	there are some truly awful films here

	I really enjoyed this quiz! Although, am surprised that so many people have missed bowling!

	buttscounty:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 21:26 GMT	2 points
	could "Nascar" be acceptable for "stock car racing"? never saw Stroker Ace so I don't know if that would apply or not.

	Kudos for the Big Lebowski addition. That really tied the quiz together.

	I sat here for a full minute trying to figure out why I had heard of American Flyers. Then I realized that my uncle was in it. I feel like I've failed my family. I liked this quiz, kinda easy with three movies though.

	Best part of this quiz was seeing two Ween song titles from the same album ("Stroker Ace" and "Ice Castles"). That can't be coincidental.

	Fun quiz - suggestion - This Sporting Life/The Final Winter/The Footy Legends for rugby league. Sure, the last two were probably not seen by anyone other than a small group of people in Australia, but I think This Sporting Life is good enough to carry them and merit inclusion!

	Javelin tossing fell just 3 movies short of getting onto this quiz. So close. So close.

	rockgolf:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 22:13 GMT	41 points
	I couldn't figure out the sport for "The Karate Kid", "The Karate Kid 2" and "The Next Karate Kid".

	jaymc:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 22:20 GMT	10 points
	Surprised cycling is so low -- I've never heard of "American Flyers" or "The Flying Scotsman," but "Breaking Away" won an Oscar and was nominated for five more. (OK, it was 30 years ago.)

	Chriscwest45:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 22:28 GMT	9 points
	Cycling might have been low because its specific. I tried biking, bike riding, and bicycling before finally getting cycling

	Cheerleading? They cheer for the real sports.

	Hey, cheerleading is more athletic than golf.

	Track/Cross Country should really be accepted for running. and nascar for stock car racing.

	schlomonomo:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 22:53 GMT	2 points
	I tried bicycling, biking, bikes. I just couldn't remember that the sport is technically called cycling. I never ask for these kinds of things, but can you accept biking? I swear I'll never ask again.

	dudemanbearpig:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 22:58 GMT	13 points
	Why is professional wrestling on here? I'm a huge fan, but it's not a sport, it's an athletic exhibition.

	slew:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 23:03 GMT	3 points
	I love Prefontaine, great movie indeed.

	caligal14:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 23:14 GMT	1 point
	Nacho Libre? Really? But for all you nay-sayers cheerleading is a real sport. I'm not a cheerleader (I do dance, though, which is should also be considered a sport) but they do some seriously intense working out/lifts/gymnastic-like moves. Although I'm not so sure all of the movies listed really focus on that aspect of it, though, haha

	Sorry cheerleaders, it ain't a sport. Deal with it.

	Samsonite:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 23:33 GMT	3 points
	Yet it is now recognized as one by most high school athletic associations.

	MatteSE:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 23:45 GMT	1 point
	Sure cheerleading is intense and require a lot (like, for example, furniture moving), but it's not a sport...

	Dorkle:	Oct 20th, 2009 at 23:45 GMT	3 points
	Fun quiz, but bowling and billiards are considered sports? I'll give you cheerleading. It's in the same category with gymnastics. I know it is recognized as a sport, but, to me, NASCAR does not really require athletic ability at all. It requires you to turn left repeatedly and step on the gas pedal. I guess if golf is a sport than anything could be...
