Tin Cup has to be #1.

Also, the varsity blues locker room speech about "let's be heroes"... that or the whip cream bikini.

Wouldn't expect anyone else to put either (or both) of these in their top 5 but they were two of the most impactful that I have ever seen.

If you have Napolean Dynamite in here then it's either the dance off ( dance is a sport! ) or the tetherball match.

Entire Bull Durham and Major League qualify! Love the conference on the mound in Bull Durham......"Jose needs a live chicken....rooster is it........"

Another underappreciated scene in Bull Durham is when the ladies are listening to the game on the radio and there is an argument about a play at the plate, and Costner gets ejected. The announcer says "...used a no-no word..." and Milly goes "Must have called him a c0ck$..er" Awesome!!

Sports is the most screwed up genre in all of movie-dom.

So many bad sports movies in all sports: Football - The Blind Side, Remember the Titans; Basketball - Glory Road, Blue Chips; Hockey - anything other than Slapshot and Miracle; Baseball - countless, old (Babe Ruth Story) and new (Trouble with the Curve); Golf - Caddyshack II; Boxing - Lots of Rocky's in here. Special mention for Clint Eastwood's "Invictus," easily the strangest movie about rugby.

Strange that bowling would have two of the best: Big Lebowski and Kingpin.

Any others?

Caddyshack II may be the worst movie of all time.
Do not go gentle into that good night, Old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
