Don't follow alot of those listed, but for the sports I do watch, here's my short list. 

Football would be "Brian's Song".

Baseball would be "For The Love Of The Game" or "The Natural".

Basketball is "Hoosiers".

Golf, because this is a golf forum, would be "Tin Cup", only because of Roy's charactor.

Hmmm.  I haven't been on Sand Trap for a while, but I saw this thread and couldn't resist adding my choices:

Baseball - Moneyball, A League of Our Own

Basketball - Hoosiers

Golf - Greatest Game Ever Played

Horse Racing - Pharlap

Rugby - Invictus

Auto Racing - Grand Prix

Hockey - The Rocket

Spelling Bee (it's on ESPN, so it's a sport!) - Akeelah and the Bee, Spellbound

Football - Knute Rockne, All-American

Cycling - La Petite Reine ('cause I saw Jeanson race in person numerous times)

Boxing - The Power of One
