Weird: Went with Tin Cup, Rocky, a movie/doc I'd seen online about soccer hooliganism (other) and hadn't seen any of the wrestling movies so didn't feel like I should vote. I think I've seen Vision Quest, but have forgotten it.
So, that's my vote.

You can't really mix real wrestling and fake....

Heh. You didn't actually date the female state champ from TN that got mad Roy didn't lay up.
She was legitimately pissed; not a fun date.
I loved that he went for it.
I did not get laid that night.

Went with Caddyshack, Rocky, Kicking and Screaming, Ready to Rumble.
To be fair I've never seen any other soccer or wrestling movie beyond the ones I listed. Pretty sure Kicking and Screaming came out in the 00's after Will Ferrell had done Old School and Anchorman. It's a shame Greatest Game Ever Played isn't getting any love. Real good flick, just up against strong competition.

The Reviews are not good:
-The whole thing reminds you more of an overanxious teacher or coach, taking a few slang words and repeating them endlessly in a doomed attempt to "relate."
-The bicycle acrobatics behind the credits at the opening of Rad are so spectacular that you wonder what the movie can do to improve on them. The short answer is, nothing.
-Any film calling itself Rad had best be taken with a grain of salt, regardless of its subject matter. As it happens, the subject matter of Rad constitutes probably the dorkiest storyline we've seen this year.
-Conner's screen debut is inauspicious -- to put it kindly -- in the quality of both his acting and the material chosen, and someone else is obviously doing his riding.
-Rad fits so snugly into Needham's oeuvre that it's unclear whether the movie is an excuse for the 8 minute BMX montage that opens Rad or he's just lazy about setting up the slobs vs. snobs beats in his 30 year-old-teenagers in high school magnum opus.

Caddyshack II a glaring omission. One of the few sequels that’s better than the original
