One. Day. Left. (and best sports movies)...

Day 30: INcomplete

Morning session: N/A
Evening session: 8.65
Total distance: 8.65 miles

Yet another failed attempt at morning running. This is ridiculous. I'm standing on exactly 345 miles with one day to go. I should be ecstatic, but I'm actually pretty disappointed in myself, with the way I've wound down the month. 400 would've been reachable, and I've basically allowed myself to coast--which I told myself I wouldn't.

Watching my final sports flick now, which I mentioned last night: Victory.

I made a list of every sports movie I've watched--that I could think of--over the last 8-10 weeks. I counted the ones I watched on DVR in Wichita in June, since I had several on there.

But anyway, the list I've compiled has 71 sports movies on it, and I am now going to do a Top 15 list of the best ones--well, my favorites, anyway. So that's what this blog will basically be all about...

I say 15 partially because I said I'd make up for not having a Top 10 list last night, and partially because 71 is a lot of flicks, and 10 may not do it justice. ;)

Here goes:

**NOTE: OK, so I really tried to narrow it to 15, but it was just too hard. 20 was difficult enough. But here it is...share any thoughts at all, if ya got 'em!**

Top 20 sports movies I've watched this summer:

20. The 6th Man--basketball
19. We Are Marshall--football
18. Million Dollar Baby--boxing
17. Major League--baseball
16. Glory Road--basketball
15. Blue Chips--basketball
14. The Legend of Bagger Vance--golf
13. He Got Game--basketball
12. White Men Can't Jump--basketball
11. Bull Durham--baseball
10. Above the Rim--basketball
9. The Greatest Game Ever Played--golf
8. For Love of the Game--baseball
7. Rocky--boxing
6. Invincible--football
5. Remember the Titans--football
4. Rocky IV--boxing
3. Hoosiers--basketball
2. Miracle--hockey
1. Cinderella Man--boxing



This would not have been the first movie that popped in my head, but I just kept coming back to it as being better than all the others. I absolutely love this film. It has everything. Amazing flick that you must see, and if you've seen it--see it again.

Enjoy.

D, out.
