There are no doubt millions of young men dreaming of snagging the precious few slots in the nfl. Many grew up facing adversity. You are about to meet a single mother who dedicated her life to get there. 12 of her students already have. How many of you want to leave here and go to college . Its just hours before the game but these football plarps in madison high in michigan are laser focused on this woman, brittany wagner. You can do it. She knows the secret to success. A dozen nfl Football Players that were students. I begged and i pleaded and cried. She was at the east Mississippi Community college. A place where many were dropped from elite programs. I had a daughter. I failed two drug tests. They ended up charges me with Second Degree felony. Based in mississippi, netflix dubbed it last chance u. What does it mean, the title . We took chances on a lot of kids that nobody else would take a chance on. They were the discards . Yeah, and no one wanted a stig that ma with the kids with a record or deep academic or social issues. There are 120rryes in this room that if you told me, i would ntd believe. Stories like dominic rouse. The senior with a lot riding on this season. Football is everything. I have been playing the game since i was 8. Team captain and middle linebacker, minicknamed butter. Brittany is at this High School Just outside detroit where virtually all the students qualify for free lunch. These guys you saw on the tv show. They sat in locker rooms just like this. You going to get a big hit the for me tonight . She is training teachers and counselors to work with people like butter. You look at a lot of kids and youre like, same story, same story. What is the secret . I do think its about caring about people. You dont see people as humans until you are human yourself. Where we going . Okay. They are all four together in a little clone. I dont think thats going to work. Do athletes get special privileges . Do they get to live by a different set of rules . I dont think so. For some, football is the only opportunity they have to be in college. And when you take that away from them, you take away all of that. And now what . I feel anxious. I feel nervous, i feel excited. Deandre johnson is one of the students. Johnson does charged with misdemeanor battery and kicked off the football team. He made headlines for punching a woman in a bar. I totally have a walked away. He pled guilty to a misdeemer. A lot of people say, they will take chances on a lot of people but not that one. But again, do you ruin someones entire life. He is now the quarterback at Florida Atlantic university. Some people will say, look at the nfl. You get athletes that are dis behab misbehaving. . Do they . Or is the microscope on them . We have politicians doing the same thing. And we want someone to be the scapegoat and we peg it on athletes. Up hated me. Its okay that you hated me. You dont hate me anymore. For players like ollie, football isnt just a game. I heard you got hurt yesterday . I had to do a tackle a lot of times when you look in the skutudents home lives, they are really missing basics. I never really thought about it. I cannot imagine being 7, 8 years old and having to worry about what i was going to eat. And then we hold that kid to the same standard that we hold me to. How is that fair . We want to beat them up because because they play football . Because they make a mistake . Its a freaking miracle they are even functioning at 18. Butter admits he made his fair share of mistakes. He had to fight to play football at madison high. Superintendent randy speck gave him that chance. He said, i made mistakes and im ready to learn from it. When you see a young man say that, he can get five more chances. And butter says he wants to make good on the chances for his 1yearold son, dominic jr. I see myself. Its a little me. He became father to little butter at age 15. My son right now, im still trying to be the best i can. I dont want him to feel like his dad dont love him. He said his own dad showed him a lot of love. But the day before we met butter, his dad gave him news, he was going to prison. Yesterday, i found out my dad so i mean thats deep. Yeah. His father tells her son to take out his frustrations on the field. I think its because of the situation. Like hes got something to prove. Despite the new impossible odds, shes convinced he will end up in the nfl. I have faith in him. I have faith in our god that its going to happen. I dont have there needs to be a plan b for the rest of your life. Youre not going to play football the rest of your life. But maybe not having a plan b will at least get to you a college. At eight year, brittany started his own firm 10,000 pencils to help kids around the country. Speck was among the first to hire here. Why do you place so much faith in brittany . If you understand relationships and commitments, you will get results. Speck has skmicommitments fo doubledouble improvement on the district test scores. You cannot have success in challenging places without dedemps, without grace. You have to have it. Now brittany is working across the district to 3wi8d relationships. Counselors like stacy coaly say the tips and tricks are working. We dont have anyone slipping through the cracks anymore. Is success to you a sort of glittering nfl contract . No. I have had players call me and say miss wagner, im a truck driver. And you know what . I have insurance. Miss wagner, i have a schoolteacher. I teach biology at mir high school and im coaching the quarterback at the high school. Success. You dont count it in football . No, you have wins and losses in life moren the wins. Up next, George Clooney and matt damon speaking out about their mentor Harvey Weinstein. What they say they saw about his behavior. But wondered, was this the best treatment for me . So i made a point to talk to my doctor. He told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots. Eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Eliquis had both. And that turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if switching to eliquis is right for you. Im never gonna be able ill take a sick day tomorrow. On our daughters birthday . Moms dont take sick days. Moms take nyquil severe. The nighttime, sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, fever, best sleep with a cold, medicine. With flavors youll love. Re like new savory grilled mediterranean shrimp. And new sweet and spicy Nashville Hot shrimp. Plus our classics like garlic shrimp scampi. Try as much as you want however you want em, but dont wait, it ends soon. Delsym helpswhich means, impulse to cough for 12 hours. Youre controlling your cough on your morning commute. And later when youre joking with beth. Even when most cough medicines stop, delsym is still working. Delsym. The 1 12hour cough medicine. Youve worked hard. Busted tail. And impressed the boss. Maybe its time to be your own . Transform your career with strayer universitys mba program today. Lets get it. George clooney and matt damon say they owe a lot to disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein but not their silence. He helped launch their movie careers. What they say needs to happen now.

What about your kids . What is the conversation . This is not just a hollywood problem . Having four daughters, i say the most important thing is to give them i will be behind them with a shotgun. All that stuff. But the reality is you have to give them a selfe steam. You are not going to be with them. You have to trust they are going to make the right decisions and be able to protect themselves. And change. Thats it. None of this matters at all unless it becomes impossible to happen. And were all going to be come police sit in that. And that is a conversation you have to have with your kids, when my kids can talk. Thats important.

It can help relieve your belly pain and lets you have more frequent and complete bowel movements that are easier to pass. Do not give linzess to children less than six, and it should not be given to children six to less than eighteen. It may harm them. Dont take linzess if you have a bowel blockage. Get immediate help if you develop unusual or severe stomach pain, especially with bloody or black stools. The most common side effect is diarrhea, sometimes severe. If its severe stop taking linzess and call your doctor right away. Other side effects include gas, stomacharea pain, and swelling. Ask your doctor if 90 days of linzess may be right for you.
