1. Boston Red Sox - Duh.
2. San Antonio Spurs - You may not call them a dynasty, but with 4 rings in 9 years, they couldn't care less what you think.
3. New England Patriots - Maybe the most dominating 10-game run by a team ever... now can they finish the job?
4. University of Florida Men's Basketball Team - Capped off a rare NCAA mini-dynasty with their 2nd consecutive championship.
5. Indianapolis Colts - They actually won a Super Bowl in 2007. Who knew?

1. University of Florida - How can you argue with somebody who won championships in two sports?
2. Boston Red Sox - Didn't want to look like a homer and give them number 1...
3. San Antonio Spurs - Made LeBron's Cavs look like a AAA basketball team.
4. New England Patriots - I know Indy won the Super Bowl, but that seems like too long ago. The Pats own right now.
5. Anaheim Mighty Ducks - They play a sport called hockey.

[edit] The Pip

1. New England Patriots - A run at one of the most prestigious marks in team sports history.
2. Boston Red Sox - Expected to win and did. And it was the Red Sox?!?!? This is almost even more shocking than actually winning it in '04.
3. Boston Celtics - Can you say homer? I knew you could. This spot can/will change, but for now undefeated is undefeated.
4. Colorado Rockies - Their run was one of the most amazing and surprising in sport history. Congrats, and welcome to a nice stretch of success, go make Joe Torre cry.  ;)
5. University of Notre Dame - Their "Football" team. They can stay, but only if they keep losing and making me happy. I'm not just a homer!
