Ok, so 'tis the season and all. What is your fav movie based on football theme? This might be kind of limited but we can certainly see which is most popular... :D

I thought The Replacements was pretty good. But Remember The Titans just kicked butt!

I think the best football movie was "The Program" with James Caan. I only wonder how many Vladimir's are out there in college sports. For some reason, Romanowski of the Raiders reminds me of that character. Dunno why, but he does.

Thanx Jonman - I was thinking The Longest Mile but knew it wasn't right and I was brainfarting and didn't even think Yard.
Thought of another one: Paper Lion with Alan Alda

How about "Semi-Tough"? As I recall, I laughed a lot when I saw that one.
That, and the football game from "M*A*S*H", although the movie itself doesn't exactly qualify as a football-themed movie.

I guess I'm old school but I'm partial to "North Dallas Fourty". (Although "Remember The Titans" kicked a$$)

Since someone already mentioned "Wildcats," how about "The Best of Times" with Kurt Russell and Robin Williams?
