Top 25 Worst Sports Movies

Rudy!? Really? Awful?

 

"Dis is da most bootiful sight dese eyes have evah seen!"

Yeah, Rudy pretty much blew goats.

 

Best of the series? Not even close. Each movie got progressively worse than the last.

THIS was in Rocky IV:

 

Deathrace 2000, anyone? Or is that one of those movies which was supposed to suck as a B-movie, so it ended up being really, really good? And Major League III should not be on this list. Not even the worst in the series.

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PAULIE

 

Ok, Ok the robot totally sucked.
But come on the training montage? Drago beating Apollo to death? The press conference "I'm the unsilent majority Big mouth!" ...
Yes, Rocky IV was the best followed by III.

 

Sir,

I hope that we do not ever meet in person, for now I must swear to be your eternal, mortal enemy.

The Cutting Edge and For Love of the Game would like to step up as challengers.

 

1. Rudy

 

Wife loves The Cutting Edge - and its sequel. Absolute shite. As was Rudy.

 

Everybody's Hero.

Animated shit with an annoying kid who actually calls himself Yankee Irving. Said annoying kid goes on the road with a talking baseball to recover Babe Ruth's bat, which was stolen during the World Series. The kid somehow ends up pinch hitting and hitting a little league home run (as in a dribbler with a bunch of errors) to start the game-winning rally. I wish I could forget. I really do. Dumbest end to a movie I have EVER seen.

The whole thing was shit. My brother-in-law suggested this one as something we could take the kids to see. It was the second movie my daughter ever saw in the theater and I'm surprised it didn't turn her off movies forever.

For Love of the Game pisses me off for a whole different set of reasons. I have never felt more let down watching a movie, and this comes from a Star Wars geek who saw The Phantom Menace the week it opened.

 

Wife loves Rudy and the Cutting Edge.

I like that Mikey from Goonies is Rudy, and Locke from Lost is the dad in Cutting Edge.

Beyond that . . .
