I agree.
What, however, were some of the good sports movies that were as much or more about the sport?

What? Really?
Remember the Titans - 75% of the film is football. Football is the reason those kids segregated themselves. The schools were forced to but the kids came together as one unit, a team.
Cinderella Man - Depression, losing everything, down to the end of his rope...boxing brought him back. The sport gave him and his family a chance
We Are Marshall - Yep
Slap Shot - Funniest hockey movie of all time, easily. Classicly awesome. Perfect use of the sport.
Glory Road - See Remember the Titans Above
Bull Durham - It is about baseball, don't you dare take that away from me
Tin Cup - 90% of this movie is all golf
Moneyball - Changed the game of baseball
I am not saying you are wrong, I just think saying rarely is a bad move
