Some I had to see on there... but aren't.

"Harder They Fall" - The dirty underside of boxing Rod Steiger and Bogart.. wow.

"North Dallas Forty" - A realistic view of the madness that is football at the professional level.

"The Bad News Bears" - Lemmon's solliloquy at the end of the movie made it one for the ages.

"Breaking Away" - Great sports movie, great coming of age movie.

"Downhill Racer" - One of those mystical, moody flicks that makes you think.

"The Hurricane" - Flawed man, great movie.

"City for Conquest" - I think Cagney could lick most lightweights in the ring today.



"Rocky" was right to be left off. It's not a Sports movie it's science fiction it's a fairy tale that's why it's soooo beloved.
