American sports may be awful, but films about American sports are the ****

Just watched Moneyball which has left me both inspired and entertained

What others should I check out? Got Rudy, Hoosiers and Miracle downloading as we speak, should I waive my rule about watching Kevin Costner movies and download a bit of Field of Dreams or Bull Durham?? Tin Cup perhaps?

[Chief Arrowhead]

Yes, must see both. Tin Cup is fair.

For baseball, The Natural is a must see. For comic relief, Slap Shot. Old Time Hockey, like Eddie Shore!

Major League is also very good. One more, football related, Friday Night Lights.

Hoosiers is the best of the bunch, imo. Hackman!

and of course the book puts both of the movies to shame.

The only thing better, was being their in person that year, which many of us where lucky enough to be http://www.awimb.com/images/smiley_icons/cloudnine.gif

I guess you've seen Any Given Sunday already, if not that also should be on your list.
