Remember when the Yankees won last year and the Red Sox didn't make the playoffs?

it's too bad you can't understand the magic of that moment. yankee fan or not. I actually feel sorry for you.

MEGABOWL II

the stolen base that launched a million bandwagoners

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xX5NdToDjfk

>>9372121

that catch was ridiculously amazing and an all-time moment. But it wasn't 2004. Again I'm not a fan of any of the teams involved in either case. I just love sports. 2004 reminded me of the magic that can happen.

>>9372142
18-1

>>9372142

ok bostonfag

>>9372131

Really, are you that cynical? Why even care anymore then if you can't appreciate how amazing that series was.

FWIW, Boone's homer the year before was another huge moment.

>>9372160

I'm a Nationals fan tripfag. Why a Colts fan would be so defensive is beyond me.

>>9372121

Actually to be honest my favorite memory is Ryan Zimmerman's walk off HR the night they opened Nationals Park.

So some stolen base I can't even recall reminds you of "magic" more than a sixth seed, 17 point underdog beating a previously unbeaten team that every ESPN faggot was calling the best team ever assembled, in a particularly physical and confident manner?

>>9372224

considering the history of the teams involved in each game, yeah. Red Sox had the whole bambino/86 years/bucky fucking dent/aaron fucking boone thing around their necks.

I imagine if the Cubs pulled off some as miraculous as 2004 it would be even more amazing.

The Giants had gone what, 15 years?

jesus, get over your boston/ny buttrage /sp/

the only thing that is comparable with 18-1 is the Miracle on Ice

>>9372249

And this one stolen base could not possibly have much to do with a 3 game win streak. For that matter, winning three games is not a "moment." Ortiz's homer had to have been more important than this steal anyway.

The greatest moment in sports history is the "invincible," 18-0, chasing history, evil, cheating, most hated team in all of American sports getting upset by some pack of written off chumps. See picture.

>>9372269

Good News: You have never been on the wrong side of The Greatest Moment.
Bad News: You've never even been close to being on the good side of The Greatest Moment.

>>9372285

You need to understand the difference between cheating and breaking the rules. A facemask penalty is breaking the rules, illegally taping opposing defensive signals so you can adjust your offensive playcalling to exploit the defensive scheme is cheating.

Attempting to slap the ball out of a player's glove is breaking the rules, steroids is cheating.

>Ortiz
>A-Rod
>60% of the rest of the MLB

>>9372329

Do you honestly believe that teams haven't been filming practices forever?

If you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin' bro.

Grow up.

/thread

>>9372329

dude NOBODY cares about steroids except sportswriters who need to make a deadline and fans of shit tier teams who need a scapegoat.

>>9372345

Which team was the only one caught doing it? Which team was the only one caught doing it after the NFL sent out a memo explaining exactly how it was illegal and how it would not be tolerated?

And it wasn't filming practices, it was filming the defensive signals sent from the bench during games.

>mfw 0-4 is clearly greater than 18-1 but it isn't recognized by /sp/ since the board didn't exist when it happened

>>9372360

also /sp/ cares

steroids are an easy way for autistic shut-ins to accuse pro athletes of not actually practicing and working out for most of their lives, but just being fat and lazy like them and popping a magic pill that makes them wake up swole the next day

>>9372533
>>9372508

>>9372360
actually, the only people who don't care are those who are fans of admitted or widely assumed steroid users and are butthurt that their favorite players will never be in the HOF

so Giants, A's, Cardsfags and Yankeefags mostly.

>>9372508
My man. Probably because 18-1 is more recent as well.

>you will never feel the pain of getting second place in your domestic league, your domestic cup and the champions league in the same season

>>9372508
I don't know, buffalo is a small town and the bills have few fans. the past have a larger fanbase and represent a larger population that spends their time bandwagoning and shit talking.

the pleasure to be gained from watching a team choke is knowing that you can rub shit in the face of all their fans. rubbing shit in the face of bills fans wouldn't have been very satisfying if you could find any

Amazing, but not the best.

let's not be stupid here.

the correct answer is OBVIOUSLY the Flyers coming back from 0-3 in game 7 in Boston in a series in which they trailed 3 games to 0.

Chelsea in 2008. Ballack was involved both times.

euro here, from a neutral perspective the Yankees choke in 2004 was far bigger than 18-1.

>>9372828
Sup Bostonfan.

>>9372840
nope.avi

The 2004 ALCS was just a big dick-measuring contest between Boston and New York. Nobody really cared. 18-1, on the other hand, was the classic story of the douchebags getting their comeuppance in the most hilarious way imaginable.

>>9372859

sup jew york

>>9372873
Nope. Redskins fan. The Patriots got what was coming for cheating and running up the score.

>>9372859
Doesn't matter. 2004 was still a far bigger CHOKE where the biggest team in baseball were embarassed to an extent that had never happened before and will probably never happen again.

>>9372820
in that case
>ballack

>>9372886

THIS

>>9372886
The Patriots blew a chance to achieve something that probably won't ever happen again in my lifetime, and it just so happened that they blew it in the only game that really matters at the end of the day. Compare that to the Yankees, who are perennial favorites. It wasn't like they blew their only chance to win the World Series.

And before I get accused of being a New Yorker, I'm a Detroit fan and I find the NY-Boston rivalry to be a huge circlejerk. If you replaced the Red Sox, the 2004 ALCS would lose most of its magic, but if you replaced the Giants with any other team in Super Bowl XLII it'd still be just as memorable

>>9372984

nice try jew yorkfag.

NOBODY has ever blown a 3-0 lead in MLB history but the '04 Yankees. Factor in the history behind it and nothing comes close to it. Not saying 18-1 isn't lulzy but damn, give it up.

19-0 was a unique opportunity for the Patriots. After they lost in '04, Yankees fans just said "Oh well, we'll just win it next year" and could keep a straight face knowing there was a good chance of that happening. The Patriots couldn't sit down after Super Bowl XLII and say to themselves "It's okay, we'll just go 19-0 next year instead" and actually believe it.

>>9372580
ballack even made 2nd place in world cup too that season..

>>9373057

confirmed for not having paid attention in '04

you're full of shit if that's how you think yankeefag reacted

99 CL final

I'm sorry it HAS to be 18-1.

First, the Patriots were hated. After the scandals were let out everyone was raging. It doesn't matter if others did it, they got caught and people were pissed.

Second, the Giants were not even considered to have a winning chance. Brady was dominating his opponents and scoring at will that season.

And I mean there are lots of other reasons too. This was going to be the perfect season of 19-0, the amazing helmet catch, and pretty much the whole game was great. And it was against Eli.. not Peyton.

I'm an A's fag, and even I got caught up in it. You're being dishonest.
