August 7, 200323 yr well, DeNiro and Snipes made The Fan be a really good movie IMO, but Major League was too funny and the best.
August 7, 200323 yr No "Angels in the Outfield"? :lol Can I just vote for Major League I, because II and III sucked.
August 7, 200323 yr mmm Field of Dreams was a close #2 for me. Sandlot is the classic American kids movie...baseball...played by kids...not organized. Just kids who pick on each other, but are friends, and go through crap together. And play baseball. That is baseball at its purest right there fellas. Then again, Field of Dreams is baseball at its purest too.

August 8, 200323 yr Sandlot is the classic American kids movie...baseball...played by kids...not organized.? Just kids who pick on each other, but are friends, and go through crap together.? And play baseball.? That is baseball at its purest right there fellas. I stopped playing orgazational baseball a couple years back, this is how we do it now. And let me tell you, it kicks the crap out of orgazational ball. Because say what you want about Hardball and Little League and all that stuff, but no one plays harder against each other than friends do. Home Plate Collisions, throwing at people for breaking one of the "unwritten rules", its total baseball with the ever present smash talk between plays. For me catching during our games, theres no better feeling then smoking my best friend at second base trying to steal and then getting to tell him about it his next at bat. When those kind of pickup games start, you find out that the absence of time is one of the most important reasons why baseball is man's greatest sport.
August 8, 200323 yr Field of Dreams. There are so few movies with that many memorable quotes in it. James Earl Jones' speech towards the end of the movie is actually printed on the side of Pac Bell Park in San Francisco. Not to mention, it's one of the few good Costner movies. :lol
August 8, 200323 yr Found a great site with all the classic lines from my pick Major League (the original only, what the hell were the "Buzz"?) Major League Quotes
August 8, 200323 yr Juanky, you are so correct. Someone on here has a quote I think that says something like "baseball is the greatest sport because unlike other sports, you can not stall. You must let the opposing team have a chance to win." Now, I dont think baseball is the greatest sport (im a football fan 1st and foremost), but baseball is a darn good sport and a definite close 2nd in my book.
August 10, 200323 yr Major league 1 was my favorite...Willie (Wesley Snipes.) was great. Too bad he couldn't come back for the second move the new Willie Hayes did good though.
August 10, 200323 yr #1:"Sandlot". It's a great,classic movie and when I watch it I just get a good feeling. #2:"The Fan" it was an extremely dramatic movie (Which I like.). Plus Bobby D and Wesley Snipes.
August 11, 200323 yr Somebody forgot to add "Eight Men Out" to this poll. I thought it was a good depiction of the Black Sox Scandal.
