Go Blue · 05-20-2008, 08:14 PM

Here are 20 choices...I think I covered the best of the best.

Go Blue · 05-20-2008, 08:23 PM

I went with Pacino and Foxx on this one.

dad2erin · 05-20-2008, 08:23 PM

Replacements over all not a good movie but it just makes me laugh and I get stuck watching everytime I see it on cable. Faverau is awesome.

T-Town Oil · 05-20-2008, 08:25 PM

i could watch "little giants" everyday for a month and still enjoy it. great light-hearted flick.

Bageara · 05-20-2008, 08:31 PM

Argh! when you said football i thought you ment football.I forgot you call it soccer over there. I cant vote coz ive only heard of a few of them

Blu-Runner · 05-20-2008, 08:49 PM

Had to go with Titans. But Rudy, Varisty Blues, Friday Night Lights, Little Giants and the Longest Yard are all great contenders.

tacoreed · 05-20-2008, 08:53 PM

The original Brian's Song (Billy Dee Williams, James Caan), then Neccesary Roughness. Football is king!

Nice breakdown!

GreenScar · 05-22-2008, 05:23 AM

Lots of good movies there. I liked Any Given Sunday best.

Bryan316 · 05-22-2008, 04:23 PM

Any Given Sunday for me, though Necessary Roughness is a close second. I think it has to do with most of the film being shot on my University's campus.

JERRY MAGUIRE was a great football movie! It is as much a football movie as Field of Dreams was a baseball movie.

wnicholas76 · 05-26-2008, 09:57 PM

Favorite football movie: Any Given Sunday.

Reason: Al Pacino and an all-star cast of (literally) hundreds. What more could anyone ask for in a football movie?!

Quad · 05-27-2008, 02:09 AM

It would be between The Longest Yard and North Dallas Forty...

“Every time I call it a business you call it a game and every time I call it a game you call it a business.”

I would also add Paper Lion to the list.
