I dont think either team can be labelled as a choker after that.
Best game ever? It's up there.
Biggest bunch of chokers ever? The Atlanta Braves. And (some, pretty stupid) people get on the Spurs for not being clutch.

Chokers?
Who picked this young team to win the division????
Not one national pundit picked Atlanta, they all picked Florida.
The Braves played very good ball all year long and were beaten by the best staff in baseball, which is no shame at all.
Jim,
Check your PM's!
Game six in '86 between Hou and NYM was probably the best game I ever saw but I have only watched it once. The details escape me but I do remember Bob Knepper pitching his butt off and Billy Hatcher hitting the foul pole for that game tying homerun.
The '86 Mets have to be one of the greatest squads ever assembled. And I hated them.
I watched the last 4 or 5 innings of yesterdays game so I guess it's not fair for me to vote. I hope it will be replayed as an instant ESPN classic.
Sigh. Chokers as in "14 straight trips to the playoffs, exactly ONE WS to show for it." Plus had a huge lead in this game and blew another one.
If the Braves are chokers, what does that make the Stros?
