For the third time in Balls On Film history, we're making changes to The List.

We have the Space Jam talk; Andrew tells us about his Rocky Balboa-related problems; Jerry Maguire comes up again, because of course it does; we re-evaluate Mystery, Alaska; and after weeks of teasing it, Twomey lets out his For Love Of The Game frustrations.

Rocky Balboa | A Sports Movie Review

For the first time in Balls On Film history, we're looking at a sequel. It's a biggie: Rocky Balboa.

Moneyball | A Sports Movie Review

Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill star in what is one of the more unromantic looks at sport we've covered on Balls On Film. It's time to chat Moneyball. Like a few other movies that we've covered, Moneyball focuses on what happens off the field as former pro baseball player Billy Beane tries to turn a team of misfits into a team of winners. Listen to this episode of Balls On Film to find out where Moneyball ranks in our list of the greatest sports movies of all time.

Racing Stripes | A Sports Movie Review

For a movie aimed at kids, there sure is a lot of hatred thrown at that poor zebra that thinks he's a horse. Racing Stripes is a weird movie. As you'll hear Twomey point out on this podcast, it's odd that no one makes a big deal out of a teenage girl being a boss jockey, there's a Rocky 4-esque montage and those flies are really something. Also, Dustin Hoffman puts in a performance we'll likely never forget. Listen to this episode of Balls On Film to find out where Racing Stripes ranks in our list of the greatest sports movies of all time.

The Damned United | A Sports Movie Review

A lot of the real players in this movie mightn't be fans of the source material, but you can't dispute the brilliance of Michael Sheen in The Damned United. The movie based on the book based on Brian Clough's short time in charge at Leeds United delves into the relationship of a football manager and his players, as well as the relationship between two old friends. Listen to this episode of Balls On Film to find out what The BOF Boys think of The Damned United. The Greatest Sports Movie Of All Time List (going into today's podcast) 1. Rocky 2. The Hustler 3.
