JOEY: Hey, who wants to ah, throw the ball around a little, maybe get a little three on three going?

RACHEL: Oh! That would be sooo much fun!

PHOEBE: Oh, can I play too? I've never played football, like ever.

JOEY: Great, you can cover Chandler.

CHANDLER: No, no, no, I don't, I don't really wanna play.

JOEY: Come on man! You never want to do anything since you and Janice broke up.

CHANDLER: That's not true! I wanted to wear my bathrobe and eat peanut clusters all day. I wanted to start drinking in the morning. Don't say that I don't have goals!


MONICA: Okay, looks like Ross and I are captains. Okay, so um, I bunnied first so that means I get to pick first. Joey.

JOEY: Thank you.

RACHEL: Monica, I'm your best friend.

ROSS: Sweetie, don't worry you'll get picked. Chandler.

RACHEL: Ross!

MONICA: Phoebe.

ROSS: Sweetie, now I pick you.

RACHEL: You don't pick me! You're stuck with me!


MONICA: Okay, Phoebe you know what you're doing right?

PHOEBE: Yeah.

MONICA: Okay, Joey's gonna catch it, and you and I are gonna block.

PHOEBE: What's block?

MONICA: Phoebe, I thought you said you know what you're doing?

PHOEBE: I thought you meant in life.


RACHEL: I almost caught that one!

CHANDLER: Great! Now, the score is 7 to almost 7.


JOEY: Haaaaa! Hey-hey, thanks for stopping our ball.

WOMAN: You are playing American football?

JOEY: Yeah! Wow, you're like from a whole other country.

WOMAN: I'm Dutch.

JOEY: Hi-hi, I'm Joey.

WOMAN: I'm Margha.

JOEY: I'm sorry Dutch, I didn't get that last little bit.

CHANDLER: Hey Joey, do you wanna play football or you wanna... Hi, I'm Chandler.

MARGHA: Hello, Chandler.

JOEY: Her name is Dutch, and also Marklan.

MARGHA: Margha.

JOEY: Mar-klan.

MARGHA: Mar-gha.

CHANDLER: Mar-haaaan.


CHANDLER: Y'know, I was thinking about ah, asking her for her number.

JOEY: Thanks man, but I think it makes a stronger statement if I ask for it myself, y'know.

CHANDLER: Whoa-ho, whoa! No, I was thinking about y'know for me, as a part of that whole getting over Janice thing you were talking about.

JOEY: Oh, yeah, that. All right, means that much to ya, I'll let you have her.

CHANDLER: Thanks. What, let me have her?! What do mean? Like if you didn't I wouldn't have a shot?

JOEY: Well I don't like to say it out loud, but, yeah! Don't feel bad man, we all have our strengths. You're better with numbers and stuff.

CHANDLER: Math!!! You're giving me math!


PHOEBE: Touchdown!!! Touchdown!!!

ROSS: Uh, hello, the buzzer buzzed. It doesn't count.

MONICA: After the snap!

ROSS: Before the snap!

JOEY: After!!!

CHANDLER: Before!!!

RACHEL: Now, does it really matter?

ALL: Yes!!!


MONICA: Listen, I'm not gonna go through this with you again, okay. Just once I wanna beat when you can't blame it on the broken nose, the buzzer, or the fact that you thought you were getting mono. Let's just call this, tie score and it's halftime.

ROSS: Okay, first of all, I don't play with cheaters, and second of all, you know I had swollen glands!!

MONICA: Y'know what? I'll think you'll play.

ROSS: Oh really! Why is that?

MONICA: Because the winner gets this!

ROSS: The Geller Cup.

CHANDLER: Is everybody else seeing a troll doll nailed to a two by four?

ALL: Yeah.

CHANDLER: Okay, good.


CHANDLER: ... hold on a second Joe, where do Dutch people come from?

JOEY: Ah well, the ah, Pennsylvania Dutch, come from Pennsylvania.

CHANDLER: And the other ah, Dutch people, they come on from somewhere near the Netherlands, right?

JOEY: Nice try. See the Netherlands is this make believe place where Peter Pan and Tinker Bell come from.


ROSS: Okay, y'know what, let's just cut to the chase here. Okay? Heidi, which of my boys do you like?

CHANDLER AND JOEY: What are you doing? What are you doing? What are you doing?

MARGHA: Which do I like?

ROSS: Yeah, y'know for dating, general merriment, taking back to your windmill...

MARGHA: Well, if I had to chose right now, which by the way I find really weird, I would have to say, Chandler.

CHANDLER: Yes!!

JOEY: Wait a minute! Wait a minute! She obviously didn't understand the question.

CHANDLER: Well, why don't you have Captain Hook explain it to her.


MARGHA: I'm sorry, Joey, that is my chose.

CHANDLER: You hear that! That is her chose, mister I'll let you have her! I win! You suck! I rule all! A mini-wave in celebration of me!!!

MARGHA: I'm now thinking I would like to change my answer to, no one.

CHANDLER: Wh-what?

MARGHA: I now find you shallow and um, a dork. All right, bye.

JOEY: Nice going. You just saved yourself a couple months of sex.


MONICA: We have to do this. We are playing for women everywhere. Okay, just think about every lousy date that you ever had, okay, every guy who kept on the TV while you're making out...

PHOEBE: Oh my God! You dated someone with a glass eye too?!

MONICA: Come on, okay, come on this is for all womankind. Let's kill 'um!

RACHEL: Yeah!!! Kill 'um!!!

PHOEBE: All right, no, well I want to kill them to, but their boys, y'know how are we gonna beat three boys?


MONICA: All right, we still have a minute and a half to go, and we're down by two points. Two points... Phoebe you do a button-hook again. Rachel, you go long.

RACHEL: No! Come on! Don't make me go long. Use me. They never cover me.

MONICA: Honey, there's a reason.


JOEY: Thirty seconds left on the timer!

CHANDLER: Okay, okay, so we get to take that stupid troll thing home!


CHANDLER: Guys! Guys! Come on! It's Thanksgiving, it's not important who wins or loses. The important thing is, the Dutch girl picked me! Me! Not you! Holland loves Chandler! Thank you, Amsterdam! Good night!!!


RACHEL: We should defiantly play football more often. Maybe there's a like league we could join or something.

PHOEBE: Isn't there a national football league.

CHANDLER: Yes. Yes, there is, they play on Sundays and Monday nights.

RACHEL: Oh shoot! I work Monday nights.
