Minus #8 thats a fine list...but i'd try to find a spot for Breaking Away and Days of Thunder but the biggest sin is not listing Bull Durham at all...and Tin Cup
Major league, the replacements, kingpin, comedies probably don't stand a chance
Rush - Friday Night Lights - Major League
Would take those over - Happy, League of their own - The Sandlot

Surprised no one has brought up North Dallas Forty. Also agree that Bull Durham belongs in a top ten.
Brian’s Song deserves to be in the top 10.
I think....its impossible to stop at 10. Therefore this list is null and void.
Personally I really like League of Their Own, minus Rosie O"Donnell. Adam Sandler is annoying, so take Happy Gilmore out and put Caddy Shack in. Slap Shot is great as well. Raging Bull is a pretty well known boxing movie, but I have never seen it.
Omitting both Bloodsport and No Holds Barred is embarrassing.
Caddyshack definitely over Happy Gilmore. Classic.
Well of course , but I also prefer true stories should be rated over fancy sports movies.
My opinion.
Remember the Titans
We are Marshall
Brian’s Song
Hoosiers
The Express
Rudy
My All American
The Hurricane
The Fighter
Pride of the Yankees
Knute Rockne All American
The Wrestler
Cool Runnings
Ford vs Ferrari
The Iron Claw
Chariots of Fire
42
McFarland USA
In fairness, they both deserve to be in the discussion
The Sandlot and The Goonies have an huge nastalgia impact on me. So I get why The Sandlot is in the list.
If I had to make my Top 10 it would be
Remember the Titans
White Men Can't Jump
Major League
Caddyshack
Bull Durham
The Sandlot
Pride of the Yankees (Lou Gehrig Story)
Edit: Rudy (I liked it more than Miracle)
The Natural
A League of Their Own
Bad News Bears - funnier today than it was originally given how un-PC it is in today's world.

Damn, beat me to it. Walter Matthau just slamming beers the whole movie.
List is crap without Dodgeball....
Yeah. If you list Days of Thunder, then you'd have to list Talladega Nights... Help me Tom Cruise.. Yeah, that just happened.I'm with you on Bull Durham but Days of Thunder was kinda gay.
Greatest Game ever played is best serious golf movie.
Caffyshack for comedy.
Tin cup blows. Chick flick masquerading as a golf movie
And Bull Durham might be the same for baseball.

The Blindside and Variety Blues both excellent movies
Agree. ... Kilmer's famous lines:

My star quarterback is dragging his leg around, because of you.
