sports related episodes

It seems like a lot of sports have been incorporated into episodes over the years. Do you have any favorites?

One of my favorites is "Tennis the Menace", the one where Marge and Bart team up in tennis against Homer and Venus Williams. Eventually, all players are replaced with professionals.

Homer: Which one am I? Serena or Venus?
Bart: You're Andre. I'm Serena.
Homer: Ha, ha, ha -- you're a girl.

I like that episode also

I like when all the pro tennis players replace the Simpsons

Another of my faves is the one when Mr.Burns starts a softball team and gets all these pro baseball players and then all these things start happening to them

yeah, I love those episodes! -So funny! I also love 'Lisa on Ice', where Lisa and Bart has to play Hockey against each other. Loved how Homer kept playing them against each other for his love

I love the sports related episodes of The Simpsons. My favorite is also Lisa On Ice. It is such a funny episode and had a nice touching moment during the penalty shot when Bart and Lisa had those flashbacks from when they were younger.

Another episode in this category that`s my favorite behind Lisa On Ice is the episode when Homer was a boxer. The fight between Homer and Dredrick Tatum was so hilarous, especially when Moe did his own version of The Fan Man to save Homer from getting killed by Tatum.

Very good sibling scene in the flashbacks. I liked the flashback where they both had ice cream. Lisa accidentally dropped hers, so Bart shared his ice cream.

Definitely a nice flashback scene of Bart and Lisa

That's another great episode where Homer has to fight Dredrick Tatum, poor Homer and love when Moe gets the flying apparatus and takes him away

I also like the one with Tony Hawk. Homer uses a special skateboard and battles him like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

Gah, my favourite sports related episode and one of my favourite eps in general has to be pee wee football, when Homer becomes coach.

The best bits are when he's in the stands yelling "Flaaaaaanddddddddddderrrrrs", and his insistance on cutting everyone. I love when he cuts everyone in the credits, especially the golden "You're cut too shushy" at the end.

and when Homer has a flashback of his gymnastic days in high school.

The ice skating ep is also awesome, especially for the brother/sister moments.

"I just cut off the head of mister honey bunny."
"Bart, that's your childhood toy."

I remember the pee wee football ep. That's the one where Bart went to jail for Nelson, so Nelson could stay in the game.

I think Hank Hill from King of the Hill also makes a cameo appearance in the episode.
