So speak up and tell me: Which sports-centric film motivates you the most?

A League of Their Own always makes me teary-eyed. Not only is it a funny, bittersweet, and touching sports movie, but the true story behind it — of the short-lived All-American Girls Professional Baseball League — is incredibly inspirational. Even watching the fictional movie, I'm always moved by the idea of so many talented female athletes playing together and capturing the nation's imagination during a difficult time.

It's not that the trailer for The Blind Side isn't compelling; the problem is that it combines Sandra Bullock's twangiest, most-over-the top lines with a heartrending song, which makes it seem schlocky. That's exactly what I expected from the movie, but I have to admit that I was wrong — to my surprise, I found it to be a sentimental gem that's actually quite restrained.

Jennifer Lopez was in a mini dress on Monday for a photo shoot in LA, where between takes she sported mismatched shoes and snacked on pizza. She has lots of posing and promotional work in her future, as she gears up for the release of her new album coming in January and movie The Break-Up Plan shortly after in March. Come Sunday, however, Jennifer may be back in Miami to be with Marc and cheer on his Dolphins when they host Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen and play the Patriots.

Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy smiled and waved in NYC on Friday as the Christmas Carol train tour pulled into Grand Central Station. Jim was soon off to film an appearance on Good Morning America, as he begins promoting his holiday movie before its release next Friday. He's still rocking the beard we saw him sporting earlier this month, and it might come in handy for Jim as he heads into Winter.

Did you watch Gossip Girl last night? I'm avidly watching the third season of the show at the moment, and the cast are still busy in New York filming further episodes. Yesterday Penn was caught by autograph hunters as he took a break, while Taylor sported her shades to check on her phone — her legs seem to get longer in every picture!
