Comment on the Tribeca/ESPN Fans' Favorite Football Film
You made the call, and thanks to your votes, we have 16 contenders fighting to win Movie Mayhem 2008. The overwhelming favorites are Remember the Titans and Rudy, which outpaced all other candidates for the top two seeds. Can we expect to see these underdog stories face off in the finals? Or will this tournament’s own underdog upstarts, Wildcats and Necessary Roughness, tackle one of the favorites in the first round? Will the little giants in Little Giants prove bigger than their Friday Night Lights high school counterparts? Will James Caan have a winner with Brian’s Song or The Program? Will Tom Cruise's Jerry Maguire have us at hello, or will Keanu Reeves, Gene Hackman, and The Replacements prevail?We can’t answer these questions. Only your votes and comments will determine who continues on to round two and still has a chance to win the ultimate crown of Fans’ Favorite Football Flick.

I am sorry but nobody is "ballot box" stuffing. Marshall fans are simply passionate about their community, school and team and are voting accordingly. If you find that frustrating them garner up some support just the same as we have.

I went to see this movie when it came out and have puchased the dvd and watched it at least 6 times. This movie captured everything that was going on at that time, and the producers got it right. Being 18 at the time and knowing one of the players that had graduated from my high school. This film captured every emotion a person could feel. Also, I noticed when I voted that We Are Marshall had a 91% rate to Rudy at 9%...hmmm, can you feel the THUNDER!

We are Marshall is the most heart warming film of all time. This movie reflects the courage, strength, and determination of a small town school. Marshall University has came along way since then and it is my belief that if the Football program would have ended, it would have stunted the growth and development of the school as well as that of the town. The triumphant return of The Thundering Herd is something we should all be proud of.

I am so proud that the true story of my alma mater could be told through such a great film. There are many people across the country who already knew about the tragedy that took place on November 14, 1970, but this film introduced the spirit of Marshall to many new people, and as is my hope, to many new fans. I was not born until years after the plane crash, but I stood by the memorial fountain with community members and other members of the student body on November 14 each year I attended Marshall. I stood with those who were still grieving the losses of the crash. I prayed for those I never knew, but those I could proudly call my fellow sons and daughters of Marshall. “Ballot stuffing” or not, those who love Marshall University remember these words from our Alma Mater by C.E. and James Haworth: “May the years be kind to Marshall; May she grow in fame; May her children fail her never True to her beacon flame May her spirit brave and strong Honor right and conquer wrong; This the burden of our song Ever her truth proclaim.”
We are.....Inspired!

Whenever you feel like giving up, watch WE ARE MARSHALL. Whenever you feel unmotivated watch WE ARE MARSHALL. This movie portrayed the Players, the Team, the community all very well. MC.G did what he said he was going to do by never "glorifiying us". He was going to let the film do the talking and thats what he did. He made a ACCURATE portrayal of the entire situtation. I salute him. The actors were amazing and FOX stole the show. I saw the premier in huntington at the keith albee and there wasnt a dry eye in the building. Possibly the saddest thing i've ever witnessed. To see family members of the players and coaches and residents cry uncontrollably was something a 26 year old will never forget. So whether its a movie were voting on or supporting THE HERD on the field, its a LOVE for THAT TEAM that keeps me in Huntington. I'm a Marshall fan for life, and probably after life as well. Go Herd and I see hands down this being the number one movie. If not i still view it as it is #1 Go HERD!!!!

Lest I, too, be accused of ballot box stuffing, I was NOT a student at MU when this occurred and am, in fact, a WVU graduate (later going to Marshall for a graduate degree). However, I was a newspaper reporter in Huntington during the rebuilding year (having gotten out of the Navy shortly after the plane crashed). It is one of the most inspiring sports movies I've ever seen because it is about a community...not just a team. As an aside, why wasn't one of the other all-time great football movies, North Dallas Forty, even on the list???

I will never forget the Place and time.I was a Marshall Student and I saw 1st hand how it effected the University and the Love and Respect that those Players gave to the Game. The Movie gave the Nation an idea of dedication and ability to start over and how sports can bring together a State and city and Families back together it was not all about the Game . But the Game is about how you build love and respect. Least we never forget.

I was a freshman at Marshall in November 1970. One of those players that died was in my history class. I remember sitting at home on that rainy Saturday evening watching TV and hearing that a plane had gone down at the airport. That was one of the saddest days of my life, next to losing my own dear family members years later. The student body president was my future brother in law and I remember watching him on TV when they had the memorial service at The Memorial Field House. They played the hymn O God Our Help in Ages Past. I will always remember Marshall University when I hear and sing that Hymn. I was there during those next few years and the stadium was always packed at home games even though the Young Herd lost more than one. This definitely is MY favorite football movie because it is about MY TEAM!!!

I never understood what was ever inspirational or commendable about someone who is .5% talent and 99.5% arrogance who didn't care about anything but himself, but never the less reached his dream to play a couple of downs for a losing football team. What happened to NORTH DALLAS 40? I agree with a previous logger. Even HOOSIERS a movie about basketball was a better football movie.

I remember the night of the tradgedy very well and am linked to the crash by the planes tail section striking the tops of the trees on my Uncles land across the road from the crash site. I was in attendance at the Xavier game and sat on the 40 yard line and watched Terry Gardner make the game winning catch. I hope that We Are Marshall wins as this would be a great tribute to the players, coaches and fans that parrished that cold rainy November night. Marshall has truely risen from the Ashes and the players have finally been honored.

All it did was give the University and fools like Sonny Randall an excuse for spending money, forcing students to pay ungodly activity fees and taking 20 years to build a decent football team!

Actually, from a professional therapist point of view it is the community who has chosen the pathological grieving path that is in need of counseling. Like much of WV, the area has chosen to accept the role of victim and the movie proves that it continues to look for validation from others.

As we go thru life, some of us are faced with real tragedies and genuinely hurt, others like WOW above go thru life pretending to know how the rest of us feel, having no clue, because nothing in life matters to them. So they never know pain, hurt, sorrow, jubilation, hope, passion or love. Their only feeling is condemnation for their fellow man that do have feelings. I guarantee you, there is a whole lot more of us than there are of you… Dennis

I was a freshman at MU when the tragic plane crash occurred. My husband and I, along with another couple, heard the crash from our home. We went outside and saw the red sky then hopped in the car and drove to the crash site. It was pouring rain and we had the radio on listening to the news reports. It took us about fifteen minutes to get to the crash site and what we saw when we topped the hill was horrible. We got out of the car and asked a fireman if there was anything we could do. His exact words were, "It's over! There is nothing anyone can do." We smelled burning flesh and the wreckage was all over the hillside. Some large pieces of the plane and others smaller. Debris was strewn over the entire side of the hill. I'll never forget that evening. We left and it was on the way back home we heard that the entire MU football team and some Huntington citizens were on the plane that crashed. To those of you making all he negative remarks about the movie all I can say is you have no heart. I understand your opinion of not likeing the WAM movie as well as another but where do you come off as making such remarks? I'm a Floridian now but have and always will miss Huntington, WV and the comradery of the people living there. Marshall University is love!!

That was the most moving movie I have ever watched. Being a Canadian, I will never feel the hurt as they do, but did feel the hurt they felt. Hurray excellent movie

Marshall grad 1964- JAMES W. BAKER, MD LEXINGTON, KY-SAE Love the movie. Have seen it several times. It is by far the best sports movie of all time because of its human interest and screenplay. It should never be forgotten. GO HERD!

A fitting tribute to a tragic accident. The people,students, athletes and all who were a part of the Young Herd deserve to take their place in movie history. GO HERD!!!!!

If We are Marshall does not win, there is no justice. As a person who grew up in the Ohio Valley and remembers the pain and hurt so many of us felt when this tragedy occured, it would be a slap in the face to all who fought their way through this horrible ordeal. Remember WE ARE MARSHALL and nobody should forget that.
