Not the BEST sports movies... your favorite ones:
1. The Sandlot
2. Happy Gilmore
3. The Big Lebowski (bowling is a sport)
4. Tin Cup
5. Seabiscuit

i mean the best sports movies aren't really about sports. they use the framework to say something else. off the top of my head:
Raging Bull
He Got Game
Kingpin
The Big Lebowski
