Somewhere dolphin is grinding teeth to powder....marathon time people.

It's the most agonizing time of the year
With the cars stuck and honking
And everyone running and cheering
It's the most agonizing time of the year

It's the crap-crappiest season of all
With that stretching and sweating and pathetic carb loading
When country rubes come to town
It's the crap-crappiest season of all....

By theme are you saying the main title music or the entire soundtrack? Solo themes, mine would be

Rudy
Remember the Titans
Chariots of Fire
Rocky
The Natural

There's nothing that can get you more jacked for a sports movie than the "rocky" theme. everything else is a distant second. "chariots" is a great sweeping, swelling tune, but doesn't have the power of "gonna fly now".

Major League's "Indians getting it together" theme is great.


MLB Network played it in the intro

When that theme started playing in Creed I almost jumped out of my chair.

That was not only a great use of the song but the way they used it and the montage was incredible.

The music score in Brian's Song is good as well. Same with Victory(the Nazi soccer movie)
