I don't know what to say really.
Three minutes
to the biggest battle of our professional lives
all comes down to today.
Either
we heal
as a team
or we are going to crumble.
Inch by inch
play by play
till we're finished.
We are in hell right now, gentlemen
believe me
and
we can stay here
and get the shit kicked out of us
or
we can fight our way
back into the light.
We can climb out of hell.
One inch, at a time.

Now I can't do it for you.
I'm too old.
I look around and I see these young faces
and I think
I mean
I made every wrong choice a middle age man could make.
I uh....
I pissed away all my money
believe it or not.
I chased off
anyone who has ever loved me.
And lately,
I can't even stand the face I see in the mirror.

You know when you get old in life
things get taken from you.
That's, that's part of life.
But,
you only learn that when you start losing stuff.
You find out that life is just a game of inches.
So is football.
Because in either game
life or football
the margin for error is so small.
I mean
one half step too late or to early
you don't quite make it.
One half second too slow or too fast
and you don't quite catch it.
The inches we need are everywhere around us.
They are in ever break of the game
every minute, every second.

On this team, we fight for that inch
On this team, we tear ourselves, and everyone around us
to pieces for that inch.
We CLAW with our finger nails for that inch.
Cause we know
when we add up all those inches
that's going to make the fucking difference
between WINNING and LOSING
between LIVING and DYING.

I'll tell you this
in any fight
it is the guy who is willing to die
who is going to win that inch.
And I know
if I am going to have any life anymore
it is because, I am still willing to fight, and die for that inch
because that is what LIVING is.
The six inches in front of your face.

Now I can't make you do it.
You gotta look at the guy next to you.
Look into his eyes.
Now I think you are going to see a guy who will go that inch with you.
You are going to see a guy
who will sacrifice himself for this team
because he knows when it comes down to it,
you are gonna do the same thing for him.

That's a team, gentlemen
and either we heal now, as a team,
or we will die as individuals.
That's football guys.
That's all it is.
Now, whattaya gonna do?

Golf & Mike


Golf & Mike, more often credited in Thailand as Golf-Mike (Thai: กอล์ฟ-ไมค์), are a Thai pop duo consisting of brothers Pichaya "Golf" Nitipaisalkul and Pirat "Mike" Nitipaisalkul.

History

Golf (Pichaya Nitipaisalkul) was born on February 20, 1987, the younger brother of Sand and Bank, a retired musical sibling duo that was under record label RS Entertainment. Mike Pirat Nitipaisalkul was born on December 19, 1989, the youngest son in the family. The four brothers have a younger sister Ying, born in 1992.

Influenced by their older brothers, Golf and Mike aspired to be singers, and in 2002, the two Nitipaisalkul brothers were recruited into the G-Junior project by GMM Grammy, Thailand's largest entertainment company. They were trained in singing, dancing, acting, and language for four years before finally debuting as Golf-Mike in November 2005 with their self-titled album, Golf-Mike. Dance-pop track "Bounce" was chosen to be the album's first promotional single, and it became a big hit in Thailand. The other tracks, "Ruang Lek Kaung Tur", "Ta Lok Dee", "Yah Len Bab Nee," and "Epilogue" were also widely accepted in the industry.

The duo's first nomination was the Most Popular Artist for the Year award for the Seed Awards 2006, which they also won in February 2006 In March, they were able to hold their first solo concert, Golf-Mike Let's Bounce Concert at Thunder Dome with an audience of 5,000 people.

In June 2006, Golf & Mike was awarded Best Breakthrough Artist from the Channel [V] Thailand Music Video Awards 2006. Later that month, they showed up in Japan forming Johnny's Entertainment's first ever international unit, Kitty GYM along with popular J-pop figure, Tomohisa Yamashita. "GYM", stands for Golf, Yamashita and Mike, respectively with "Kitty" standing for the backup dancers. They released one single, "Fever to Future" as an official supporter of the Women's Volleyball World Grandprix. The single ranked #1 on the Oricon charts.

At the end of August, Golf & Mike teamed up with other G-Junior artists including Chin, Guy, Happy, Madiow, J, Nut, Ken, and Ice as a group called "G-JR" (read as G-J-R) releasing an album, 10 Club.

On October 7, G-JR held a concert again called The Show Must Go On Concert By Golf-Mike & Friends at Impact Arena. At the end of the month, G-JR managed to win a Virgin Hitz Awards 2006 for Popular Vote New Band.

After finishing the promotion for their album 10 Club, Golf & Mike got back to the studios and started working on their second full-length album. By the end of 2006, Golf & Mike decided to release a special album 365 Days With Golf-Mike instead of their second album. This special album included a hit song, "Kaub Khun Young Noi Pai." They promoted the special album and worked in the studio for the second album until March 8, 2007 when their second album, One By One, officially launched to the stores. The first music video for the album, "Fight For You," took them three whole days to practice for Free-Running. On March 13, Golf-Mike was voted by Thailand's Entertainment Reporter Association in the Star Entertainment Awards 2007 as the "Best Group".

In June 2007, they released their first Japanese debut single, "Nippon Ai Ni Ikuyo". Two months later they released their debut Japanese album RIN.

In September 2007, Golf & Mike released a Korean version of their One By One album under SM Entertainment. It contains two bonus tracks sung in Korean.

Both Golf and Mike have taken the leading roles in a Thai series called Ubat Ruk Kaam Kaub Fah that has been broadcasted on Modern 9 TV in Thailand. This series, or lakorn, was directed and screen-written by Ping Lampraplerng.

Golf & Mike have their very own clothing range, which appears in popular shopping areas such as Siam Square in Thailand.

They are currently studying at Mahidol University International College. Their third album, GET R3ADY was released December 2008.

Entree (อ็องเทร) and Restaurant English

Entree (อ็องเทร) เป็นภาษาฝรั่งเศสที่ถูกยืมมาใช้ในภาษาอังกฤษ ออกเสียงว่า อ็องเทร แปลว่าอาหารหนัก (main course หรือ main dish) แต่ในบางประเทศใช้ในความหมายอื่น ซึ่งใกล้เคียงกับคำว่า appetizer หรือ hors d' oeuvres (ภาษาฝรั่งเศสอ่านว่า ออเดิ๊ฟ) เป็นอาหารเรียกน้ำย่อยที่เสิร์ฟก่อนอาหารหนัก

Restaurant English Pronunciation:


เมื่อพูดถึงเรื่องอาหารแล้ว ก็อยากจะซักซ้อมวิธีการสั่งอาหารฝรั่งในภัตตาคารทั้งนี้เพื่อจะช่วยให้คนสั่งอาหารที่ต้องการ โดยไม่เหน็ดเหนื่อยเมื่อยมือ

Husband and wife are ready to order their meals

Waiter อ่านว่า เว้ เถอะ คือ พนักงานเสิร์ฟ ที่คนไทยชอบเรียกว่า บ๋อย : What would you like to have, ma'am? อ่านว่า แม้แดม คือ คุณผู้หญิง

Wife: I'll have filet mignon. (ภาษาฝรั่งเศสออกเสียงว่า ฟิเลมิย็อง บวกสำเนียงฝรั่งเศสด้วย เป็นเนื้อวัวที่นุ่มที่สุดที่อยู่ระหว่างกระดูกตะโพกและซี่โครงท่อนล่าง)

Waiter: How would you like it done?

Wife: Medium rare, please. Do you serve salad with it?
rare = ค่อนไปทางดิบ
medium rare = กึ่งสุก กึ่งดิบ
medium = สุกปานกลาง
well - done = สุกมาก
ผู้ใดชอบแบบไหน ก็ท่องเอาไว่สั่งได้เลย
Waiter: Yes, and what dressing would you prefer?

Wife: Could I have Thousand Island, please?
(Thousand Island เป็น dressing ซึ่งก็คือ น้ำสลัดชนิหนึ่งมีสีออกส้มปนครีม)

Waiter: Yes, ma'am (ma'am = Madame) And what would you like, sir?
ปรกติจะถามภรรยา หรือสุภาพสตรีก่อน ตามด้วย สามี หรือ สุภาพบุรุษ

Husband: What's special (อ่านว่า สะ เป เชี่ยว) today?

Waiter: Today's special set lunch is prawn cocktail as an appetizer, roast beef as an entree and icecream for desert. (อ่านว่า ดิเสิ้ร์ท แปลว่า ของหวาน)

Husband: O.K. I'll have the special (The อ่านว่า เดอะ ยกเว้น ตามหลังด้วย ศัพท์ที่ขึ้นต้นด้วย a e i o u จะอ่านว่า ดิ เช่น The University ดิ ยูนิเว้อซิตี้ เน้นเสียงตรง เว้อ)
(Special ในที่นี้หมายถึง อาหารพิเศษที่ไม่อยู่ในรายการอาหาร มักจะมีราคาถูกกว่าปรกติ Special Set คือ อาหารชุดซึ่งกำหนดชนิดอาหารไว้แล้ว รวมอาหารคาวหวานเข้าด้วยกันต้องสั่งทั้งชุด ในวันนี้มี prawn cocktail (prawn อ่าน พรอน คือ กุ้งตัวไม่ใหญ่นัก)

ขำๆ Mr. Bean at Restaurant
