It definitely got the Hollywood treatment and is about as realistic as Cool Runnings and Remember the Titans, but its really no different than most biopic movies. I think the problem people have with it is that Rudy tried to make money off of it by becoming a motivational speaker. I think people overreact to it though. Though some things were embellished for dramatic effect, his story is still a good underdog story.

Also, lots of mine are not great movies, rather stories I like.

Mystery, Alaska
Major League II
Blue Chips
The Program
D2: Mighty Ducks
Tin Cup
Glory Road
Secretariat
Hoosiers
Little Big League

Yes, I am a 90's kid.

Really wanted to put Karate Kid in but nostalgia won out. Let's call it #11.

A League Of Their Own has become my favorite, though I skip the bookends and the song now. Moneyball is probably my #2.

Been meaning to watch that one but never got around to it. Next time I'm "surfing" I'll look for it.

Recent movie: we watched Fighting with my Family over the weekend and my whole family liked it. Not really top 10 but a really fun movie.

He is also an ******* in real life.

Has anyone said The Fighter, with Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale? Bale especially is fantastic. And the movie stays close enough to the real story. Probably my 3rd favorite boxing movie after Rocky II and Cinderella Man.

Speaking of boxing movies I tried watching Raging Bull. Got about halfway through. Just didn't care for it.

Does Basketball Diaries count? One of my faves not mentioned here.

All the Right Moves? Really liked that one.

I watched every season of Coach, and was a fan of the series.

I have an idea...Let's all keep adding sports movies.

On a day or 2 compile all entries, then do a 'pick 10' weighted survey with 10 points going to each person's favorite down to 1 for 10th favorite and use that to develop a best sports movies bracket contest since, well, this is March.
