Like BYUheaven said above...how many desperate ways can this movie try to pull at your heart strings?

Greatest single sports movie of all time? And why?

Rudy, period!

PickleButton

Sounds graphic. Is that a sequel?

DodgeBall. Christine Taylor kisses a girl.

Hoosiers. It's the only sports movie that has made me cry.

zonacougar

BYUheaven

8/21/14 9:57am

and the sports for the most part look realistic

BYUheaven

All of the Hickory team actors played high school basketball...

What about Brian's Song? Did that make you cry?

jdub

8/21/14 9:57am

My advice: have some Kleenex handy.

Bull Durham

Bull Durham would be if Tim Robbins was remotely athletic

Rocky

One of my all-time favorite movies.

Coug Eastwood

8/21/14 9:50am

Remember the Titans is good

jonnnylingo

8/21/14 9:48am

cringe-worthy at times.

The Y's Insider

8/21/14 9:57am

That movie tries so hard to run through every emotion possible

BYUheaven

8/21/14 10:00am

Super cheesy. Acrobatic football scenes. Disney channel-ish.

The Y's Insider

8/21/14 10:02am

Acrobatic football scenes?

Two Paul Lasike blocks = impossible acrobatic ending.

southernfriedcougar

8/21/14 10:38am

IIRC there was a lot worse in other scenes. Flips, twists, etc.

scenes with Paul Giamatti are great

BYUheaven

BigYfan

8/21/14 10:06am

Something with drama, suspense, under-dog, and romance!

PapaBill

8/21/14 10:05am

Tin Cup has to be in the conversation.

PlanoCougar

8/21/14 10:05am

Miracle

Stay Puft

8/21/14 10:05am

Warrior is probably my favorite.

PlanoCougar

8/21/14 10:06am

that was very good...one of the best of the 'new' films.

zonacougar

8/21/14 10:08am

Sorry, byujacob, didn't notice you posted this already. But I agree with you.

Just don't read the book

BYUnerd

8/21/14 10:17am

I've never read it, but I know the ending is quite different.

Raging Bull

Rocky IV, Warrior, Miracle, Field of Dreams, & Remember the Titans are my Top 5
