We grew up with The Sandlot, SpaceJam, The Mighty Ducks trilogy, and even Little Giants and The Big Green he also was in. We were blessed with movies that taught lessons and the love of the game. You ask anyone if they watched these movies growing up they love what sports can teach you at a young age. Legends.

Same here! It was very unique being a 90s kid. I feel like we were the last generation to trully experience what a true childhood is, where we only had few TV channels and we spend more time playing outside, no tablets, no smart phones, no social media, etc. And the movies that came out were special unlike a lot of stuff that comes out today that is recycled and injected with some kind of an agenda.
