You covered all my favorite movies (baseball). I remember going to the real Field of Dreams with my dad and having a catch in the outfield and playing in the corn with my sister. I think my pops and I are going to try to take a roadtrip there again this summer.
I watch Bull Durham the day before opening day every year. I believe in the church of baseball...

Your "coolness" just moved up a notch or two.

always thought this was way underrated. Always loved it. Maybe because I am a hoops guy but thought this movie really nailed alot of the stereotypes and such. Can't turn this one off.
And to the guy who said Youngblood - always enjoyed that movie - probably because always had a little thing for Cynthia Gibb.
10. Slapshot gotta give the hockey love on this list.
9. Jerry McGuire sometimes i think that cameron crowe can do no wrong.
8. Rocky IV it's so over the top with capitalism v. communism. ivan drago is one of the greatest villains i've ever seen in a movie.
7. Major League it's just an incredibly fun ride
6. Field of Dreams the only thing keeping this from being higher? the worst toss of a baseball in dramatic movie history.
5. Rocky Balboa only mr stallone could make this movie work. the absence of adrian, the depression of paulie... everything contributes to the beast inside mr balboa, and he gets his last chance to let it out.
4. Rudy it's too feel-good to not rank this high on the list
3. The Rocket a movie about the greatest hockey player of the golden age? fuck yeah
2. The Mighty Ducks if this isn't near the top of your list, then you have no soul
1. Rocky maybe it's because i've watched this move three times in the past month, but damn, sly can really write an enthralling movie.
i'm positive that my choices won't be among the popular majority, but i make no apologies.

I'll mention two that have not been listed yet, I believe ...
Victory - Best of both worlds ... war flick and a sports flick. Tell me the scene where Max Von Sydow has the Pele goal going through his head over and over then he stands up and cheers isn't fantastic. I dare you.
61* - Say what you want about Billy Crystal, or the Yankees ... I thought this was a great flick. Thomas Jane did a great job playing Mickey Mantle.

Hoosiers was just on. Gives me the chills every time.
Yeah, can't get enough of it. Hadn't watched it in years so I went on Amazon to buy it. Now that I live in Ireland I bought it under the title "Best Shot"! I guess the Europeans don't know wtf a hoosier is, hell, most Americans probably don't. Anyway, watched it just the other night as well, and yes......chills.

No one really knows what a Hoosier is, and I'm from Indiana.
Does No Holds Barred starring Hulk Hogan count? J/k. The Wrestler was a good flick though. And what about the Karate Kid(original) does that count as a sports movie? Bloodsport must have been mentioned by now. There's a new baseball movie coming out soon starring Brad Pitt and Philip Seymour Hoffman. Looks like it might be a "hit", lol

Don't know if it's been mentioned and you guys will probably disagree but I used to watch Kickboxer all the time when I was a little girl. I loved the Monkey Man.
So that's a vote for Kickboxer.
