Favorite Football Movie

Everybody's got one or two. Difficult to pick a #1, but if I had to, I think I'd go with "Draft Day" with K. Costner.
I thought "Radio" was good. I like most of Ed Harris's work.
Another was the original "The Longest Yard" with Burt Reynolds & Eddie Albert (who could play a great villain).
Haven't seen it in years, but "Brian's Song" with James Caan & Billy Dee Williams (not usually my favorite actor but OK in this one). Of course about Wake Forest's Brian Piccolo & Gale Sayers when they became friends playing for "Da Bears."
Lots of pretty good ones over the years.

“Knute Rockne: All-American”

Otherwise, I’d say “Remember the Titans” ... or maybe “Junction Boys”.
There have actually been very few really good movies focusing on football.
