We've Got Spirit is the ninth episode of the Freaks and Geeks TV series. It was written by Mike White and directed by Danny Leiner. The episode first aired on January 24, 2000.
Sam replaces the previous school mascot, hoping to impress Cindy and getting her to be his girlfriend. Meanwhile, Daniel, Ken, and Kim, suddenly become the basketball team's most rabid fans, following a series of run-ins with the jocks clique from William McKinley High School's rival school, Lincoln High.
•When the cast reunited at PaleyFest 2011, Busy Philipps revealed that James Franco was told, unbeknown to her and the episode's director, Danny Leiner, that his character, Daniel, had been abused by his father, and therefore, had intimacy issues. The second it came to shooting a scene, where the characters get hit by water balloons, run after a car, and Philipps' character gives Daniel a smack on the arm and says 'dammit, Daniel, do something!', Franco, much to everyone's surprise, reacted much harder than anyone expected him to and responded back by saying 'don't you fucking ever touch me' and then grabbed Philipps' arms and threw her to the ground.
•There is a father using a hand held VHS camcorder during the basketball game, but the handheld video camcorder wouldn't be introduced until the mid-1980s.
Further to the regular cast members appearing in all the episodes, the present episode also has the following recurring cast and guest stars:
