Now lets take a vote. Even you non Amreicans can way in on this. Now if you have two baseball teams which woudl you think if the better one [img]smile.gif[/img]
Team A ( aka boston) who sold a player who at the time was considered the gretest in the game ever and who even now over 60 years latter is still considred the greatest just so you could use the money to bankroll a flop of a play on Broadway and in the 70+ years since have only managed to go to the championships once back in the 1970's) and got embarressed there.

or

Team B ( aka Yankees) who have played in almost 50% of the championship finals for the past 80 years and has won over 30% of the total championships. Including having played the last six finals and winning four of them.
