Opinion The 25 Funniest Sports Movies of All-Time
From nearly 70,000 reader votes on more than 50 sports comedies …
#25 – The Longest Yard (original)
The 1974 original is the oldest movie on the list, proving the enduring entertainment value in seeing those in authority getting the crap kicked out of them.
#24 – Varsity Blues
It’s the story of a small-town Texas high school that places huge importance on football. Sounds more like a documentary. Oh, wait. James Van Der Beek is a star quarterback? There are your laughs.
#23 – Major League II
The sequel to “Major League” couldn’t quite live up to the original. Blame Omar Epps’ Willie Mays Hayes.
#22 – A League of Their Own
Geena Davis was the star, Rosie O’Donnell provided comic relief and Madonna was a sex symbol. Wow, 1992 was a really long time ago.
#21 – D2: The Mighty Ducks
Emilio Estevez doesn’t have much of a movie career nowadays, but at least he can claim that his sports movie sequel holds up better than his brother Charlie Sheen’s does. Also, he probably doesn’t have a potpourri of porn star-provided venereal diseases. Good job, Emilio.

News NHL Honors Marvin Luther Kang Day
The league stuffed a informational flier on “Marvin Luther Kang” into the programs at all of its games on Martin Luther King Day. The accompanying photo was of actor Morgan Freeman and the text included such lines as “Dr. Kang was a doctor who may have been the first black man to cure a disease” and “his bus boycott was done in order to force bus manufacturers to make buses with better gas mileage.”
Commissioner Bettman also hinted during an in-game interview that “Dr. Kang” was the “first person to … help black people … interpret their dreams, maybe? He may have also been an accomplished mountain climber? Look, I have to go now.”
The NHL offered 50-percent off tickets to all black people on the holiday, as well as to fans who arrived to games aboard one of “Kang’s patented electric buses.”
