• Spencer Strasmore : My dad worked in the mills in Bethlehem, alright ? Provided a decent living. He took care of us. Supported us. Nothing lavish.

  Joe Krutel : Right.

  Spencer Strasmore : So one day he gets a call into the big boss's office. First time he's met him in 30 years.

  Joe Krutel : So what did the boss say?

  Spencer Strasmore : Nothing.

  Joe Krutel : Nothing? What the fuck kind of story is this?

  Spencer Strasmore : You see it's not about what the boss said. It's what he didn't say, Joe. He didn't say anything interesting at all. So after 30 years my dad finally had a chance to sit across from the man who was running everything. And you know what he saw?

  Joe Krutel : What?

  Spencer Strasmore : Nothing. Nothing special. My dad realized in that moment he could have been that guy sitting behind that desk. But he realized it too late. We're all just a bunch of guys, Joe. Some of us believe that we could do anything. Some of us believe we can't. So when you ask me why I want to do this. My answer is because I know what guy I wanna be.

• Dallas Cowboys Owner : Big takes vision, Spencer. Do you have a vision?

  Spencer Strasmore : I do.
