    Sandlot
    Hoosiers
    Remember the Titans

    And Varsity Blues for nothing other than implanting the idea of whipped cream bikinis into my head!

    A League of Their Own is hands down my favorite movie of all time. I've seen it a million times, and the scene where she drops the ball and the umpire yells safe I STILL get goosebumps.

    And also because it's hilarious. "You think there are people in this world who haven't seen your bossoms?"

    When I was married years ago my step-kids watched every air-bud movie ever made.

    What is the soccer game that has Mike Ditka in it?

    The longest yard and Radio were enjoyable for different reasons too...

    It Happens Every Spring (1949). Not realistic, but a fun baseball film. Similar to the original Angels in the Outfield in terms of fantasy.

    Goon (2011) was a great hockey movie.

    The 1974 film The Longest Yard was fun.

    If we're counting horse racing as a sport, the Sea Biscuit.

    Remember the Titans
    Blindside

    I'm a sucker for tearjerkers and true stories :]

    Also Whip It. And I second (third, fourth?) Sandlot. When I was a kid I probably watched Angels in the Outfield at least 100 times.

    "Place at the table baby!"

    This is definitely on my list! I also concur with The Sandlot, The Blindside, A League of Their Own and Rookie of the Year!
