Team of the Decade, Prime 9

9. 01 Mariners
8. 00 Yankees
7. 03 Marlins
6. 07 Red Sox
5. 05 White Sox
4. 08 Phillies
3. 01 Diamondbacks
2. 09 Yankees
1. 04 Red Sox



I do not agree.

snubs

03 Yankees
06 Cards
02 Angels

and what about the 04 Cardinals that won 105, just because they got swept in the series by a retarded hot Red Sox....they seem to only care about teams that won the world series....just because you didn't win the world series, doesn't' necessarily mean you weren't the best team that year. I mean the 06 Mets were a great team, why aren't they anywhere on here? The Cardinals were unbeatable in the middle of the decade, the 01 Yankees were possibly better than the Diamonbacks

09 Yankees>04 Red Sox

The 2006 Cards won 83 games. There is no way they are in the "Team of the Decade" discussion, so long as the discussion is meant to identify the all-around best teams of the decade. You say their list is placing too much emphasis on winning the World Series (I pretty much agree on that), but the only way the 06 Cardinals are in the discussion is place an absurd amount of emphasis on winning the WS.

the snubs is what THEY wrote as the snubs...the 06 Cards aren't as good as the 04 Cards for example.

I don't agree with their list, or their snub list.

Oh, okay, I thought they were your snubs.

I would probably switch places with the 01 D'Backs and the 04 Red Sox, but thats just me.

Yeah, I don't think I've yelled as loud for any other team than my own when Gonzalez hit that bloop single. I was literally jumping up and down.

I was like 7 when it happened...i was lying in bed watching it with my parents, when he hit it i jumped and smoked my head on the headboard :D

the 01 WS? I watched it at my gf's house with her dad....I was 18

I for one did not watch it since I started watching it during the 2002 postseason.

One year late!

I started in 92 really paying attention.

Thomas, Griffey, and Bagwell were the best hitters I could think of around that time.
