If Gene Hackman wasn't such a great actor, this movie proves he could have been a great motivational speaker.



Friday Night Lights


Billy Bob Thornton's motivational monologue to his high school football team can get anyone pumped.

Houston versus LA is not exactly Russia versus the US, but watching what is considered one of the best sports speeches of all time certainly couldn't hurt.



Coach Carter


If this can make Samuel L. Jackson emotional, it has to be good.





Rocky Balboa


The sixth installment of the series that brought you the inspirational Rocky theme song, now brings you an equally powerful speech.



Cool Runnings


If a Jamaican bobsled team can make it to the Olympics, the Houston Astros can certainly win a World Series.



Gridiron Gang


Dwayne Johnson could get you fired up reading a bed time story.



Braveheart


If Jose Altuve is wearing face paint and riding a horse tonight, you know what happened.





Independence Day


So saving the world from aliens and a baseball game don't have much in common, but you have to admit this one lights a fire inside you.



Animal House


Nothing like a little comic relief to ease the tension of a World Series Game 7.
