Tyra: Okay you need to take a deep breath here and calm down. That's all I'm saying.
Landry: I can take all the deep breaths that I want but that's not going to matter when I'm in the electric chair.

Tyra: There's a trait in the women in my family that just drives men crazy. Treat us like crap and always come back for more.
Tim: That's, uh. That's actually what I was here to talk to you about. I am truly sorry for everything that has happened, for what I've put you through, everything that happened with Lyla. I was a complete jerk and I am so sorry. If you would even consider giving me a second chance, Tyra, believe me it'll be so different. Sorry.
Tyra: You know, so many times, I would have loved to hear those words come out of your mouth. God, I'd love to say yes, but I'd hate myself for it. I'd be a hypocrite you know? I guess timing is everything.

Tyra: Um...Look. I know we were never close buddies and I can only image the load of fake crap that you've had to put up with from people you hardly even know, and I am so not doing that. I just um--I came by to tell you how sorry I am that Tim hasn't been in to see you. He wants to. Although, he won't admit it, but he just can't do it.
Jason: Yeah, why is that?
Tyra: He's scared.
Jason: Oh, he's scared. Yeah, well that's Tim for you.
Tyra: Sure is. Well...
Jason: Well..thanks for coming.
Tyra: Yeah, yeah.
Jason: And you tell Tim whenever he's ready he can come on by.
Tyra: Jason...I'm really sorry. No, I mean...Something like this shouldn't happen to a good person like you. [kisses Jason on the cheek]

Tyra: What are you, a shrink?
Mama Williams: Oh, I'd be nice. I work at Planned Parenthood. You probably haven't seen the last of me.

Tyra: You know, you're such a big tough guy. You can't even go see Jason in the hospital. I mean, damn it, Tim, grow a set, why don't you. ‘Cause we both know that's what this is all about.
Tim: Hey, Tyra. How's Smash? Was he good? Did you have a nice time?
Tyra: Nothing happened. Not really. Besides, don't pretend like you haven't slept with half the Rally Girls.
Tim: We sure do have something special here, Tyra.
Tyra: Yeah, you know maybe you're right. Maybe I am wasting my time. ‘Cause you are just another mediocre football player who's gonna grow up to drink himself to death. Maybe we should just end this right now.
Tim: See you around then.
Tyra: I am serious, Tim. Are you listening to me? If I get in that car right now I'm never coming back. Do you understand?
Tim: I get it.
Tyra: That's it? We're breaking up for real and that's all you have to say. That was great.

Vince: [after watching his appearance on TV] What, you didn't like it?
Jess: Nah, it was cool, but you barely talked about anyone but yourself. I mean, you got a whole team out there...

Vince: I'm Vince.
Coach Taylor: I'm Coach Taylor...you play any football?
Vince: Yeah, all the time.
Coach Taylor: What do you play?
Vince: Madden.

Vince: Why do you care about what I do so much? Aren't I just another player who can throw the ball good and run fast? What happens if I break my ankle and I can't play no more? You gonna come around here then? I've lived here ten years. I've seen three of my best friends get killed walking home from school. This is my life. When I leave football practice, I'm the one looking over my should on my way home.
Coach Taylor: You get in trouble with the law again, you're going to juvie. And then who pays the bills and puts food on the table? This isn't just about football, this is a about life. I'm giving you everything I've got. You think about what I said.

[(Matt and Carlotta are making out on his bed when his grandmother walks in and Matt covers Carlotta with his sheets]
Grandma Saracen: Matthew. Did you eat my Snackwells? My Snackwells!
Matt: Grandma, it's probably late for you to be eating snacks.
Grandma Saracen: Well, I want you to ask Carlotta if she ate the Snackwells.
Matt: You want me to ask her now?
Grandma Saracen: Well, no. In the morning! Getting kinda tired of this.
[Matt uncovers Carlotta's head]
Matt: You stole my grandma's Snackwells. You probably ate 'em too. First you take the tapioca...
[Carlotta laughs]

[After a girl passing by says hello to Tim]
J.D.: How many girlfriends do you have?
Tim: [looking at Lyla] Just the one, McCoy.
J.D.: [looking at Lyla too] God, she is so pretty.
Tim: Yeah, she is pretty special, man.

[Billy has just asked Coach Taylor to take him on as an assistant coach]
Billy: I respect you sir. I respect what you do. You're a molder of men. And with my baby and all, I think it would be good for me to be around someone like you. Just give me a chance.

[Coach Taylor walks into Matt blowing off steam in the locker room]
Coach Taylor: Hey! What the hell are you doing?
Matt: I did whatever you asked me to. I helped you win a state championship, I got you to 3-1 this season, I worked my ass off in practice. I do everything that you say! If it's 'cause J.D. is better than me, tell me that!
Coach Taylor: My job is to field a team out there that wins games. Right now, that means J.D: McCoy. Yes.
Matt: Okay. Then I quit.
Coach Taylor: You're not quitting this team.
Matt: Yes, I am.
Coach Taylor: No, you're not quitting this team and I'm not gonna let you quit. I know you. You quit this team you're gonna hate yourself. You wanna be pissed? Fine, you go ahead, you be pissed. I don't give a damn. But you are not quitting this team.
Matt: Fine. Fine, I'll sit on your bench. I'll come to practice and I'll do whatever you tell me to do. But I'm gonna hate it. And you're gonna hate it. Good talk, coach.

[Hastings is pretending to be a TV host while Luke pretends to be Vince]
Hastings: Oh, there he is, the golden child Vince Howard. Tell us how you slaughtered the Panthers.
Luke: I threw the ball to myself, I caught it in the end zone, and then I kicked the extra point with my gold-plated schlong.

[Julie and Matt are making out in a cabin]
Julie: Does it just smell like wet dog?
Matt: You know what, let's not do this.
Julie: Nnnnn-No, nnn-no, I told you I want to.
Matt: Nnnn-No, you really don't and that's OK because we don't have to.
Julie: We...we don't?
Matt: No, we just hang out or, uh eat or I don't know whatever.
Julie: Really.
Matt: Yeah, but don't touch me right now; just give me a minute, please.
