Mazz's Tiers: Most Gratifying Championships in Boston Sports since 1980

[@jet0819]

08 Celtics is just a wild inclusion given the state of the franchise the 20 years prior Every playoff series was difficult, took down prime LeBron and Kobe’s Lakers in the finals. WILD inclusion.

A totally WRONG inclusion!

I agree with most of this ... except the 2004 Patriots not gratifying?? That's such a hindsight take. In 2004, that was when the Pats dynasty was born. They had won 2 superbowls before that. Plenty of other teams had won 2 before. It was fun, but it wasn't that special all things considered.... But when Brady/Belichick won their 3rd Superbowl in 4 years in 2004, that's when it was game over this team is special.. especially bringing down McNabb who was perhaps the most hyped QB at the time. I'm not even a Pats fan but I lived in Boston at that time and that's when the team was fully realized as elite.

2008 celtics what ?? Beating lakers and finally winning wow i dont agree on that one lots to live up to with trade after ping pong balls didnt drop right

[@Cureguy1]

2008 Celtics extremely gratifying. Len Bias dying, Reggie Lewis dying, two massive cornerstones for the future gone. Not getting Duncan in the draft. 22 years in between championships. Mazz is a douche!

‘01 Pats will remain #1 for my life. Close second is ‘16 Pats…seeing RG have to present the trophy to Kraft, and then seeing Brady raise it after all the deflategate crap was awesome.

Only a rich man would say which of his millions was satisfying and which were meh.

Everytime this song comes on, I think of sabbath no more tears

Disagree with 2013 Red Sox. The energy was lower compared to the rest of these championships. I’d swap that with 2004 Patriots. Becoming a dynasty set the tone for the two decades which followed.

[@Cureguy1]

Getting to win the Series at Fenway was a blast with Uehara on the mound. Loved every minute of it.

[@carvelmile]

These championships SUCK, Mike!!!!!

2007 Red Sox........the ALCS was the great, but the Word Series was so boring.

[@Noname33336]

Same with the 2004 Sox….ALCS with Yanks was amazing which took away from the World Series sweep

[@matttittle7788]

@@Noname33336 good point.
