My teenaged girls now loathe Adrien Brody, having no idea who he is.

'If you're gonna be all cocky on stage, say something at least interesting or funny,'   'get lost Dude.'

I was reading during this but I guess he smuggly kept going on and on about nothing.  The Get Lost Dude got my attention.

I don't care for the stuffed fake gopher but Dangerfield & Murry were funny, IMO
Comedy ages poorly, I dont love Animal House, but its fine.  I love Airplane and Stripes from that same era.  I just dont find Caddyshack funny beyond a couple of quotes

The upside is this encouraged me to watch Airplane, which is my favorite guilty pleasure movie

I'm rewatching the Lincoln Lawyer series on NF.  I enjoy it.  The original book is really good I think, great author.

I like "crime series", my wife watches Perry Mason a lot.

Sandlot and Remember the Titans of those, but my Other vote is Major League

That is correct.

I mentioned to a co-worker that I cut off my Youtube TV when the college football season ended and she laughed.  I think she thought I was joking. 
Shame on her.

We've done that since 2018 when we first cut the cord.  Realized we literally watch nothing on TV except football.  

I kind of miss college baseball but mostly when it comes to the post season.  Wife used to watch the tennis Opens but she's been fine without it.  

If it were up to me I'd quit as soon as cfb was done, but she insists on keeping it on through the Superbowl 'cuz that weirdo is into NFL.

Rocky.

I think. Great sports story that isn't about winning, it's about growing through the struggle, and being the best you can be--not necessarily the best.

Lots of great sports movies. I loved Miracle, but you know the ending before you sit down to watch it. Hoosiers wasn't on the list above. Great movie. RIP, Gene.

Slap Shot is the beer leaguer's defining hockey movie. I enjoyed Bend It Like Beckham, but it's not very polished, and--like many of these--is a little dated.

Bull Durham is probably my favorite baseball movie--and deserves a nod in the overall category.

I, Tonya, anyone? I thought it was really well done. But it's a mocumentary of sorts, not an original story.

Hoop Dreams gets a nod--but I haven't seen it since (1994?). Not sure if it holds up. And similar to I, Tonya, it's not an original story--although both get the viewer to see a different perspective.

Tip of the cap to Talladega Nights.

Bull Durham definitely my favorite baseball movie, although I do enjoy Major League as well.

No love for Rudy?  Not my cup of tea, but seems to be pretty popular.
