Top 10 Sports movies of all time!

A friend of mine sent me this list of the top 10 sports movies of all time:
Top Ten Sports Movies of All Time

I thought it was pretty good. Although I am bummed he left Better off Dead off of this list. Somebody is obviously not a skier!

So what do you think of it?

12ths Top 10

Rocky
Rudy
Breaking Away
The Longest Yard
Hoosiers
Remember The Titans
The Natural
Any Given Sunday (Rocky II shares this spot)
Bad News Bears
Jerry McGuire


I wouldn't put Raging Bull in the sports category...more like docu-drama.

Any Given Sunday was a poorly-done semi rip-off of Major League . . . which should be on this list instead of Slapshot (Major League that is, not AGS).

I agree with you on the production value of AGS, but I liked all the sub-plots, the cast, and Pacino's locker room speech was kick ass.

Hope your friend didn't actually make that list because it's awful.

As others have already said where are Hoosiers, Rudy and The Natural.

Leaving off one of those titles would be barely acceptable. Leaving off all three is embarrassing to the author of the list.

Eight Men Out?
Breaking Away?

Those two choices are laughable and both are in the top five.

and I tend to agree with your view on the topic. What about Remember the Titans?
