<![CDATA[Last Title by Franchise Fall 2018]]> After the Boston Red Sox  won the World Series here is the list of all 125? 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.

Funny isn't it how one lucky bounce or play either way can keep you on or off of a list forever!

Yea, except though for like the Lions,   Sac. Kings, Atlanta Hawks. etc, etc,  

About half the teams that have not won since the 60s  came thisclose, as mentioned,   several others haven't come close to having a sniff at a title.

I have always found the bottom of this list to be the most interesting part.  Particularly, looking at the teams that have not won since before 1970 you see:

Cardinals.....think how close they came in that Super Bowl vs.  Pitt

Indians.... Two World Series that have gone into extra innings in Game 7!!  F.U.C.K

Rangers....they were 1 strike away from winning the WS not long ago

Bills.....a wide right FG

Falcons....had a SB won really until they choked.

and maybe others.

And who can get off the schneid now?    In the NFL, maybe the Vikings, and the Chiefs look like a real possibility.
