The Habs and Patrick Waaaaaahhhhh, of course.
Seriously, I was very undecided. I ultimately decided to sort of hope the Sox won because I thought that they had made it there more on luck, and because I thought that the 1986 Mets team was so dominant (pitching? Gooden, Darling, Ojeda, Fernandez, with Orosco and McDowell closing; hitting? Straw, Hernandez, Carter, Mitchell; speed? Wilson, Dykstra, Backman) that they would have won for the rest of the decade.
And they should have, dammit. Thinking about all that wasted talent still pisses me off, and don't even get me started about Bobby Bonilla.
