The Replacements (film) - Breakdown of Games

Breakdown of Games

  • Pre-Strike Game — Miami Barracudas versus Washington Sentinels: Sentinels QB Eddie Martel could have run in for the winning score at the last second, but opted for sliding down before the goal line to avoid possibly getting hurt.
  • Game 1 — Detroit Ironmen versus Washington Sentinels: The Sentinels lose 14–10 after Falco disregards the play Coach McGinty calls in. Instead of a pass, he audibles to Cochran, because of his history of losing important games. Cochran then gets tackled at the one yard line.
  • Game 2 — San Diego Stallions versus Washington Sentinels: Sentinels win 17–16, with a little help from some quite distracting cheerleader dancing and a last second FG by Gruff. The team begins to develop chemistry on the field.
  • Game 3 — Washington Sentinels at Phoenix Scorpions: Washington's only road game. Sentinels win 22–21 by sheer luck... and a little stickum.
  • Game 4 — Dallas Ropers versus Washington Sentinels: The entire Dallas roster crossed the picket line so the replacement Sentinels have to play a team of full-time professionals. Sentinels win 20–17, coming back from a halftime score of 17–0, Dallas. Winning this game ensures that the Sentinels will have a slot in the playoffs.

Famous quotes containing the words breakdown of, breakdown and/or games:

    The chief lesson of the Depression should never be forgotten. Even our liberty-loving American people will sacrifice their freedom and their democratic principles if their security and their very lives are threatened by another breakdown of our free enterprise system. We can no more afford another general depression than we can afford another total war, if democracy is to survive.
    Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

    A bad liver is to a Frenchman what a nervous breakdown is to an American. Everyone has had one and everyone wants to talk about it.
    Art Buchwald (b. 1925)

    The rules of drinking games are taken more serious than the rules of war.
    Chinese proverb.
