RE: Sports Movies: Which are your favorites?
agree with all the hockey movies mentioned....I was very pleasantly surprised by Mystery Alaska.
but c'mon guys...Field of Dreams and The Natural were wicked baseball movies....but again have to agree with above, it'd be a toss up between bull durham and major league for me.....

I saw Baseketball for the first time last night. Totally insignificant, but I couldn't stop myself from laughing. :-)

Mystery, Alaska
Miracle
Slap Shot
Remember the Titans
The Replacements
Rudy
The Longest Yard (both)
Baseketball
Major League (all)
The Mighty Ducks (all)
The Best of the Best
I would love to see autos signed as the character, not the actor. Maybe duals with both (example: have Keanu Reeves sign as himself on one side/half of the card and as Shane Falco on the other side/half) and jersey cards of actual prop jerseys from the movies. (Congratulations! You have received an authentic swatch of a jersey worn by Adam Sandler in The Longest Yard)

Looking at all these "sport" movies reminds me of one of my all-time favourites.
Visionquest (high school wrestling) starring Matthew Modine and Linda Florentino, featuring a cameo of Madonna.

Nice add on the Hurricane. What a great movie and story. Great soundtrack, too.
