I agree....except I think "Real" men are the ones who aren't ashamed to cry whereas the macho pig ones aren't really men at all. An example I like to use is from the movie "Dumb & Dumber" where the moron trucker "Sea Bass" is later exposed as gay :D

Hey now Bobby...if the big muscular guys rolling around in tights can pretend to be a sport, why not "Karate" ;)

Ha ha! Good one RockandRollFan. :D
In that case I should have put a word in for that film atrocity known as 'No Holds Barred' (the one where Hulk Hogan fights a nutcase called Zeus). ;D

I voted Bull Durham, but:
Kenny and RnRFan are on to something. ;)
1. Brian's Song
-- one of the best made for television movies (along with "Duel").
2. Rocky
3. Breaking Away (would this one count as a sports movie?)
4. Heaven Can Wait
There are not too many good sports movies. There are others that all supposed to be good but I just haven't seen them.
