FOLKSY ANNOUNCER: Well, it's the first Saturday in September,
and that means one thing in Springfield.
It's that time again.
Opening day of peewee football.
(OVER P.A.): And everybody's headed
down to Child Soldier Field to catch all the action.
It all comes down to this,
the first game of the year,
perfect season on the line.
And drunks are being rolled off the field.
Ladies and gentlemen,
your Springfield Neutrinos!
(CROWD CHEERING)
BART: Huh?
NELSON: Where'd everybody go?
BART: I can't see.
(GASPS) They over-fogged the run-in!
They put those kids in danger
just to psych up the crowd.
Yeah, are you psyched up now?
Huh? Are you?!
(PLAYERS PANICKING, HELMETS CLONKING)
Concussions!
Concessions!
- (DOOR DINGS) - Aah!
(ANXIOUS CHATTER)
My boy hit his head doing football!
I'm a doctor's wife.
Save my boy first!
My boy needs an MRI!
(CLAMORING) Ow!
- Ow! - Ow!
- Ow! Ow! - Oh!
(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
With head injury concerns
on the mind, the town has shut down
its peewee football program.
Professor, what danger does this
concussion threat truly pose?
Uh, well, Kent,
these children will need their brains
unbruised for the demanding, high-tech jobs
of the future:
polishing and buffing our robot masters.
Indeed.
And here to defend youth football,
we have... Nelson's dad.
Are you wearing makeup?
Is it worth the risk to your son's health
when only .1 percent of youth football players
make it to the pros?
You saying my boy doesn't have what it takes
to play pro ball? Huh?
Boy, show him your moves.
Juke it, juke it!
(GRUNTING)
Why are you dekeing it when I said juke it?
Take a lap!
Without football, Kent, (NELSON GROANS)
how are kids gonna learn character like I did,
you stupid fruit-munch?
And what is your problem, smart-nuts?
(GRUNTS)
Which brings us to this question:
if not football,
what sport is safe for our children?
But there are so many club sports
that can eat up all our free time.
What about baseball?
(SCOFFS) Baseball...
Rife with steroids!
Then test for steroids!
Oh and then there'll be no home runs!
(ALL ARGUING) Um, I think I-I may have a solution.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
What about biathlon?
That teaches kids to ski and kill.
How about Frisbee-golf?
If I could just have your attention...
Hey, what about Filipino tooth-fighting?
It builds biting, jaw strength and mouth work.
The champion for a long time was a dog.
(GROANS) No one is listening to me.
Well, maybe no one wants to hear
your ridiculous idea.
Let's go, we're late for prenatal yoga.
Milhouse is ten.
Why are we still doing that?
Poor Kirk.
No one listens to him.
Even Luann treats him like garbage.
(SIGHS) Love's funny like that.
Help him out.
Make people listen to his idea.
Oh, why me?
I only came to this concert
because I was told it was a potluck.
(GRUNTS)
(GROANS)
(ARGUING CONTINUES)
Attention, smothering parents
who only came to hear themselves talk!
You're an idiot! (ARGUING QUIETS)
This guy has as much right to bore us
as any of you!
Take it away, buddy.
(ECHOING): Buddy, buddy, buddy...
"Buddy." Huh.
Um, I've got an exciting sport
that's great exercise a-and teaches teamwork.
Lacrosse.
- La-what? - What-cross?
What-what?
Lacrosse.
It's the perfect combination of
America's two least watched sports:
soccer and hockey.
(MURMURING EXCITEDLY)
Any kid can learn to play lacrosse.
Even this.
(PARENTS GASPING)
This isn't a drive-in movie.
(PARENTS GASPING)
Everybody,
feel free to whip stuff at my son's face.
(LAUGHTER AND INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Yarr.
Now hold on there.
Lacrosse has the second highest concussion rate,
right after football.
(CHANTING): Safer than football!
Safer than football!
Hey, why don't we have this fruit-munch
teach our kids this crazy sport?
Me, coach your kids?
Most of you won't even make eye contact
when I'm weighing your yogurt.
I'll do it.
If Homer will coach with me.
Huh?
We've come too far together
on this crazy ride.
It wouldn't feel right to do it without you...
buddy.
(ECHOING): Buddy, buddy, buddy...
Mm?
Oh, fine,
I'll coach with this guy.
But I promise you this:
I will never stop complaining about it.
(CHEERING)
(GRUMBLING): Stupid sport I never heard of...
make me wake up early on a Saturday...
probably have to slice oranges...
Don't even know the rules
because I refuse to learn 'em...
my kids will probably suck at it...
And I'll have to kneel down
on photo day, knees get all wet...
despite my bad attitude,
I'm thrilled by the nonstop action...
kids running towards me
with a look of joy I've never seen before...
Dad, we won!
It's okay, kids.
What matters is you tried your best.
Have an orange slice.
No, we won!
Yes, we're all winners.
Because losing teaches valuable lessons.
Have an orange slice.
We did it, buddy.
You and I make a great team.
We won for real!
For the first time in our lives,
we can say "Good game"
and actually mean it.
Good game!
Uh, good game!
Ha! That's loser talk!
(CHEERING)
(GROANING)
Wow, pizza really does
taste sweeter after you win.
(HUMMING HAPPILY)
Dude.
My kids have never won at anything.
All the girl does is read
and the boy's got one of those
paying attention diseases
that isn't really a disease.
Awesome job, guys!
How do you know so much about lacrosse?
Wait. You want to know about me?
(DISINTERESTED MUMBLING)
Well, it all goes back to my college days,
where I was the star attackman on our lacrosse team.
(CROWD CHEERING)
(MARCHING BAND PLAYING)
I'd even been drafted to play in the pros
for the Milwaukee Zoom.
After scoring the championship-winning goal,
I was on top of the world, man.
I was high-fiving everybody.
For the first time in my life,
no one, and I mean no one, was leaving me hanging.
I was slap-happy,
I couldn't stop myself, until...
I highed one five too far.
(METALLIC CLANK) (WRIST SHATTERING)
Our school mascot, Sir Gudge-a-lot.
(RETCHING)
My Zoom dream died that day.
Mm...
(GRUNTS ANGRILY)
Uh... Ah...
(METALLIC CLICKING)
My wrist healed, but my wrist in here...
never did.
I've never high-fived my own son.
The mascot wore a suit of armor?
Just like a knight!
Yeah, but now lacrosse has brought us together.
Hey, a toast,
to new friendship!
Could I get a roll of toilet paper, please?
I get nosebleeds when I drink.
To... new...
friendship.
Mm. Mm-mm. Mm-mm.
(HOMER SNORING)
- Dad! Dad! - Dad! Dad!
Dad, wake up! Wake up! Wake up!
(MOANING GROGGILY)
Oof!
(MAGGIE COOS)
It's 6:00 a.m. on a Saturday.
We have a weekend lacrosse tournament!
(HORN HONKING OUTSIDE) There's Coach K!
Come on, come on, come on!
(BART AND LISA GRUNTING)
(LISA CHUCKLES)
(BOTH BREATHING RAPIDLY)
LISA: Come on, Dad!
(GRUNTS, GASPS)
Check out the travel van, brah! (CHUCKLES)
Two days, ten games,
700 miles and one sweet mixtape.
I hope you like Big Bad Voodoo Daddy,
'cause this van's about to swing.
♪ So I think about my next drink ♪
♪ And it's you and me ♪
♪ And the bottle makes three tonight ♪
Uh...
I'm pretty sure a mixtape
isn't just the same song
over and over again.
No, no, dude, they're different live versions.
You can tell because some are longer.
(MUSIC STOPS) Hey, you want a hit off my vape pen?
It tastes like passionfruit
and people think you're a smoker.
Why would I want that?
(CHUCKLING): Don't worry,
Marge isn't here.
Oh, speaking of which,
where is the craziest place
you two have ever done it?
- What? - Let's both say it at the same time.
One... two...
- Don't! - Chipotle!
There are kids back there!
Oh, they can't hear us.
I got 'em watching classic lacrosse matches.
(CROWD CHEERING)
Textbook ankle-breaker

And Paul Gait with the dip and dunk!
Everyone be sure to fuel up
with a rice sandwich.
- Mmm. - Mmm.
HOMER: Rice in a sandwich?
That's mush-on-mush.
Doesn't this dweeb know kids need bologna to win?
Those sandwiches had so many carbs!
I've never played harder!
Rice power!
(GRUNTS)
Uter, watch those alligator arms!
Hug the pipe, Sherri!

(CHEERING)
Bart Simpson with the Canadian egg roll!
We won every game.
Kirk is like a sports genius who everyone hates.
Worse than Jim Harbaugh?
Well, not that bad.
I know Kirk's a bit of a dizzy duck,
but remember, you're doing this for the kids.
Right, right. The kids.
Everything for the kids.
(GASPS) Oh, God, he's coming!
Hide, Marge.
Oh, good call, buddy.
Disco nap.
We got to power up for tonight. (CHUCKLES)
Tonight?
Which gentlemen's club should we hit first,
Skin City or the Tassel Castle?
Gentlemen's...
you mean a strip club?
Yeah, Wiggles has great dancers,
but they're kind of stuck up,
if you believe Lap-Aficionado.com.
Which, uh... (CHUCKLES) I do.
Why would I want to go to a strip club?
I'm married to a naked lady.
Drive time to Sapphire Diamond is only 39 minutes.
That's the fastest it's been all day.
Hey, wa... 38 minutes!
Listen, Kirk, I'm a lot of kind of guys...
A booze guy,
a don't-know-my-kids'- birthdays guy,
a steal-the-blow-dryer- from-the-motel guy,
but I am not a strip club guy.
You do want to hang with me, don't you, buddy?
(GROANS SOFTLY)
I can't do it.
I can't pretend to be this guy's friend
for one more second.
I scored three goals today!
I'm a jock. A jock!
I didn't spit on my hand for the post-game handshake.
Hey, pal, I don't like Kirk either,
but look how much fun the kids' heads are having.
(SIGHS)
Of course I want to hang with you, buddy.
But, you know, I'm pretty tired from all those YouTube videos
you showed me about whiskey making.
It gets its color from the barrel.
I know, the barrel.
Let's just get some sleep.
Well, all right.
Next time we can just rage twice as hard, I guess.

What the hell is that?
I can't sleep without my white noise machine.

(SAD SIGH)
FOLKSY ANNOUNCER: Springfield, the city
that lives and dies by youth lacrosse,
a sport we first learned about five weeks ago.
And with just two hours left until face off
against Capital City, the countdown clock
is ticking away.
As always, laying out all the information you need to know,
this is WXPO "The Pipe."
(CHEERING)
And now the man responsible for this miracle on grass,
the "Priest of the Crease," "The Riceman Cometh,"
Coach K!
(CONFUSED NOISES)
Hmm, it's not like Kirk
to miss such an important pre-game rally.
Yeah, well, better get slicing on these oranges.
Where is that coach?
If we lose this game,
I have to give the mayor of Capital City
a crate of Springfield apricots.
We grow no apricots!
Kirk is missing.
I haven't seen him since he left home
happily singing about his friendship with you.
(HUMMING NERVOUSLY)
Dad, what do you know?
What? Nothing!
I don't... oh, oh...
All right.
The truth is, your husband and your father
is a soul-sucking loser who found out
I was only pretending to be his friend for the sake of the team.
But, but why did he empty out our bank account,
and all in one-dollar bills?
Oh, no.
There's only one thing a man like Kirk wants
with that many singles.
To hand out to the poor?
Worse.
To bring to a strip club.
I'll go get him.
I'll also get him. No, me! Me!
I just need to go home and put on
my special sweat pants.
No, it's my husband's fault that Kirk has run off
to that jiggle joint and only he can get him out.
Me?
But those places are filled with creeps.
Plus, all the chairs face the stage.
What if I want to have a conversation
with another patron?
Come on, Dad, you've got to do it!
Without Coach K, we can't play in the championship!
Look at the countdown clock.
ANNOUNCER: Countdown clock brought to you by Ray's Steaks:
When you want to raise some stakes,
head over to Ray's... Steaks.
(CHANTING): Save Coach K! Save Coach K!
Save Coach K!
Save Coach K! Save Coach K!
As your wife, I'm begging you,
if you ever loved me, go to that strip club.
(CHEERING)
(DOG HOWLS)
(GROANS)
HOMER: Oh, guys.
(TIRES SCREECH)
(GROANS)
(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING INSIDE)
(ANGRY GROAN) Okay.
All I got to do is go in, get the pervert,
and bring him back to a park full of children.
Hey, I'm looking for my friend.
Bald middle-aged guy, sad paunch, given up on life.
It's 10:00 in the morning.
Take your pick.
(DEPRESSED GROANING)
- Oh, boy. - Oh, man.
- (WORRIED MOAN) - WOMAN: Hello.
Uh, no, thank you. Hey there, big guy.
No, thank you.
Happily married man with no cash coming through.
(PANTING)
Made it.
Nothing in this place can tempt me.
(MOANS)
Oh, baby, yes.
Those legs go on forever.
(MOANS)
Where are they?
Maybe we shouldn't have sent Homer Simpson
into that den of sin.
(MARGE GROANS, MS. HOOVER GASPS)
My husband's a good man.
He can do this.
(CHEWING SOUNDS)
Oh, worst food I've ever had.
So much...
Is that guy still in the champagne room?
He hasn't slept in days.
He brought a cooler of rice sandwiches.
He says they give him energy.
Wait, who do I know that likes rice sandwiches?
(GASPS) Bart's friend's dad!
So anyway, they can't call it bourbon
unless it's from Kentucky.
It's the American bourbon... He's not a loser paying for lap dances;
he's a loser paying for listening.
Kirk, we've got to go.
The big game is about to start.
Come on... buddy?
Oh, now I'm your buddy again, huh?
Well, guess what, buddy.
Carmeleena and Bodacious are my true friends.
Nothing, nothing that we had was real.
Well, it was all fake.
But, damn it, somehow you turned our fat, lazy, loser kids
into winners.
Kirk Van Houten, I don't like you.
But I respect you.
Respect?
That's the one thing you can't buy
in a place like this.
(LOUD PEELING)
I've got to get to that game!
Hey, that's a great realization you had there, pally.
Now if we could just settle this up, eh?
$15,000?
12 lap-dances an hour, times three girls, times 56 hours,
pole tax, glitter recycling fee.
It's quite a ride.
(GRUNTS)
(MEN COUGHING, KIRK YELLS) Run!
(NERVOUSLY GROANING)
(YELLS) DJs!
Uh-oh,
Japanese businessmen!
ATM with giant service fee!
Aw, we'll never make it to the game.
Our kids were depending on us and we let them down.
You let them down. You.
Did you say kids?
We all have kids.
We'd do anything for 'em.
(BABIES COOING, NURSERY MUSIC PLAYS)
Come on, working moms, let's get these dads to that game.
I'm sorry, kids, but your coaches aren't here.
You're going to have to forfeit.
And now to blow this whistle and make it official.
(GUST OF WIND, HELICOPTER BLADES SPINNING)
It's the Strip-a-copter!
I mean, it's a helicopter I've never rented before.
Helmet up, kids.
Let's win ourselves a championship.
Who wants orange slices?
(CHEERING)
ALL: Yay!
No matter how bad our kids screw up the rest of their lives,
they'll always have this moment.
Buddy, you deserve this.
