Watching the Sox now is becoming painful... but which collapse was worse - The Cubs of '69 or the Sox of '05?

The Red Sox in 78.
And the Royals were really good in '94.

My vote was for Rosie O'Donnell on a treadmill.

The '69 Cubs only blew a 9.5 game lead, I think. The 1995 Angels blew a 13.5 game lead. If the ChiSox keep up their act, I think theirs will be the biggest choke job ever. Not so good. ChiSox still have 5 games with the Indians - they just have to figure out how to beat them and they are set.

Sox in 78, they had a 10 game lead and blew it. The 05 sox have had a much slimmer lead all august - still tough to watch.

Don't forget the 1964 Phillies -- it's really hard to lose a six-and-a-half-game lead with 12 games left. But they pulled it off.

Thank you Joe Crede. This week is way too intense, I'm going nuts over here. And thank you for mlb.tv for allowing me to watch all this while 600mi from home in the Chicago burbs.

He's right. The Kansas City Royals were 64-51 in 1994; but 4 games behind the White Sox
The baseball strike 1994.
The end of play left the Expos leading their division with a 74-40 record. It was the best record in baseball that yr. (Why is there baseball in DC today?)
Players flirting w/50, maybe 60 homers. Players flirting w/.400 BA.
AND NO WORLD SERIES! First time no champion decided -- even thru other strikes, two World Wars, and terrorism.
