And I Thought Chicago was the Most Miserable Sports City

Forbes has compiled a list of the ten most miserable sports cities in the US according to how well their pro teams have fared in championships. Now, I would have figured Chicago would have been on the list because of our Cubbies, but not so.

Forbes used a complicated set of criteria and also mentioned sports teams lost to other cities over the years.

Here is the list and teams lost:

1. Atlanta-- Flames
2. Seattle-- none-- How about MLB's Pilots?
3. Buffalo-- Braves
4. Phoenix-- none
5. San Diego-- Rockets and Clippers
6. Houston-- Oilers
7. Denver-- NHL's Rockies
8. Cleveland-- Rams, Barons, original Browns
9. Philadelphia-- Athletics, Warriors
10. Minneapolis-St. Paul-- Lakers, North Stars

We'll make a separate category for the long-suffering Cubbies.
