That's because "Major League" was made in the 80's ... not the 70's
...and "Necessary Roughness" was made in the 90's ... not the 70's
Star Wars Episode XXX: Erica Strikes Back
If you want Nice, go to France
I know they werent made in the 70s but he stated Rocky as Best Sports Film, which it is DEFINITLEY not in my opinion, and I knew someone was gonna say....ehh not in the 70s...thats why I wrote Best Sports Film category

I was staying within the context of the 1970'a, not of all time.
