Greatest Sports Moment in a Movie
 
On the radio they just mentioned a poll of the greatest sports movie moments, or something like that, that was online but I didn't catch the link. I figured that this was as good a time and place as any to bring this topic up.

What is the greatest sports moment in a movie, in your opinion?

For I guess it would have to be when Rudy gets a sack in his last game and gets carried out of the stadium.

Some other notables for me are:
- the Bad News Bears pouring beers all over each other after they lose the championship
- Mickey's last fight in Snatch, Daniel-san giving Billy Zabka the crane kick
- Rocky beating Ivan Drago and ending the Cold War
- Jennifer Jason Leigh losing 'it' in the little league dugout in Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

That last one might not really count

[QUOTE=GhettoDogAllStars;297132]The Triple Lindy.[/QUOTE]Damn fine choice!

I also forgot to mention Big Ern McCraken's reaction to winning the World Bowling Championship. That's a pretty classic moment.

I'd say the greatest sports movie moment was when Conan beat his very first opponent in the fighting pits because if he had lost he would have died.

Does "Ow my Balls" from Idiocracy count as a sports moment?

I love when Rocky beat the Commie. Another great moment was when Bob Barker beat the crap out of Adam Sandler on a golf course.

It's not really a sports moment. But it is Caddyshack.

I still use that last line all the time.

it has to be the game winning shot at the buzzer when "pee wee" throws the basketball behind him out of pure fear as the opposing players run towards him.

porky's or porky's revenge, i can't remember which one.

My Pops went to TC Williams during all of that...he said Coach Yost hated him for having long hair! He also said none of the games were as close as portrayed, and for some reason the star running back was completely omitted from the game. Still a good movie.

How about Robin Williams game winning TD catch in "The Best of Times", or for that matter excellent QB play of Kurt Russell in the same movie.

Or how about Scott Bakula's game winning TD pass in "Necessary Roughness".

Oh wait I got it, the Greatest Sports Moment in a Movie is when Billy Cole, from "The Last Boy Scout" get's his TD gangsta style by pulling a gun out and paving the way for himself to the endzone, then taking care of business when he gets there.

Romeo Must Die. When I was like 9 or 10 and super scrawny, I'd pretend I was playing football with the older neighborhood boys but I'd pull all sorts of karate moves on them.
