    I was about to say the same thing. Starring Pele and Sylvester Stallone a classic!

    Don't forget the longest yard as well. The original -not the remake.

    The next sporting movie I want to see is Senna.

    Good shout. Regardless of what the topic is, Clint Eastwood doesn't know how to make a bad movie. :50:

    Didn't notice you had This Sporting Life in there, voted Raging Bull earlier, but that gets my vote, Loneliness of a Long Distance Runner is a cracker an aw

    I nearly put in Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner, terrific movie.

    This Sporting Life has a fantastic ending, Richard Harris is immense in it. I voted Slap Shot , but all these films are great.

    Remember the Titans, used to watch that everyday before I went to basketball practice.

    "What is pain?!"
    "Windsprints!"
    "Will you ever quit?!"
    "NO! We want some more, we want some more!"

    Ahh Denzel :52:
