Just watched a Yankeeography profiling this team. Probably the best team I've seen. The 1977 and 1978 teams will always be my favorites, but I forgot how good the '98 team was. What is the best team and season you have personally seen -- any sport.

probably one of the top 5 Yankee teams of all time... In my life time I would have to say the 61 Yanks where the best... of all time its close but probably the 27 Yanks could be considered the best baseball team ever!

Topper, the 61 yanks were before my time, but would be right up there. Wish I could have seen them. Comparisons across eras are impossible if you haven't seen them.....

Murderers Row....."THE BEST" of all time........Although waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy before my time. The same with the '61 Yanks too. I remember the '78 team, they were great. So was the '98 team. Alot of people take for granted just how terrific they were, imho.

Like jimbud said "Comparisons across eras are impossible if you haven't seen them....." ,Which is true. That being said, having seen the only the '78 and '98 teams..... the '98 Yankees were better, of those two that is, imo.

In my 30 years, only one team stands out.

2001 Miami Hurricane fball: Other than the 92 Dream Team bball in Barcelona, which shouldn't count, this Miami team is the best team I have ever seen in any sport.

-Willis McGahee

-Clinton Portis

-Frank Gore

-Antrelle Rolle

-Ed Reed

-Sean Taylor R.I.P

-Johnathan Vilma

-Vincent Wilfork

-Bryant McKinnie

-Kellen Winslow

-Roscoe Parrish

-Jeremy Shockey

-Andre Johnson!

the team went 11-0.

When I was a kid Strat-o-Matic was a big game, since it was all based on statistical data you got a pretty good feel for the teams. As they had a all time great team play you got to play historical teams against each other..

So many of my opinions are based on a board game!!! Oh the 22 Giants featured a team where all 8 position players batted over 300!!! they where tough to beat!!! my favorite team of all time will always be the 61 yanks, as a little kid Mantle and Maris were gods!!!

1983 Philadelphia 76ers

They broke through during the Celtics / Lakers stranglehold and set a then record for most wins in a season. Then beat down earlier mentioned Celtics and Lakers. Dr. J, Moses, Andrew Toney, Maurice Cheeks. The only others to compare were Wilts Championship teams. Back then, you won with only five men on the floor; not the eight of current years.

Yeah and this year's version is a complete embarassment to the Yankee Legacy. Underperforming, overpaid, lazy heartless bunch.

When is Girardi going to be fired? He makes the worst decisions, for a catcher he doesn't know how to handle a bullpen, he can't motivate anyone, his lineup decisions are terrible, his insistance to play Posada is criminal. When he needs to be invisible he is doing something stupid, when he needs to manage a situation he does nothing but sit there and suck on his braces.

Let's not forget Boston and Tampa started 0-6, Boston went to 2-10 now they are in first place...

Well... I'd have to say the 1989 San Francisco 49'ers. Probably a tie with the 1994 49'ers.

Both teams whomped a s s and won the Superbowl.
