I heard you had writer's block.

Hi.

Don't.

What? I won't bite,

this time.

Merry Christmas.

Come on, sands.

Let's go. Let's go.

Man, that b*tch is crazy.

But she is fine as hell.

I so dodged a bullet.

Okay.

Right?

I mean, that could have...

A shot to the head.

Are you all good on drinks?

Hey!

Big L, Big L, hanging

up the cleats, huh?

What's next for you? Broadcast

booth, coaching, business venture?

Damn, nigga,

are you writing a book?

That's a good idea.

No. Hey, come on,

you know... A book!

Non-fiction

is not my thing.

Besides, you could get any

biographer you wanted, right?

Yeah, but that

doesn't interest me.

People only know what

I want them to know.

Well, that's what they do. You

can't blame them, you're a star.

Well, everybody's

got a job to do.

As long as we stick to

football, we're straight.

Hello, hello!

Hey!

Merry Christmas!

Thanks for coming.

Robyn, stop it.

I'm just saying, Jordan's good

people, you should get to know her.

What's to know? She's career-obsessed

and lives on her BlackBerry.

True, but she's not some ideal

from a piece of fiction.

Julian.

Brian. Nice to meet you.

Good to see you again, Harper.

Now, her man, on the

other hand, is iconic.

Mmm. If I went that way,

that's what I'd get.

A tall, vanilla swagger latte.

I like, I like, I like.

What did...

Hi, baby!

Busted!

What's wrong with you, man?

Not now, Quentin.

Not now.

No, dude, you've

been tripping all night.

Don't...

Come here. Come here!

Hey, Candace!

You look gorgeous.

Thank you, girl.

Thank you so much.

Hi.

Hi, Robyn. How are you?

Hi, Jordan.

How's it going in there?

It's going good, no complaints.

That is going to be a big baby.

I mean, beautiful baby.

Everyone?

I can't tell you

how good it is to have

all of us under

the same roof again.

And Brian, welcome.

Thank you for having me.

I wish it could be

for the whole weekend.

Oh. Where are

you guys headed?

Oh. It's just him.

Oh.

My family's got

a place up in Vermont,

so we always get together

this time of year.

Ski, hang out by the

fireplace, stuff like that.

That sounds really nice.

Yeah, the snow and I just don't

really get along, do we?

Could have fooled me.

Ah!

And Brian and I are going to

Hawaii the day after Christmas.

Oh, you have to stay at the Four

Seasons in Maui. Honeymoon suite.

And which honeymoon was that?

My next one.

So, Lance, y'all making

the playoffs this year or what?

Yeah, that Atlanta

D is pretty tough.

It is tough, but we will

definitely make the playoffs.

Okay, all right.

And what about

that rushing record?

How many more

yards is it to go?

Really? We're gonna talk

about football all night?
