Yeah well you did, and now you need to learn to live with the consequences. Mommy and daddy can't bail you out every time you make a mistake in real life, junior.

1. Remember the Titans
2. Rudy
3. Any Given Sunday
4. Leatherheads
5. Waterboy/Friday Night Lights/ Replacements

Actually, Leatherheads is a very under-rated movie. The script was weirdly hilarious.

Also, are you drunk?

Yea I'm a lil buzzin, but that would be my top 5. I'm sure people will mostly have a problem with me putting Comebacks, and Waterboy in there, but I'm a comedy guy, and I love paraody's as well. The Combacks is a hilarious sports parody. I live in Colorado, I like to get stoned and laugh at shite like that.

You forgot Horse Feathers

Also North Dallas Forty -- "When we call it a game, you say it's a business. And when we call it a business, you try to say it's a game."

Good movie, still not sure why it failed at the box office

Not on your list but should be

Everybody's All American
Horsefeathers (Marx brothers play football)
North Dallas Forty
Knute Rockne - All American (with young Ronald Reagan playing George Gipp)
Undefeated (technically a documentary, but will allow it)
Brians Song (just got some dust in my eyes thinking about it)

I was not against the movie if it had been more true to reality. Just hate it when they sugar coat it with Hollywood spin that it give you the Beetus just watching it.
