The sports movie genre is filled with instant classics. These movies are not made just for men or sports fans, but all movie watchers. Sports movies are comprised with elements of competition, humor, joy and sorrow. There are highs and there are lows. Often, the audience is taught an important life lesson.
There are hundreds of sports movies to choose from. To narrow it down, I tried to spread the Top 6 among movies from different sports. I could comprise a list of Top Sports Movies and use only basketball films (Hoosiers, Blue Chips, Air Bud, etc) but that wouldn’t be any fun. Variety makes a Top list worthy.

Below are my picks for Top 6 Sports Movies of All-Time:

pride of the yankees No. 6 – The Pride of the Yankees
Gary Cooper stars as Lou Gehrig in this great American baseball story. I remember watching this movie for the first time in speech class because of the amazing delivery of Gehrigs speech in his last game as a Yankee. Watch the Speech
sandlot No. 5 – The Sandlot
The Sandlot is another baseball movie that takes grown-ups back to their childhood. What kid didn’t spend his summer days playing baseball, swimming in the community pool and chewing tobacco on the tilt-a-whirl? Sandlot tells the story of Scotty Smalls and Benny “The Jet” during that magical summer on the sandlot.
rudy No. 4 – Rudy
Rudy is the ultimate underdog story. Daniel “Rudy” Ruettiger’s lifelong dream was to play football for Notre Dame, but his entire life he’s always told he’s too small, too slow or just can’t do it. Rudy has heart, never gives up, and eventually steps on the field as a walk-on senior in the last game of the season. Check out how hardcore a Notre Dame fan Rudy is.
bull durham No. 3 – Bull Durham
Kevin Costner probably has 3 or 4 movies in the Top 25 Sports Movies of all-time, but Bull Durham is his best. It’s a hilarious baseball movie that tells the story of a minor leaguer Crash Davis. the movies brings you inside the clubhouse and the lifestyle of a lifelong minor leaguer.
slap shot No. 2 – Slap Shot
Another minor league sports film on the list! This time it’s hockey. Slap Shot, starring Paul Newman is one of the funniest movies of all-time. It’s not the raunchy and vulgar humor that make this film an instant classic, it’s the Hanson Brothers and the notorious Ogie Ogelthorpe.
caddyshack No. 1 – Caddyshack
You don’t have to be a golf fan to appreciate the greatness of Caddyshack. This is one of those movies that you will stop flipping channels and watch till the end no matter what time of night it is. The entire cast is great and the characters are even better. Who could ever forget Ty Webb, Judge Smails, Danny Noonan, Lacy Underall and Carl Spackler?

They are hot, but the ladies on their arms are even hotter. It is never shocking to see star athletes with sexy women. The two go hand-in-hand. In fact ever since I can remember, sports heroes have always had super hotties on the sidelines cheering them on for years.

With the NFL, NBA, and NHL all in high gear, I’ve decided to do a countdown of the top five sports hotties. Not only do they have curves and beauty, these girls are also talented they casts shadows on their top athlete.

5. Eva Longoria Parker – wife of Tony Parker
4. Kim Kardashian – girlfriend of Reggie Bush
3. Victoria Beckham – wife of David Beckham
2. Gisele Bundchen – girlfriend of Tom Brady
1. Elin Nordgegren Woods– wife of Tiger Woods
Honorable Mentions:
Jessica Simpson – girlfriend of Tony Romo
Vanessa Bryant – wife of Kobe Bryant

Don’t see your favorite on here; share with us who you think should be “benched” and replaced with your sporty hottie.

A few weeks ago I went out to a college football game. The weather was a little windy and as the game got further into the night, the temperature was dropping fast. The usual fashions of slit-cut shirts, team-colored polo dresses, and logo tanks paired with a mini jean skirt were no where to be found – it was way too cold. Instead I saw these first pick items that surely weren’t “benched” on the sideline.

Here are five items that should be a part of your Fall Gameday Wardrobe:

1. Great Tote – proudly show your team spirit while carrying your must-haves to the game.
2. Fitted Jacket – the frumpy old coat has to go. Trade it out for a fitted jacket to show off those sexy curves.
3.Classic earrings – accessorize your threads with fun team studs.
4.Scarf – cozy up with a woven favorite on those chilly gamedays.
5.White Shirt – no matter if it’s a turtleneck or button-up; a classic white shirt can always be paired with fitted denim, or dressed up with slacks for those exclusive skybox socials.

All of these items and more can be found on footballfanatics.com. For a limited time, shop now and receive free shipping on orders over $75!
