English term or phrase: stick up for the long shots
Scene description:

Seorang anak menggambarkan kehidupannya dan ayahnya, yang tak akan menyerah menghadapi apa saja:

"To stick up for the long shots like us."

Apakah "to stick up for the long shots" itu?

Trims.

Explanation:
Setuju dengan penjelasan Pak Tyas, hanya saja saya kira kurang tepat memadankan 'long shot' sebagai 'keadaan yang tak mungkin dimenangkan'. Memang a long shot itu merupakan usaha yang sulit untuk berhasil tapi bagaimanapun patut dicoba, karena meskipun kecil masih ada kemungkinan untuk berhasil. Jadi maksud kalimat di atas adalah 'terus berusaha meskipun sulit' atau terjemahan yang lebih bebas 'pantang menyerah'.
Semoga memberi sedikit masukan.

bertahan pada keadaan yang tak mungkin dimenangkan


Explanation:
Ini dua expressions: "to stick up for" dan "the long shots".
To stick up for = defend something
The long shots = something unlikely to win
