ESPN put out the list of best sports movies ever.

http://espn.go.com/page2/movies/s/top20/fulllist.html

Bull Durham #1? Maybe. Let's see what you think. Will do 4 brackets (Football, Baseball, Comedy, Other). Top 2 from each bracket make the final 8 next week.

Here are the baseball movies. Feel free to write in if you want.

	Eight Men Out. Nothing else comes close. And why wasn't Bad News Bears considered a comedy?

	Bad News Bears hands down. "Hey Lupus, maybe if you wiped your nose once in a while, people wouldn't give you so much crud."

	And why wasn't Bad News Bears considered a comedy? I agree. However, I ran out of spots on the comedy one. Was either put Major League here or Bad News Bears. Is it wrong to say that Tatum O'Neal was hot in Bad News Bears? I mean, she did play a prostitute in her previous movie.

	Can't vote, 61 is not on your list. Came up with the idea for the threads last night and, while looking, did not see 61 mentioned in the list of 25 greatest sports movies, it was not on ESPNs top 20, and was not in the list of top 10 baseball movies I looked at. Oh well.... You mean 61*. Great movie. I should not have missed that one.

	I picked BNB (the Original) because I couldn't find the button to obliterate the choice of that God awful Kevin Costner movie. And before you ask which God awful Kevin Costner movie because they're all God awful, I'm talking about the cornfield one.

	Maybe not one of the best, but the Sandlot is definitely up there for me.

	Sandlot was good. 61 was good. Lot's of good movies. Sorry folks but Bad News Bears got old after awhile. It was good though. I still like watching The Natural. A sucker for those happy endings and the drama of the exploding lights.

	After the first day, looks like the Bad News Bears and Field of Dreams are in the lead. Just trying to come up with something to say to bump this back to page 1

	I wonder why all the chick flick lovers (field of dreams) have nothing to say? I bet their wives/girlfriends won't let them.
