1. Bull Durham
2. Major League
3. For the Love of the Game

Honorable Mentions
1. Slapshot
2. Necessary Roughness
3. Miracle
4. 61*
5. Mystery Alaska
6. The Waterboy
7. Happy Gimore

I think some of the more serious sport movies are better even though I love the comedies.

I heard "Cobb" was a good movie but haven't seen it.

For the wrestlers I knew, they liked "Vision Quest" the best. Hockey guys liked "Youngblood"
