	Asterisk means team has since relocated or been re-named. Either the current team or the name at the time of the film are accepted. Let me know if you have any other ideas of stuff to add!

	Minor note - It's Roy "Scheider" not "Schneider". How about Detroit Lions in Paper Lion, Chicago Bears in Brian's Song, or Florida Marlins in The Rookie.

	Kroxquo, All the movies you mentioned aren't fiction. They all happened.

	Its the Rays not the Marlins in the Rookie...

	Wasnt Brokeback Mountain about the New England Patriots?

Comment below threshold: show it

	Also, pretty sad you need to have homophobic comments about the Patriots, obssessed with them much? Is your team that bad?

	ABarrett1124:	Feb 5th, 2011 at 21:00 GMT	-2 points
	Considering my team beat them in the playoffs the simple answer is no. Hating the Patriots comes with the territory..and I think most fans , not only Jets fans , think Brady's a huge fag.

	Mr. Baseball would have made a tricky addition to this list.

	@ABarrett, that's the difference between you and me, I'm satisfied with winning championships, you're satisfied with beating the Patriots. Regardless of the playoff game, considering it's been 42 years since the Jets have even been to the Super Bowl, let alone win it, then yes, your team IS that bad. And you also prove your immaturity and classlessness with that comment as well.

	At the time The Rookie happened, they were the Devil Rays.

	lol my comment was a joke..I guess butt hurt Pats fans like you take it to heart though.

	The Rookie, Paper Lion, and Brian's song were all based on true stories. This quiz is for fictional ones. Maybe I should make a sequel based on true story films?

	Great quiz: It Happens Every Spring, Debbie does Dallas, Bull Durham(?), Tiger Town, Brewsters Millions, The Sluggers Wife, Night Game, Game 6. I'm guessing soccer is out of the question...

	bbf2:	Feb 6th, 2011 at 01:31 GMT	1 point
	@Ned_Ryerson Thanks for the comment! I've never heard of "Game 6" before so I added it to the quiz. As for your other suggestions, Sluggers Wife and Night Game were already on there, I looked up "It Happens Every Spring" and "Debbie Does Dallas" and apparently they were based on fictional teams that just happened to resemble real life teams, Bull Durham was set at a minor league team, and Tiger Town was a made-for-TV and not released in theaters. As for Brewsters Millions, I've never seen it but I looked at the summary and it sounds like the Yankees are only in it for a few scenes and don't really factor into the overall plot. If someone who's actually seen that movie can verify that the Yankees are actually a big part of the movie I'll go ahead and add it!

	the yankees are not a huge part of brewster's millions, however the whole story line builds towards a challenge in which brewster gaurantees that his minor league team can shut out the yankees for three innings.
