My Top 10 Favourite World Series

Okay, I know I'm going to create controversy. Get ready to think, "What about ?" Remember, this is my list!

10) 1977 World Series

Game 6: Reggie once, twice, three times...

9) 1903 World Series

The first World Series. You gotta start somewhere!

8) 2004 World Series

1918 is uttered no more by long suffering Red Sox fans!

7) 1952 World Series

The Mick wins games 6 and 7 with homeruns. It doesn't get any better than that!

6) 1956 World Series

Grand Larsen(y) in game 5!

5) 1991 World Series

Would be a lot higher on the list if the Twins didn't beat my beloved Jays in the ALCS

4) 1975 World Series

Game 6, need I say more?

3) 1986 World Series

Same as #10 and #4, but with a little roller up along first...

2) 1992 World Series

My beloved Jays finally get it done. Devo makes The Catch That Should Have Resulted In A Triple Play!

1) 1993 World Series

Two words: Joe Carter!
