Sports movies are more than just winning shots, sudden-death overtime, and underdogs who come from behind. They're about trusting your instincts, going for your dreams, watching hunky guys in tight T-shirts...all of which makes them one of the few things on the planet that Mars and Venus can watch together in harmony. So for all of you seeking a little harmony in your life, here are my picks for the top ten sports movies for guys AND girls.
BRIAN'S SONG (1970)
You didn't really think we'd get through this list without mentioning "Brian's Song," did you? Well, get your hankies out, because when it comes to tear-jerkers, this one's a doozie. It tells the real-life story of Brian Piccolo (James Caan) and Gayle Sayers (Billy Dee Williams), and the bond they shared as Chicago Bears teammates in a time when blacks and whites didn't mix all that much. When Piccolo is diagnosed with cancer, and Sayers declares that he loves him...well, check your guy's tear-ducts, because I bet they'll be misty! Sniff...
