    Yeah. I think it might be the best basketball movie ever, but I think Hoosiers is too tear-jerky.

    Question for the night: What's the best movie for each of the following sports?

    Baseball:
    Basketball:
    Football:
    Hockey:
    Golf:
    Tennis:
    Bobsledding:
    Boxing:

    Documentaries don't count (When We Were Kings is awesome).

    I know my answers, post them in a few minutes.

    Yeah, It's sickening. He hasn't evolved a wit since the show started. Sad.

    I've been suffering from ennui all day. I feel French.
    Woody is always entertaing. he was the only real reason I watched Cheers.

    Baseball: Bull Durham. Honorable mention to Eight Men Out. Just behind are The Natural, Field of Dreams, and Major League. The original Bad News Bears deserves mention behind those.
    Basketball: White Men Can't Jump. Hoosiers is too fucking saccharine. Coach Carter is underrated.
    Football: The Longest Yard (the original). All the Right Moves is probably second but Friday Night Lights is close. Any Given Sunday is pretty good but basically a workmanlike movie without a heart. Rudy is overrated, as is Brian's Song. Jerry Maguire isn't really about football.
    Hockey: If you consider Strange Brew to be a hockey movie, it wins; otherwise Slapshot. Miracle and Mystery, Alaska are both good.
    Golf: Billy Madison beats out Tin Cup. Caddyshack is good, but probably the most overrated comedy of all time.
    Tennis: There isn't one. The original Sabrina is good but tennis is ancillary, not the focus.
    Bobsledding: Cool Runnings.
    Boxing: Rocky.

    Good pick. I had Rocky, but I was wrong; Raging Bull is better.

    In fact, Raging Bull might be the best sports movie ever. I'd have to think about it.

    In addition to making the obvious change to Happy Gilmore, I add A League of Their Own to Honorable mentions for baseball.

    And I replace Rocky with Raging Bull, moving Rocky to honorable mention for boxing.

    You already did your duty by bitch-slapping me with Raging Bull.

    Raging Bull is with Robert Dinero, based on Rock Marciano's career. It's fucking epic, to steal a word from SJ. The ring scenes are amazing. Rent it some night Nikki, you won't regret it.

    I have like at least 3 honorable mentions for each category but I didn't feel like stating them, I can though.

    I know what it is but I never had any interest in seeing it. I'm sure I'll see it eventually.

    It was the first boxing movie to pop up in my mind. Didn't even consider Rocky, which was an excellent movie too by the by.

    If you think they deserve mention, feel free (especially if nobody's talked about them yet).

    Dinero never ceases to amaze me. Did you see Awakenings? Robin Williams also gave a fine performance in that movie.

    Martin Scorsese in his prime directing Robert Deniro in his prime. It's pretty phenomenal.

    (But it's about Jake Lamotta's career, not Marciano's.)
