  • 2019 was a good year for the long suffering.  Each of the 4 teams that won titles had not won in many, many years, or had never won, or both.

    Chiefs had not win since 1969

    Blues had not won since created in late 60s

    Same with the Washington Nationals/Montreal Expos franchise

    Raptors had never won.

    Hope for the Browns/Indians?   Who, as you will notice are 2 of the 10 franchises that have waited the longest for a champion.   And note that Cleveland is the only city with two teams in that "bottom 10".  (Atlanta has 2 in the bottom 12)

  • Also note, of those  botton 10 teams......6 of them have actually moved their location.  

    e.g.  the Cardinals have been in AZ since only 1988...and had move to and from St. Louis in the mean time. 

    And see the others.    So, in reality, the fan bases  that have waited the longest are:

    1. Cleveland Indians

    2. Detroit Lions

    3. Minnesota Vikings

    4. Cleveland Browns

    5. Buffalo Bills.

    The Curse  of Lake Erie....since 4 of these 5 teams sit on the east, center, or western end of that Lake.
