I suppose this should go in Entertainment (I didn't see a thread about this in either place), but I figured people who frequent Sports Talk would be more into this thread...

I have to go with Field of Dreams and Rudy.

and I have to admit, when Doc. crosses over the strip of rocks, and Rudy finally gets his acceptance letter, I still get choked up.

I like a ton of sports movies, but they all come in far, far behind Field of Dreams, which, as we all know, is the best sports movie ever made.

If we can include some random-ass hockey highlight tapes (which I actually own), we should include each and every incarnation of Don Cherry's Rock 'em Sock 'em Hockey, tapes that include such fantastic segments as "Gordie's Favorites," a collection of highly illegal elbows.

8/2/2006 1:29:30 AM

if we're gonna do that then lemme also nominate Dorf Goes Fishing and Dorf Does Golf

One of the few movies where it's okay for a grown man to cry like a little girl who lost her dolly.
