Let's Win One for the Gipper

Notre Dame Football Coach ROCKNE:
Well, boys ... I'm going to tell you something I've kept to myself for years -- None of you ever knew George Gipp. It was long before your time.
But you know what a tradition he is at Notre Dame... And the last thing he said to me -- "Rock," he said -
"sometime, when the team is up against it -- and the breaks are beating the boys -- tell them to go out there with all they got and win just one for the Gipper. I don't know where I'll be then, Rock", he said -"but I'll know about it - and I'll be happy."

There is a hushed stillness as Rockne and the crowd of boys look at each other.

PLAYER # 12: Well, what are we waiting for?
With a single roar, the players rushed through the doorway.
