03:31,008 --> 01:03:41,082
¶
1253
01:03:41,084 --> 01:03:51,126
¶
1254
01:03:51,128 --> 01:04:02,904
¶
1255
01:04:02,906 --> 01:04:05,473
Ladies and gentlemen,
boys and girls..
1256
01:04:05,475 --> 01:04:09,978
Your champions the
Cincinnati Cheetahs!
1257
01:04:20,290 --> 01:04:21,623
Where's Joey?
1258
01:04:21,625 --> 01:04:24,059
- Joey's with
his dad.
1259
01:04:24,061 --> 01:04:29,264
¶ I wonder ¶
1260
01:04:29,266 --> 01:04:34,903
¶ do you know
that I love you ¶
1261
01:04:34,905 --> 01:04:39,040
¶ I wonder if
you can see ¶
1262
01:04:39,042 --> 01:04:44,512
I'm so sorry I
doubted you.
1263
01:04:44,514 --> 01:04:51,620
¶ I'm the one for you and
you're the one for me ¶
1264
01:04:51,622 --> 01:04:53,622
Thank you for giving
me a chance, Mr. Brown.
1265
01:04:53,624 --> 01:04:55,423
I never doubted
you for a minute
1266
01:04:55,425 --> 01:04:57,125
and I want to thank
you and Joanne
1267
01:04:57,127 --> 01:04:59,261
for doing me a favor
I'll never forget.
1268
01:04:59,263 --> 01:05:01,162
38 years and
you did it.
1269
01:05:01,164 --> 01:05:02,264
- Thank you.
1270
01:05:02,266 --> 01:05:05,367
Greatest hockey
game I ever saw, kid.
1271
01:05:05,369 --> 01:05:06,635
- Thank you.
1272
01:05:06,637 --> 01:05:08,169
- 20 more years.
1273
01:05:08,171 --> 01:05:11,406
Let me get out and we'll
go eat something. Okay?
1274
01:05:19,549 --> 01:05:22,951
¶ I wonder if that's
all you'll see ¶
1275
01:05:22,953 --> 01:05:28,924
¶ I wonder
1276
01:05:28,926 --> 01:05:31,426
¶ I wonder ¶
1277
01:05:31,428 --> 01:05:35,297
¶ if all of it
drowned in the sea ¶
1278
01:05:35,299 --> 01:05:40,936
¶ I wonder if
you love me ¶
1279
01:05:40,938 --> 01:05:49,177
Joey Bird will
fly high again!
1280
01:05:49,179 --> 01:05:56,284
¶ We danced
nice and slow ¶
1281
01:05:56,286 --> 01:06:00,622
¶ I twirled you
around my soul ¶
1282
01:06:00,624 --> 01:06:04,159
¶ we drank so
much gin ¶
1283
01:06:04,161 --> 01:06:08,730
¶ that it turned
into an ugly sin ¶
1284
01:06:08,732 --> 01:06:13,134
¶ sometimes I
wonder why ¶
1285
01:06:13,136 --> 01:06:17,205
¶ if you love
you must cry ¶
1286
01:06:17,207 --> 01:06:20,575
¶ if you love
it must die ¶
1287
01:06:20,577 --> 01:06:25,680
¶ I'll never
know why ¶
1288
01:06:25,682 --> 01:06:33,555
¶ here we are together
for the first time ¶
1289
01:06:33,557 --> 01:06:35,657
¶ please, my love ¶
1290
01:06:35,659 --> 01:06:42,163
¶ don't turn it into
a heartless crime ¶
1291
01:06:42,165 --> 01:06:46,201
¶ we danced all
night long ¶
1292
01:06:46,203 --> 01:06:50,338
¶ we made love
all night long ¶
1293
01:06:50,340 --> 01:06:53,475
¶ for a moment
you made me feel ¶
1294
01:06:53,477 --> 01:06:58,580
¶ that I belong ¶
1295
01:06:58,582 --> 01:07:02,717
¶ here we are
in the dark ¶
1296
01:07:02,719 --> 01:07:07,022
¶ sitting in
the park ¶
1297
01:07:07,024 --> 01:07:15,196
¶ wondering if this ecstasy
will last an eternity ¶
1298
01:07:15,198 --> 01:07:23,271
¶ here we are together
for the first time ¶
1299

01:07:31,581 --> 01:07:35,617
¶ we danced all
night long ¶
1302
01:07:35,619 --> 01:07:40,121
¶ is this where
I belong? ¶
1303
01:07:40,123 --> 01:07:47,128
¶ We danced all
night long ¶
1304
01:07:47,130 --> 01:07:56,704

¶ we danced all night long

1310
01:08:46,356 --> 01:08:54,362
¶ yeaaah ¶
1311
01:08:54,364 --> 01:08:58,466
¶ we danced all
night long ¶
1312
01:08:58,468 --> 01:09:02,704
¶ is this where
I belong? ¶
1313
01:09:02,706 --> 01:09:07,609
¶ Or is this just
another song? ¶
1314
01:09:07,611 --> 01:09:10,912
¶ We danced
all night long ¶
1315
01:09:10,914 --> 01:09:14,816
¶ we danced all
night long ¶
1316
01:09:14,818 --> 01:09:19,220
¶ is this just
another cheap song? ¶
1317
01:09:19,222 --> 01:09:22,290
¶ We danced all
night long ¶
1318
01:09:22,292 --> 01:09:24,726
¶ all night
all night ¶
1319
01:09:24,728 --> 01:09:26,628
I've been involved
with myself
1320
01:09:26,630 --> 01:09:28,496
for such a
long time
1321
01:09:28,498 --> 01:09:31,666
and I felt like the whole
world revolved around me
1322
01:09:31,668 --> 01:09:34,669
I know it sounds
egotistical and
1323
01:09:34,671 --> 01:09:38,206
narcissistic but that's
all that I've always
1324
01:09:38,208 --> 01:09:39,908
wanted to see
1325
01:09:39,910 --> 01:09:41,743
because you
know what?
1326
01:09:41,745 --> 01:09:44,512
I've had to get along
with me and I'm the guy
1327
01:09:44,514 --> 01:09:46,314
when I wake up
in the morning
1328
01:09:46,316 --> 01:09:49,617
I gotta deal with
myself all day.
1329
01:09:49,619 --> 01:09:52,754
Life.. What is it?
1330
01:09:52,756 --> 01:09:54,455
What is the
meaning of life?
1331
01:09:54,457 --> 01:09:56,958
Is that profound or
is that a cliche?
1332
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:58,760
Is that something
in a drink
1333
01:09:58,762 --> 01:10:00,695
with a little
umbrella?
1334
01:10:00,697 --> 01:10:02,397
'Cause I don't
understand it.
1335
01:10:02,399 --> 01:10:03,865
Maybe I'm not
that smart.
1336
01:10:03,867 --> 01:10:07,502
Maybe I didn't see
it on CNN or CNBC.
1337
01:10:12,943 --> 01:10:24,552
¶ Why have I become
frozen in my own cocoon? ¶
1338
01:10:24,554 --> 01:10:30,959
¶ What do I believe
it means for me ¶
1339
01:10:30,961 --> 01:10:36,664
¶ to be a
better soul? ¶
1340
01:10:36,666 --> 01:10:48,343
¶ Please help me
see more than me ¶
1341
01:10:48,345 --> 01:10:59,654
¶ please help me be the
one you want me to be ¶
1342
01:10:59,656 --> 01:11:02,290
everyone in the world
walks around all day
1343
01:11:02,292 --> 01:11:05,293
staring at their smart
phone which is really
1344
01:11:05,295 --> 01:11:08,963
some fucked up shit
because it makes no sense
1345
01:11:08,965 --> 01:11:11,666
'cause the more you look
at your smart phone
1346
01:11:11,668 --> 01:11:15,436
you seem to get more
stupider, more dumber,
1347
01:11:15,438 --> 01:11:18,973
and more lonely.
1348
01:11:18,975 --> 01:11:24,345
There's no such thing
as an app that's gonna
1349
01:11:24,347 --> 01:11:30,318
grab you and make you
understand what it means
1350
01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:32,887
to have that
precious moment
1351
01:11:32,889 --> 01:11:38,426
where you're alive.
1352
01:11:38,428 --> 01:11:40,395
But you got
no choice.
1353
01:11:40,397 --> 01:11:47,035
You get seduced by
your own stupidity.
1354
01:11:47,037 --> 01:11:53,074
You get seduced by your
own needs because
1355
01:11:53,076 --> 01:11:58,379
you believe you are the
center of the universe.
1356
01:11:58,381 --> 01:12:03,718
You're hypnotized
by your own shit.
1357
01:12:03,720 --> 01:12:06,754
You're hypnotized
by everything
1358
01:12:06,756 --> 01:12:09,390
that you
need to be.
1359
01:12:09,392 --> 01:12:11,359
But you don't
understand.
1360
01:12:11,361 --> 01:12:13,628
There's a positive
and a negative.
1361
01:12:13,630 --> 01:12:16,731
And without those
two terminals
1362
01:12:16,733 --> 01:12:19,467
there is no energy.
1363
01:12:19,469 --> 01:12:26,874
I want to make
you understand
1364
01:12:26,876 --> 01:12:32,347
that you're walking in
a shroud of darkness.
1365
01:12:32,349 --> 01:12:35,750
I want you
to understand.
1366
01:12:35,752 --> 01:12:47,128
Can I see more
than I could be?
1367
01:12:47,130 --> 01:12:58,873
Can I be the one
you want me to be?
1368
01:12:58,875 --> 01:13:05,513
¶
1369
01:13:05,515 --> 01:13:07,648
I woke up
Saturday morning
1370
01:13:07,650 --> 01:13:11,552
to the sounds
that I know
1371
01:13:11,554 --> 01:13:18,426
outside my window some
kids playing in the snow
1372
01:13:18,428 --> 01:13:21,763
a homemade net
and a tennis ball
1373
01:13:21,765 --> 01:13:25,066
is all they
need to play
1374
01:13:25,068 --> 01:13:31,639
the only game I'm
gonna see today
1375
01:13:31,641 --> 01:13:36,611
'cause all the big
rinks have gone dry
1376
01:13:36,613 --> 01:13:40,148
and we're all
left wondering why
1377
01:13:40,150 --> 01:13:43,985
there's no one
left to cheer for
1378
01:13:43,987 --> 01:13:47,522
there's no one
there to hear us
1379
01:13:47,524 --> 01:13:53,528
when we're
shouting go team go
1380
01:13:53,530 --> 01:13:57,498
we used to cheer for
Wendel or Lindros
1381
01:13:57,500 --> 01:13:59,801
and Lemieux
1382
01:13:59,803 --> 01:14:07,508
Lafleur, Messier
and the Great One too
1383
01:14:07,510 --> 01:14:10,978
and now we cheer
for Tucker, Iginla,
1384
01:14:10,980 --> 01:14:16,984
Roberts
and Balfour
1385
01:14:16,986 --> 01:14:20,922
and Coach's
Corner on the CBC
1386
01:14:20,924 --> 01:14:25,092
now all the big
rinks have gone dry
1387
01:14:25,094 --> 01:14:29,096
and we're left
to wonder why
1388
01:14:29,098 --> 01:14:32,900
there's no one
left to cheer for
1389
01:14:32,902 --> 01:14:36,070
there's no one
there to hear us
1390
01:14:36,072 --> 01:14:46,147
when we're shouting
go team go
1391
01:14:46,149 --> 01:14:51,686
when we're shouting
go team go
1392
01:14:51,688 --> 01:15:01,762
¶
1393
01:15:01,764 --> 01:15:10,738
¶
1394
01:15:10,740 --> 01:15:17,078
it's Saturday night and
the boys are all here
1395
01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:19,514
and just like
we've always done
1396
01:15:19,516 --> 01:15:23,084
but there's nothing
to watch this year
1397
01:15:23,086 --> 01:15:26,287
so we grab our
sticks and hats
1398
01:15:26,289 --> 01:15:30,191
and head out
in the snow
1399
01:15:30,193 --> 01:15:33,661
you take center
and I'll take goal
1400
01:15:33,663 --> 01:15:37,865
we'll play the game
that we all love
1401
01:15:37,867 --> 01:15:41,969
we're playing for
all the memories
1402
01:15:41,971 --> 01:15:45,573
and the good
times yet to come
1403
01:15:45,575 --> 01:15:49,277
