Nope, the best sports movie was "Ed," a baseball-playing chimp starring Matt LeBlanc. I have it on Blu Ray and watch it everyday!!

It was a total libfest, and somewhat sacrilegious in places, but yeah, I loved the movie. I've watched it several times. And not just because I have a thing for Rene.

"Juuuuuuust a bit outside!"

"Hey bartender, Jobu needs a refil!"

"Hats for bats!"

Veghead!

I’m pretty fond of Miracle actually, but I do love Major League and Slapshot.

Field of Dreams turned 25 this year as well.

Much better film....IMHO
