Now, I know not to expect much from arguably the dumbest show on television...
But how can any greatest sports movies list
NOT have
Raging Bull?
Never expected great sports movies like
Slap Shot or
Hoosiers to get a run.
But no
Raging Bull?
Rocky predictably topped the dodgy list which also included...
Chariots of Fire
Cool Runnings
Jerry Maguire
Million Dollar Baby
Blades of Glory
The Club
A League of their Own

No Wildcats?
No The Longest Yard?
No Caddyshack?
No Kingpin?
No Rollerball?

Take the fall
Act hurt
Get indignant
Sounds like a new game plan for the Socceroos
Had the trilogy on VHS for years, then earlier this year got the trilogy on DVD for $25 then watched them all back to back (sounds like a Sharon Strezlekki hens night).

Some others in the list...
The Karate Kid
White Men Can't Jump
Bend it Like Beckham
Dodgeball
Pretty sure corny-as-hell Remember the Titans got a guernsey as well...

No Happy Gilmore or White Men Can't Jump?
Best scene from a sport movie has to be from Varsity Blues surely?
Why am I posting like Dog_Ger?

2, 1, Balboa, 3, 4.................................................................................................5
Balboa, 3 and 4 are about equal for me though... with balboa just pipping them at the line..
