Page 2's Power Poll dares to rate the teams that are currently wielding the most power in the entire sports universe.

Each week, our poll will rank the 10 teams at the top of the power heap -- and the five teams that have lost the most power in the past week. And, by the way, Page 2 uses its own definition for a "team" -- any group of two or more bonded together for the common purpose.

Our Momentum Meter also predicts the direction these teams will be heading in future weeks (see the bottom of the page for a full explanation).

If you've got anything to say about our Top 10 or our Bottom 5, click here to comment -- or forever hold your peace.

TEAM		PAGE 2 SAYS	MO' METER
1. The legend that is Robert Horry		He couldn't take your grandmother off the dribble, but is there anybody -- anybody -- you'd rather have take the clutch 3 for your team? Or your life?
2. The legend that is Shawn Green		He had a better week last week than the season Mo Vaughn is going to have.
3a. Game 3 Boston Celtics		A comeback for the ages.
3b. Game 4 New Jersey Nets		Page 2 would have bet our free-lance budget for the year that the Nets could not have come back from that Game 3 fiasco. As they say, that's why they play the games.
5. Colorado Avalanche		Thanks to the spleenless Peter Forsberg and the splendid St. Patrick Roy, the defending Stanley Cup champions are one game from knocking off the favored Red Wings.
6a. Boston Red Sox		Still have the best record in baseball ...
6b. New York Yankees		... but the Bronx Bombers are hitting home runs at a near-record pace ...
6c. Seattle Mariners		... and the M's still look like the best all-around team in the game, though they could use another playoff-caliber starter.
9. Helio Castroneves' racing team		The Indy 500 ain't what it used to be, but two wins in a row -- the first driver to pull off that feat since Al Unser in 1970 and 1971 -- is still pretty impressive.
10. Sacramento Kings		Probably the best team in the NBA, but the Lakers -- to put it mildly -- seem to have their number.
ALSO RECEIVING VOTES: Arizona Diamondbacks, Anaheim Angels, Cincinnati Reds, Toronto Maple Leafs, Syracuse men's lacrosse, California women's softball, Barry Bonds, Jim Furyk, B.B. King, "Attack of the Clones," "Spider-Man," "Friends"

TEAM		PAGE 2 SAYS	MO' METER
5. Boston Celtics fans		For their classless chant of "wife beater!" at the Nets' Jason Kidd.
4. Texas Rangers		The owner of the Worst Team Money Can Buy bails out, claiming he is determined to at least break even on the bottom line, if not in the AL West. Which means the Rangers won't be re-signing All-Star catcher Ivan Rodriguez, among others. As Branch Rickey once said to Ralph Kiner, "We finished last with you, and we can finish last without you."
3. National League East		The Mets and Braves are tied for first, three games over .500. To put that in perspective, 12 teams in baseball have better records.
2. Pete Sampras		Ousted in the first round (yes, again) from the only major he hasn't won -- the French Open -- by virtual unknown Andrea Gaudenzi of Italy (ranked No. 69 in the world), Sampras seems to be playing with a huge fork sticking out of his back.
1. New York Post		First, they print a blind item about a Mets star rumored to be gay. Then, after Mike Piazza is forced to proclaim his heterosexuality, the Post's Wally Matthews writes a column criticizing his own paper. Then the Post refuses to run the column as written, so Matthews quits, publishing the column on a website. Then the Post claims Matthews was fired. Who's running that operation, a bunch of Australians?
ALSO RECEIVING VOTES: Tampa Bay Devil Rays, Toronto Blue Jays, Oakland A's, Chicago Cubs, Milwaukee Brewers, David Wells, Mark Martin racing team, FIFA, "Maybe It's Me"
