The 25 Best Sports Movies not named The Big Lebowski

The 25 Best Sports Movies not named The Big Lebowski

Some other non-Lebowski films not on the list, all of which are way better than The Color of Money, Bend it Like Beckham, or Talladega Nights: (although I would support The Color of Money if you make it a joint entry with The Hustler)

Obviously the author is not a hockey fan, having passed on:

Slap Shot, the best hockey comedy

Miracle, the best hockey drama

And I suppose he's not a pro football fan either. He got two films about amateur football, Rudy and Remember the Titans, on the list, but left off:

Brian's Song. More men have gotten a wee bit of dust in their eye from this film than any other film except Rudy.

Jerry Maguire.

Four one-on-one combat films way better than A League of Their Own or White Men Can't Jump or Bend it Like Beckham:

Warrior

Cinderella Man

The Fighter

The Karate Kid

In addition, Soul Surfer, Happy Gilmore and He Got Game are better than at least five films on the list.
