Philadelphia:
1980 Phillies
1974 Flyers
1983 Sixers
2004 Eagles
Any city with a halfway decent sports tradition will be able to put together a very good list (Boston, New York, Chicago, Philly, et al.)

I'm from the Philly area, but I still have to say this is a weak list. The 1949 or 1960 Eagles would be a better choice than 2004, unless they win convincingly on Sunday. And the 1980 Phillies? They won the division on the next-to-last day of the season, squeaked through the NLCS with four extra-inning games winning the series 3-2, then beat an ordinary Royals' team in the Series.
