<![CDATA[Last Title by Team, Fall 2013]]> After the Red Sox win in the World Series, here is the list of all 124? current major league franchises in the 4 major sports with the last year in which that team won a title, or the year the franchise was created if they have never won a title (noted as YO for Year of Origin). I have included the Seattle Supersonics as a separate franchise from the OK City Thunder as the Sonics are supposed to be simply an "inactive" franchise, not a defunct franchise or the same as the Thunder franchise.

If most frustrated/ tortured = best... then, yes...

It's not just the time that's passed...

It's the times we have gotten close... in each of our three major league sports.

And don't get me started on the Crusaders/ Barons... 🙂

Those Cleveland NHL teams were never given an opportunity to succeed, were they? Either moved or contracted in their first couple of years here before they even got going.

Chicago: Cubs

Sacramento: Kings #

Detroit: Lions

Philadelphia: Eagles

Dallas: Rangers

Minn./St. Paul: Vikings

Nashville (Tenn): Titans#

Houston: Astros

St. Louis: Blues

Denver: Nuggets

Toronto: Maple Leafs

Cincinnati: Bengals

New York: Jets

Washington: Nationals#

Milwaukee: Brewers (note: Bucks not since 1971)

Kansas City: Chiefs

LA: Clippers#

Vancouver: Canucks

Phoenix: Suns, Cardinals#

San Diego: Chargers, Padres

Buffalo: Bills, Sabre

Atlanta: Hawks, Falcons

Cleveland: Browns, Indians, Cavaliers

# means team moved to that city from elsewhere

Of course Cleveland has the most teams on this list. And note the inequity in this for example:

New York/NJ has had the following teams all win titles since 1970: Yankees, Mets, Giants, Knicks, Nets, Rangers, Devils, Islanders

LA/Anaheim has had the following teams all win titles since 1970: Dodgers, Angels, Lakers, Ducks, Kings, even the Raiders who have since moved.

Boston has had all four of its teams win titles just in the last decade.

Even Pissburg has had all three of its teams win titles since 1970.

So, the obvious conclusion to be made from this: Cleveland has the best, most loyal fan base in America for its sports teams. Fair to say?
