    This is just mind-boggling to even think about. The Red Sox are one game away from a World Series title, the Patriots seem like they're playing D-1 AA scout teams, BC is in the BCS top five and the Celtics appear to be one of the favorites to represent the East in the NBA Finals. Plus, the college basketball season is upon us and the Eagles have a good team in that department, as well. Has any one city/region experienced such a ridiculous streak of across-the-board dominance in almost all of the major pro & college sports?

    Oh please. Don't try to tell me you haven't thought about this a couple of times.

    It's been brought up many times in the last few days on radio/TV. And it'll be a main topic for weeks, assuming the Patriots don't lose, because the start of the NBA season will keep it going.

    It was also excessively brought up in 2004, when the Patriots were coming off three of four Super Bowls. Old, old, old news. ::)

    Would anyone outside of BC's 36 diehard fans give a damn in Boston if they played for the BCS Championship (which they won't)?

    The Celtics have about as much of a chance of winning the NBA title as the Hawks. Jesus.

    Yes, but the Celtis will have reams of copy written about them on ESPN.com, so their story is gonna be rehashed and recycled ad nauseum all season.

    I would let the Boston teams win some titles first before calling them Titletown. And I'm talking more than just the Red Sox.

    Didn't SportsCenter have something on this tonight? Right after the 2008 prospectus on the Yankee-Red Sox rivalry?
