NHL

Toronto Maple Leafs (41 years and counting baby, what's 25 more?!)

MLB

Pittsburgh Pirates or Milwaukee Brewers (without a fixed cap, small market, low spending teams don't have a chance)

I think the Brewers have a real chance....you can't lose your closer like they did though.

They have Fielder and Braun, pretty good nucleus in the middle now.

I never thought I'd say this but TB actually has the makings of a real team of the future, they even have a minor league full of arms...the D-Rays may have the best pitching in baseball throughout their minor leagues....

Still will be very difficulut to overtake the evil empires Bos and NYY over 162 games.

Don't be so sure about Toronto, they could wind up with the Bills. And the Bills are synonomous with championships.

I can't believe no has mentioned the worst franchise in the NFL due to the worst owners in the NFL:

The Arizona Cardinals!

I wouldn't dare name any MLB teams because it is the one sport in which teams surprise us the most year after year....

Cavs kept losing to the Bulls in the playoffs.. Cavs were the better team (price, nance, daugherty, ehlo, hot rod, etc) Michael kept stickin the dagger in 'em I've even seen interviews on espn classic with pippen and horace grant reflecting and saying cleveland had the best team but for some reason couldnt get past the bulls.. yeah "some reason" named MJ.. ill give you a reverse example... look at Pistons and Cavs now.. Detroit is better team, but Lebron can beat them single handedly.

i started to say memphis grizzlies but you got to remember they had a couple 50 plus win seasons under hubie brown and had a pretty good lineup there for a while too.if the grizzlies can get the right formula anything is possible but personally i don't like the grizzlies or follow them because my team is the college memphis tigers and also the owner threatening to move or sell the grizzlies.i have followed the memphis tiger basketball team since i was ten in '85 when they went to the final four and they've been pretty deep in the march madness a few times since including a couple elite eights recently.i'd say my three main teams are memphis tiger college baskets,tennessee titans pro football and the tennessee vols in college football and college baskets.i haven't been into the NBA since i was a celtics fan in the 80's growing up on larry bird the best man to ever play basketball besides michael jordan.somewhere right after jordan retired i really totally thought NBA sort of went downhill.

This is the one bet I make every year, since they blew the 3-0 lead in the AL Championship series. The New York Yankees will NOT win the World Series. I believe the Curse of Babe Ruth has been passed to them, and they will not see a title in 82 years.

Philly Eagles. With this fraud of a coach and these awful drafts, we have nowhere to go but down from here. We will see the brown bags about three years from now. this fraud has luck out tho because Gibbs and Parcells have left the division. When those two got back to coaching, i knew Andy's days of coaching against awful coaches were over.
