    Seven games > one game. Plus, I hate both Texas and USC, so although it wasn't a great game, it didn't have that extra emotional push.

    But 2001 was classic. You have the dynasty and most celebrated sports team in history in the Yankees, and the four year expansion franchise in the Diamondbacks. You have Randy Johnson finally getting over the hump and winning four games in the World Series, you have Byung Kim crying on the mound, and the game winning hit coming from Arizona's hero against the best post season pitcher in history. Plus all of the other drama and close games.
    People look back on that series and think, "A Major League team wore purple and turquoise in actual games?"

    The 2001 World Series was the greatest sporting event I've ever personally witnessed. Don't be knocking baseball.
    I have to admit, it was the last World Series I enjoyed watching.

    Admittedly I was rooting for the D-Backs because Mark Grace went there.
    But still, Defeating the "Yankee Mystique" in game 7 with their "untouchable" closer on the mound was ing cool.
