Greatest Fictional Athlete in a Sports Movie ?

his 3 buddies were Dennis Quaid, Daniel Stern (Home Alone/City Slickers) and Jackie Earle Haley - Kelly Leak from the Bad News Bears !

 

shouldn't his bike be nominated? it did all the work? hahahaha.

REFUND! REFUND! REFUND!

Dooley was also the sympathetic Dad to Molly Ringwald in 16 Candles.

 

No Louden Swain? He took down Brian Shute?

What the hell does a guy have to do to get on this list?

 

Chazz Michael Michaels and Jimmy MacElroy won the gold both as singles and in couples, with each other.

Where's the respect?

 

More trivia for you:

Dave Stohler was played by no other than teen heartthrob Shaun Cassidy on the short lived Breaking Away TV series (8 episodes)

 

Noodle Catfish.

 

Oh hell! I think I my brain purged all memory of that truly awful Blades of Glory flick until you resurrected it. Thanks Tim.

 

Yeah well....Doug Dorsey was captain of the US Hockey team and a soon to be surefire NHL star. And then he had a head injury and loss of vision. But did that stop him? No. He learned to figure skate in a couples pairing. And he learned to do the Pamchenko....an extremely dangerous move.....and he f'n won that gold medal.

GOAT.

 

And also...Randy Daytona.

Nothing says greatness like being forced to play Ping Pong with your life on the line and winning.

 

Yeah, but did he get a full scholarship and eventually lead an island full of native pirates to the first ever South Pacific Intramural Lacrosse League championship?

No, he did not.



But this fucking guy did -

 

Oh so animated characters count?

I'm pretty sure no team won more at the Laff-A-Lympics than The Scooby Doobies.

The Captain and heart of that team was none other than the legendary Scooby-Doo.

You can close this thread now.

 

But can you go from cartoon back to real world seamlessly enough to knock Scooby's snack right out his damn mouth?

I bet I can -




Air Bud

WHAT HAPPENED TO BEING IN A SPORTS MOVIE ?

 

Can't wait to noodle Lyman when the Browns start the season 0-6 ! haha

I think I'm safe from being noodled.

 

that's 2 mentions of the Cutting Edge BWW. Do you have a secret crush or Doug Dorsey or Kate Moseley (Moira Kelly)?

 

Moira Kelly was hot in that movie.

 

Well.......he was an amazing college football player and an All American.

Best table tennis player in the world.

Cross country runner.

In the book he was also an accomplished professional wrestler.

And....he taught Elvis how to dance.
