I voted for apples and oranges for this reason:
One was to get to the finals and the other was to win the finals. If you modify the answer of beating the Yanks for straight followed by sweeping St. Louis, then it's a fair comparison.
If I had to answer that question then it would be the Sox in a landslide only because I had the 80's with the Celts and had never seen the Sox win it all. That being said, the win on Tuesday night was sweeter than the 07 Sox.
The key comparison I have between the examples put forth is the tremendous lack of sleep.
See, I think given the past history with Yankees and the way they were down 3-0 in the ASCS evens things up pretty well for the Sox. And given that they steamrolled through the World Series you can pretty much surmise that the REAL championship was won in the ALCS. The World Series was a cakewalk after breaking through NY.
Any way you slice it though the 4th quarter of Game 6 the other night had me sore from smiling. Who knew taking candy from a baby was so enjoyable?
