So it looks like it’s baseball season again. And for the first time in several years, that really  means something to me.

5. Youngblood (1986; Dir. by Peter Markle and starring Rob Lowe, Patrick Swayze, and Cynthia Gibb)

Blane Youngblood: “You can learn to punch in the barn, but you gotta learn to survive on the ice.”

Youngblood is a classic 80s movie in every sense: It has booming synth music, dimly-lit montages, and Patrick Swayze. It might not be the most popular movie in the hockey catalogue, but I’ll be damned if we at Game 6 are going to sit here and pretend like it’s not wildly entertaining anyway.

5. The Greatest Game Ever Played (2005; Dir. by Bill Paxton and starring Shia LeBeouf)

Francis Ouimet: “All I want is a chance.”

The golf movie catalogue is admittedly thin. Let’s just say The Greatest Game Ever Played won’t make Friday’s top-25. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t enjoyable in its own right.
