Great list though I haven't seen The Waterboy. So The Replacements is my favorite football movie at the moment. Will look into The Waterboy soon.
Grand Prix and Le Mans are my favorite racing movies, both made when I was a kid during my heightened interest in racing and the driving heroes of the day.

You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.

Aw man....you gotta see The Waterboy, LOL! I also liked Any Given Sunday.
Le Mans is killer, and has actual race footage in it. Another racing movie that I liked was "Greased Lightning", which the story of the first African-American racer in NASCAR, Wendell Scott.
