That's an awful list. Some of the best sports movies of all time are grievously absent :nonod:

"Breaking Away" might be a decent movie, but one of the best sports movies ever? Come on! Likewise, "Horse Feathers"? And as others have already expressed, it's pretty thin to define "Caddyshack" as a sports movie.

"Slap Shot", "Rocky", "Eight Men Out", "Bull Durham" and "Raging Bull" are worthy of mention, but overall the list is crap.

Among the movies not mentioned here that I think have to at least be considered in any "best sports movie list"...

- Remember the Titans

- The Longest Yard (original)

- Major League

- Rudy

- Field of Dreams

- Brian's Song

- North Dallas Forty

- A League of Their Own

- The Bad News Bears (original)

- Chariots of Fire

- Pride of the Yankees

- The Mighty Ducks

- Varsity Blues

- Invincible

- Hoosiers

- Miracle

I like "Jerry Maguire" and "The Sandlot", but as big a role as sports played in both, I'm not absolutely sure I'd classify either as a sports movie using the criteria KK set forth (pretty good definition)

Others might mention "Cinderella Man", "Tin Cup", "The Natural", "The Hustler" (or "The Color of Money"), "61*", "Ali" "Seabiscuit", "Cobb" or the "Bingo Long" movie from the list. I can't judge these because I haven't seen them.

Breaking Away at # 2 shows that list is crap.
