The best sports story I have ever seen was the 2004 playoffs run, when the Red Sox came back from a 3-0 alcs series deficit. They were playing  the New York Yankees and were down by everyone and no one would thought they would come back. Big Papi had two walk off performances, and they had such resiliency to keep their best game. The pitching was outstanding from Schilling, Martinez, and Papelbon. I remember staying up late for this games and believing. They went on to win the world series.
