Bad news bears 1970s version

Honestly I like sports documentaries more than movies. 

Do you like that documentary about 1972 olympic games

Fact: Ballpark scenes for Major League II were filmed in Baltimore stadiums.   Camden Yards was the Indians home field and Memeorial Stadium was used for the visiting teams park,and was home to the last baseball team to play there, the O's AA Affiliate Bowie Baysox which played there until there stadium there was ready.

I like the directors version of Hoosiers with the actual game between Milan and South Bend Central.   Also like MIghty Macs about the Immaculatta Women's Basketball team which was the first power house in the sport

Since you've asked, my favorite sports movie is Slap Shot; I can recall parts of this movie to anyone, and the Hanson Brothers stole the show!

Cinderella man. Excellent boxing and historical flick 

Also based on a true story, unlike the Rocky series.

Rocky was actually inspired by a real fighter,  but Obviously that's where the truth of the movie ends.

Rocky had the worst defense I've ever seen.

Rocky would totally lose to Mike Tyson, Rocky was just an actor.

About Invincible, they forget that Vince Papele already had already played professional football in the World Football League for the Philadelphia Bell in the mid 1970s.

There are so many good sports movies. One recently that I enjoyed was "Trouble with the Curve."

1989 Field of Dreams, no sex, no violence, and rare cursing.

So you hate it?
