Does Atlanta have the worst sports franchises with 4 teams

[lakerboy]

Off all the cities that have 4 pro sports teams is Atlanta in worse shape then all of them. Besides that 1 Braves win has this cities teams won anything.

Thrashers- disgrace to hockey- why did they give them a team
Hawks- decent this year but usually garbage
Falcons- they had an animal killer playing quarterback come on
Braves - they got 1 win with all that pitching in all that time

im not 100% sure but does any other city that has all 4 teams really suck this bad.

If they werent given the olympics(Donovan Bailey show) this might be the saddest city in North America-and thats saying alot considering Brooklyn is a city

[CaneDawg]

Georgia football dominates this state....not even close in importance

Braves may have won the World Series once, but they sure played in it multiple times and won a string of division titles along the way

but you do bring up a good point, which city is the worst??

I'd say Toronto, but that's prob just an opinion Nicky would 2nd..

Yep, Jays first World Series came in Atlanta vs the Braves.

I remember Roberto Alomar mimicking the tomahawk chop like it was yesterday.

The Jays second World Series Championship came at home in Toronto vs the Phillies thanks to a Joe Carter homer, the only time a World Series Championship has been won outside the US and A.

Toronto made MLB history.

You're cool, but I could never be ur ghost...Or maybe that's what you (I) want everyone to think!

Yep, I'm a supporter of everything about my hometown Toronto and a long suffering fan of the Blue and White.

Where exactly are you?

What is the New York Knicks payroll? Hawks with less payroll made the playoffs.

What is the Yankees payroll? Braves is about 1/3 and they have the same number of wins in the last 18 years.

This is how you judge success. The amount of wins/payroll ratio. Atlanta's is way much higher than New York's.

And when you come visit Atlanta I'd take you where the white folks live ignoramus.

Why would someone from Arizona hate the Leafs?

Thats like someone from Toronto hating the Cardinals or Diamondbacks.

Doesn't happen.

We only participate in hating Quebec up here, its the national pastime.

An ex is with a guy from Toronto who loves the Leafs like crazy

Need I say more?

He may get the girl, but I get the joy when the Leafs lose, sorry

[TheIntegrityKid]

May Toronto not win the Cup til I take the girl back...

LOL, I understand perfectly, no offense taken.

PS: Most if not all guys from Toronto love the Leafs, it's taught in local schools as the pledge of allegiance to the blue & white.

I like your chances.

One thing I learned long ago was not to get excited about the Leafs chances.

I've heard it all, been insulted etc. etc. I now have a thick skin regarding my beloved Leafs. Should they ever redeem themselves I will simply enjoy it, you know the way Bosox fans did when they ended their drought?

Whats my favourite Leaf insult ? 1967, that one cracks me up.
Especially when it comes from someone from Vancouver, where they (Canucks) have never won a Cup.

God bless you and your Leafs!

Only the Cards stop the worst being Arizona IMO. Love all the desert teams, fan of them all, but man do they all suck ballbags at the moment.

[mathdotcom]

Pavy if you had a bunch of teenage girls playing on Braves and paid them $1/hr, then even with 100% losses they might still be the most successful MLB team.

It is about success. Doesn't matter if it's bought.

Braves have 15 consecutive division titles between 1991 to 2005. How many did the Mets or the Phillies had during that span. Zero.

Enough said Mathy.

[lakerboy]

but the one time the phillies played the braves in the playoffs the phils kicked their ass. the mets dont count their from mars

[mathdotcom]

But the thread title says 'does Atlanta *have*...'. We are in the present and all know Braves are not what they used to be.

[pavyracer]

Falcons made the playoffs this year, Thrashers made the playoffs a couple years ago, same with Braves and Hawks made the playoffs this year and last year. There must be other cities who never had that much playoff success like the Atlanta teams.

Montreal? Only a hockey team..Expos LOL
Vancouver? Only a hockey team..Grizzlies LOL
Toronto? Leafs, Raptors, Jays..Noone made the playoffs

So how can Atlanta be the worst?

[Regul8er]

MINNESOTA isn't the best sports town either.

T-Wolves have been bad for a long time. (I don't think theyve EVER won a playoff series)
Twins really haven't made much noise for 20+ years.
The Wild make the playoffs here and there, but never a threat.
The Vikings haven't been very competitive since the days of Dante and Moss.

[KingRevolver]

The Braves have always been their best team. The Hawks have the talent but are too young and egotistical to play as a cohesive team.
