Victory is a great movie, even with Stallone.

theres a movie with ben affleck, matt damon, and brendan fraser about a Jewish football player.. waht is the title?
also there is a movie about a inmates versus guards soccer game akin to the longest yard? What was its title./

School Ties is the name of the 1st movie.

I believe Mean Machine is the 2nd movie you were referencing.

dude thats awesome.. I was trying to remember Mean Machine for 5 years... lol though I never did any research thanks

Field of Dreams - Some of the best lines, and the one line that chokes this dude up every single time he watches it.

"Hey... Dad? You wanna have a catch?"


Slapshot - Met the Hanson Bros at a Pros vs. Prospects game last year.. they are still the bomb after all these years.

"How about it tonight, guys? Old time hockey?"

And who can't help themselves from laughing hysterically when Reggie Dunlop tells that McCambridge lady what he thinks of her son, lmao.... great movie.


Honorable mentions,

The Natural, Bad New Bears (Original), Rocky, Hoosiers, Bull Durham, Caddyshack.

Major League, hands down!

Give 'em the heater...

Great pick. Most people don't give it much credit, but it's a really good (albeit sad) movie.
As a former Marshall student, it was pretty incredible seeing how well they shot this movie to capture everything that went on during that time.

*fun fact*
The scene where the firetrucks are racing down the street heading to the crash is right where our venue is.

That's another great movie too. The commentators in that movie are just freakin' hilarious!

For sheer comedy, favorite one is Major League, all of them. How do you not love Bob Uecker? Just too many lines to pick out a fave, I mean every line was a zinger. Like when Sheen gives up the Slam in the season opener then hits the next guy, " Whoa, bout' time, it's 8-0." As for a non-comedy, Pride of the Yankees. Gary Cooper was just awesome.

Remember the Titans

Interesting thread.....

My favorites include
Rocky I-IV
Karate Kid
The Sandlot
Little Giants
Major Leauge
Slapshot
Hoosiers
Remember The Titans
Talladega Nights (although I am on the fence on whether NASCAR is really a sport)
The Wrestler (is wrestling still considered a sport?)
Friday Night Lights (even better TV show)
Best of The Best
Victory

just to name a few. I am not a huge baseball fan so all the Kevin Costner movies did not do it for me. I also do not consider golf a sport so Caddyshack did not make my list for sport movies although it is in my top 10 comedies of all time.

The Natural, Field of Dreams and Rocky Balboa.

mainly because it's what i grew up with, but the mighty ducks 1-3
invincible with marky-mark
and happy gilmour with adam sandler
