Greatest Sports Moment in a Movie
On the radio they just mentioned a poll of the greatest sports movie moments, or something like that, that was online but I didn't catch the link. I figured that this was as good a time and place as any to bring this topic up.
What is the greatest sports moment in a movie, in your opinion? For I guess it would have to be when Rudy gets a sack in his last game and gets carried out of the stadium. Some other notables for me are: - the Bad News Bears pouring beers all over each other after they lose the championship - Mickey's last fight in Snatch, Daniel-san giving Billy Zabka the crane kick - Rocky beating Ivan Drago and ending the Cold War - Jennifer Jason Leigh losing 'it' in the little league dugout in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. That last one might not really count

Re: Greatest Sports Moment in a Movie
Damn fine choice!
I also forgot to mention Big Ern McCraken's reaction to winning the World Bowling Championship. That's a pretty classic moment.

Re: Greatest Sports Moment in a Movie
I'd say the greatest sports movie moment was when Conan beat his very first opponent in the fighting pits because if he had lost he would have died.

Re: Greatest Sports Moment in a Movie
Does "Ow my Balls" from Idiocracy count as a sports moment?

Never saw it, but sure!
This is obviously just for shits and giggles. I don't care if you said your favorite moment was when the injure video-Wayne Gretzky in Swingers.

Re: Greatest Sports Moment in a Movie
I love when Rocky beat the Commie. Another great moment was when Bob Barker beat the crap out of Adam Sandler on a golf course.
