None of those movies were actually about the sports
Ok, so if we get technical, none of them are, ever.
You would have to have a documentary about a sport to qualify I guess. But the sport is def a huge part

This is the flaw with the idea of this thread. I can't even think of a movie that is actually at the heart of it completely about the sport. Then I start to ask myself if the reason why people really like sports is about the sports. It's about overcoming adversity, regional patriotism, etc. It's kind of a fuzzy path that you start heading down if you think about it that way.
ETA: The closest that comes to being completely about the sport that I can think of is Moneyball.
