Who Has Milked Their One Championship More: 86 NY Mets or 08 Celtics?

I swear, you hear about one damn championship like both were a dynasty. The Mets done had like three or four 30 for 30s on their one championship era. Too bad the Cardinals deaded that run. The 08 Celtics been running stories for over a decade that you’d swear they won like 3 rings in their run.

Feel free to add on to one championship wonders that milk it for decades.

Edit: I could have included 97 scUM on the list as well, but you have to win a full championship to be considered in this.

 

Easily the 86 Mets

followed by the Superbowl III Jets

the Knicks milk 1994 and they didn't even win a title

 

Slight edge goes to the '86 Mets

 

86 Mets but that team has a far more interesting backstory & characters than the 08 Celtics

 

Dallas cowboys take this crowd

 

08 Celtics because those three wouldn’t have won a ring without it pretty much

it pushed all three past guys like Vince and others of that generation.

Boston sports media still has enough power that it helped them a lot too like the made that team a bridge to the Bird Celtics and Russell Celtics.

(same for Dirk too)

 

The Atlanta Fal--



greatest choke in history

 

Saints

 

Fixed

 

Negged

 

The 86 Mets but the thing about that team is…

They have a legit claim as the best team of the decade, had a dynamic cast of characters, their NLCS vs Houston is legendary in its own right, and their win in Game 6 of the World Series is probably the single greatest World Series game ever.

There is a lot to milk there.

On the other hand, who gives a shyt about the 2008 Celtics? Nobody remembers anything about that season other than Kevin Garnett screaming nothing is impossible. They were a “big three” that won 1 title. Less accomplished in the 2000s than the Detroit Pistons.

 

85 Bears

Even though they’re a GOAT team.

 

People that claim to hate the Celtics are the ones who talk about the 08 Celtics the most

For such an irrelevant one year wonder they live rent free in y'all heads

 

08 Celtics because legacies were saved/enhanced.
Mets were a collection of misfits who happened to win in spite of.
