Episode 5 – Whats Your Top 5 Favorite Sports Movies

First of all, Happy St. Patty’s Dahy everyone! We hope the Coronavirus hasn’t affected you too much. If you’re stuck at home because of it, we some some good news for you! The Whats Your Top 5 crew is back again with a new episode, this one talking about our favorite sports movies. Your co hosts RJ Carnesi and Larry Lloyd are joined this week by a new guest host, Trevor Lucas. Trevor (along with RJ and Larry for that matter) is a sports enthusiast extraordinarie and brought some interesting movies into this discussion.

The ultimate underdog story?

There are so many great sports movies out there to have chosen from and you see a bit of that diversity in our respective lists. I’m sure we missed a lot of movies; I know that, in retrospect, I did. I sort of wish we could have done our Top 10 instead!

And how we approached these lists was interesting too. Trevor elected to stick to movies that came out in the 80’s since, that’s when these kinds of movies were so important to him. As a former soccer player, he also, unsurprisingly, brought the only soccer movie to the discussion. Me on the other hand, as the old guy on the panel, I had the oldest movie on my list.

One of the first soccer movies ever made in the US!

RJ, a huge hockey fan (fun fact, he has actually held the Stanley Cup trophy after it was one by the Anaheim Ducks MANY years ago), brought some coolest game on Earth to the list.

So, we hope you enjou this episode. We’d love to hear from you to let us know what Sports Movies YOU love. Email either RJ (RJ@whatsyourtop5.com) or Larry (podhostlarry@whatsyourtop5.com), leave us a great review wherever you listen to podcasts (these help us expand our reach of listeners), or leave a comment right here.

Thanks!
