Not even close to the biggest night in sports. The Red Sox won and the overhyped "curse" is over, but this team was considered by most to be the favorite in the world series. The win in the series against the Yankees was a bigger story than the world series victory. This isn't even in the same league as the miracle on ice. And in the last few decades in baseball, it pales in comparison to a few events. Hank Aaron's 715, for instance. Hell, I think McGwire's 62nd was a bigger national story. Not one time did a show I watch get interupted for a Barry Gibb at bat.
