Topic: Worst team in professional sports? Posted: July 11 2006 at 15:43 |
In Chicago, I was a Cubs fan (and still am). I was born in Michigan, and I live here again. So, I am a Tigers, and Lions fan. I guess I like the underdog.

Not a sports fan at all, but I live in Houston, Texas, so I know how bad our football team is.

Whoa dude, I live in K.C. too! Never been a Royals/Chiefs fan, but am inclined to agree with Whitlock on this. The Royals have been pathetic for many years now. Some folks talk about the glory days of 20+ years ago, but they might as well be talking about some other team because there is nothing glorious now. I am far more likely to be seen at a Wizards game. I love soccer and in this country it needs all the support it can get.

Then we others couldn't care less about your opinion, in fact you don't even have to post if you're not interested in the subject!

Being a Pittsburgh native, I must agree with you wholeheartedly.

Couldnt agree with you more, the day they hired Jean Todt as principal was the day the Ferrari spirit died for me.

how about the Arizona Cardinals? They're the oldest pro football team around and have a post-season record of 2-5. It doesn't get much worse

Royals are a solid pick.

No matter how well a Cleveland team is doing, they will fall apart at some point (if they didn't suck from the get-go). Not even Lebron James can stop the Cleveland Sports Curse.

So true...
Really though, has to be the New Orleans Saints. They had a record of 3-13, lost to Green Bay (who only had a 4-12 record on the year) by a score of 52-3, then finished the season by losing 10 of their last 11. The only team they managed to beat after Week 4 was the New York Jets by one lousy point, and the Jets had their 3rd string quarterback in the game. Terrible!
