I had a hard decision between Bull Durham and The Natural...

I went with the Natural...

Has anyone else read the book? It is excellent too... But the ending is NOTHING like the move. I want spoil it here... but I do recommend the read.

It is unfair to have Caddyshack in this contest. The contest should be about the greatest sports movie ever, besides Caddyshack.

I never really liked Caddyshack myself. I think it's good, and I think it's pretty funny, but I've never thought it was one of "the greatest movies ever." I still think it's in a completely different league from Happy Gilmore, but I really hope it doesn't win the whole thing.

I don't think it will win.. Either Rudy or Rocky...

Caddyshack in a landslide. One of the greatest comedies of all time. I love Rocky and Hoosiers also.
