  • Becky is considering giving up the team to get the attention of Junior since he seems to like cheerleaders.
    Becky: Hey, Uncle Kev?
    Kevin: What?
    Becky: Do you think I'm pretty?
    Kevin: (Matter-of-factly) No.
    Becky: (Frowns)
    Kevin: (Smiles; just as matter-of-factly) I think you're beautiful.
    Becky: (Smiles)
  • As John Madden and a group of pro players finishing helping the Little Giants and board their bus to leave, Danny asks Madden if he has any advice for him as a coach.
    Madden: There's no big secret to winning football. It's doing what these guys do every game. Just go out and give it your best. Bottom line, I took a team to a Super Bowl, and we won. I even had some guys on that team that nobody wanted. But we were a team, and that's what you guys are. You're a football team. That's like a family, except you get to hit each other. But you have to stick together. Do that, and you'll be fine.
  • Johnny's Dad making it to the game. The moment Johnny sees him, he dodges the entire Cowboys defensive line and scores a touchdown. The fact that he scored doesn't even really seem to register to him, because as soon as he's in the end zone, he tosses the ball aside, jumps into his dad's arms and hugs him. Doubles as a Moment of Awesome.
  • At the end of the film, Danny agrees to let Kevin keep his car dealership in return for Kevin keeping a promise he made to Danny as a kid: putting "The O'Shea Brothers" on the town water tower instead of just "Kevin O'Shea."
  • Also after winning, the Little Giants and Danny offer to Kevin and the Cowboys to join their team, under Danny's original argument to Kevin of "1 town, 1 team".
