Exactly.

Easy now! 

At least some of the cities mentioned still have an NBA team. 

Parkview Little league LLWS champions 2009
San Diego Soccers (Indoor Soccer) were like 10 time champions
San Diego Gulls (minor league hockey) i think won a seasons best record or something

SD is sorry

I still do this when I think back to that Vikings/Saints OT NFC title game...
Brett and that damn cross body throw interception.

The 98' 15-1 season.... perfect all year, missed the damn game winning FG..

The 2001 season .. lose 41-0 to Giants in NFC title game...

Now Christian Ponder as our QB of the future

I read "Which Region in America has the most longsuffering" and immediately thought Cleveland. I'll stick with Cleveland

Insert typical "living where I do sucks, we haven't won at anything in god knows how many years. I'm such a great fan for putting up with this, *pats myself on the back and hopes others give me e-props*" comment here.

*insert "My team just won a championship so I don't see what the big deal is" fans here*

If it wasn't for KU basketball (or the '08 Orange Bowl KU football team) the KC area would be hurting...we only have two pro teams (out of the four major sports) but the Royals SUCK and the Chiefs haven't won a playoff game since '93. And not to mention I'm also a Suns fan...man smh. Thank God for KU basketball.

I know there are other cities that have it worse...but for being the capital of the world essentially, D.C. has been in struggle mode for far too long all across the board. 

Capitals
Bullets/Wizards
Orioles
********


Things might finally be changing around as the District has some talented young players, hopefully championships follow.

Not to mention situations in sports that affected to us en route to not winning anything. The Drive, fumble, the shot, Jose Mesa, getting robbed for our football team, getting our team back, getting Lebron the way we did, and than losing him to the Decision. And we're still here.

If you look at every other city in the US, they can claim some type of championship within at least 20 years. NY, LA, CHI, BOSTON, PHI, NJ, PHI, ATL, MIA, DAL, HOU, PIT, SF, OAK CIN, MIN, TOR, etc.

Those teams can claim a championship in one of their last 25 years. Us? We've doubled that. This city needs a championship more than anything. That's why I respect us Cleveland fans. It's inevitable though, we'll get one eventually - and +#@! is going to be swweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeter than old Sadie

< Well, damb.

That was sad as hell

Atleast you dont have Alex Smith

 

[|A-Man|]

Longsuffering is not a word. I didn't come in here at first cuz I thought it said longsurfering which I thought was some surfer thing.

Chicago Cubs, NY Mets, NY Jets (sorta since they haven't won it all but suffering comes from being really good but not good enough), KNICKS.

The feel, I know it. 

I'm still optimistic for Ponder though.. not a lot.. but whatever, can't really do much but hope for the best.  I think the kid will be alright.. he showed some flashes of decency last season.

Vikings. Our generation has all these heartbreaking NFC Championship losses, while our Dad's had to go through 4 Super Bowl losses. A curse that passes down from generation to generation.
