Interestingly,  the Blues and Raptors  titles were the very first by those particular franchises.   Following is the list of each team in each sport which has never won a championship in their history:

NFL

Minnesota Vikings, Atlanta Falcons,  Cincinnati Bengals,  Carolina Panthers, Jacksonville Jaguars,  Houston Texans.

MLB

Washington Nationals/Expos, San Diego Padres, Texas Rangers, Milwaukee Brewers, Seattle Mariners, Colorado Rockies, Tampa Bay Rays

NHL

Vancouver Canucks, Buffalo Sabres, San Jose Sharks, Ottawa Senators, Florida Panthers, Nashville Predators, Winnipeg Jets/Thrashers, Columbus Bluejackets, Minnesota Wild, Las Vegas Golden Knights

NBA

Denver Nuggets, Phoenix Suns  LA Clippers(Braves), Utah Jazz, Charlotte Hornets, Minnesota Timberwolves, Orlando Magic, New Orleans Pelicans, Oklahoma City Thunder#

# for OKC...it depends on whether it is considered the same franchise as the Seattle Sonics...who did win a championship

[The Gipper]

The following franchises are those where their last title was won in a different city than their current one;

Oklahoma City Thunder....if you consider this the same franchise as the Seattle Supersonics

Oakland Raiders....as the LA Raiders

Phoenix Coyotes...as the Winnipeg Jets WHL

Brooklyn Nets....as the New Jersey Nets

LA Chargers...as the San Diego Chargers AFL 1963

Tennessee Titans....as the Houston Oilers AFL 1961

Atlanta Hawks...as the St. Louis Hawks NBA 1958

Sacramento Kings...as the Rochester Royals  NBA 1951

Arizona Cardinals...as the Chicago Cardinals  NFL 1947

[The Gipper]

These are the 10 franchises that have waited the longest to win:

1964 Cleveland Browns NFL
1963 LA/San Diego Chargers AFL
1961 Tennessee Titans fka Houston Oilers AFL
.....Minnesota Vikings no titles YO
.....Texas Rangers fka Washington Senators no titles YO
1958 Atlanta/St. Louis Hawks NBA
1957 Detroit Lions NFL
1951 Sacramento Kings fka Kansas City/Cincinnati/Rochester Royals NBA

Everyone that logs on to this site should care.  It is called sports. It is about winning.   It is why these teams play the games.  It is why they have playoffs. It is why  they charge you to go to the games.  It is why this forum exists. It is why fans love their teams. Why they get mad about having gone so long without winning. The better question is why are you being a little  khunt bitch about it?  I see that your supposed interests include composing, arranging, producing.

I mean...who cares about any of that?  Really. Lennon and McCartney already perfected that craft...why should you bother?

If that were the case.. I wouldn't bother coming here or buy any browns gear.... The only team I care about is the Browns.. the other ones don't matter to me!

That's great.  But the Browns don't exist in a vacuum.  You have to put them into context with all the other teams in the NFL...with all the other teams in sports. We lament the fact that they have not won a title in so many years. All I try to do here is to put them...and the other Cleveland teams, in context with all other teams and to demonstrate that we are not alone in this frustration, though ours may be more acute. We must know the history and our place in it to make what hopefully would be a championship run by this team so meaningful. It was why the Cavs championship was so poignant. It is why we may say fuck a bunch of Boston who have won so much lately that another win by one of their team becomes meaningless to them. See below.

The   titles won in each of the major sports the last 5 years:

2019 Toronto Raptors NBA

2019 St. Louis Blues NHL

2018 New England Patriots  NFL

2018 Boston Red Sox MLB

2018 Golden State Warriors NBA

2018 Washington Capitols NHL

2017 Philadelphia Eagles NFL

2017 Houston Astros MLB

2017 Golden State Warriors NBA

2017 Pittsburgh Penguins NHL

2016 New England Patriots NFL

2016 Chicago Cubs MLB

2016 Cleveland Cavaliers NBA

2016 Pittsburgh Penquins NHL

2015 Denver Broncos NFL

2015 Kansas City Royals MLB

2015 Golden State Warriors NBA

2015 Chicago Blackhawks NHL

2014 New England Patriots NFL

2014 San Francisco Giants MLB

Boston and the Bay area have dominated the titles won the last 5 years.  Cleveland should have had another.
