What is your own Number 1 Favorite Championship Won by Your Number 1 Favorite in Each of the 4 Main Professional U.S. Sports ?
For an Example, Here are My own Favorites below. (If you don't have a Favorite Team and are Not a Fan of All 4 Sports then that is Perfectly Fine, You can just go with the ones that you are a Fan of. )
MLB (LA Dodgers): 1988 - LA Dodgers 4, Oakland 1
NBA (LA Lakers): 2010 - LA Lakers 4, Boston 3
NFL (St.Louis/LA Rams): SB 34 - St.Louis 23, Tennessee 16
NHL (LA Kings): 2014 - Los Angeles 4, NY Rangers 1 --------------------------
What about everybody else here ?

The Eagles and Sixers have only won one each in my lifetime so by default I’ll go with those. The Flyers last won when I was 5 so while I’ve seen the highlights I certainly don’t remember the actual games. For the Phillies I’ll say 1980 over 2008.

MLB - LA Dodgers: 1988 (over A's) NBA - LA Lakers (no longer): 1985 (over Celtics) NFL - Pittsburgh Steelers: 1978 (over Cowboys) NHL - Pittsburgh Penguins: 2009 (over Red Wings)
With all that being said, my favorite championship ever was Penn State beating Miami in the 1986 season (1987 Fiesta Bowl) to get the championship.

In our lifetime, I presume?
The Celtics have won four titles in my lifetime, but I wasn't yet a basketball fan for the first three. So it's 2008 for them. Basketball is my favorite sport, and Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett are among my favorite Boston athletes of all time. It's the only championship parade I've ever attended.
Bruins have only won one title in my lifetime, so easy choice: 2011.
Patriots. Man, I don't know. It's a toss up between Super Bowl XXXVI (their first title, a team called the Patriots winning the title the season 9/11 occurred) and Super Bowl LI (greatest comeback in Super Bowl history, ultimate middle finger to Goodell for the bullshit Brady suspension). I honestly can't decide.
Red Sox has to be 2004, but 2013 is an underrated title run. That 2013 team had no business winning a title, they weren't built for it. But the marathon bombing happened and as cliche as it sounds, it galvanized the team all season long and 'Boston Strong' carried them to a title. Still have to go with 2004, though. Reverse the Curse, down 0-3 to the Yankees after 86 years of misery and the ultimate gut punch the previous season. Baseball is my least favorite of the four major sports yet this is probably my favorite title overall.

2004 Red Sox, by far. Kind of easy, since the Bills and Sabres are kind of lacking.
The 1987 Fiesta Bowl was sweet, although it was more Miami beating themselves.

2007 Giants (Shocking is an understatement.)
1994 Rangers (That was a fun Summer too bad the Knicks choked in the NBA finals at the same time.)
1986 Mets (I was way too young to care but still gotta put it in here.)
1973 Knicks (I did not exist back then, hell My parents were 16 & 12 at the time and had not even met.)

The first one by the Niners, SF Giants, and the 2015 Warriors. The A's won that World Series in 89 but it was the quake series that messed it all up. I'd like to see them win one while i'm still alive.

NHL - Leafs won the 2014 Winter Classic at the Big House. So yeah... I've no personal history with any of the 13 Cups.
MLB - 1992 WS Blue Jays. The culmination of their outstanding late 80's run.
NBA - 2018-19 Toronto f'n Raptors.
NFL - SB XLIX Patriots Tom Brady'd & Malcolm Butler'd the Seahawks for their 4th title. Their strongest SB opponent to date, & the game was pretty f'n entertaining.
MLS - Toronto FC 2017... domestic treble.
Liverpool - Miracle of Istanbul ...for a club utterly incapable of winning the Premier League (until this season pretty much), they've done alright in CL.
NCAAF - 1994 Orange Bowl - Florida State's first National Championship. lols Notre Dame.
