Don't forget Eli Manning screwing the Chargers over by demanding to go to a different team if drafted. Eventually they got Rivers, but he hasn't taken them to the promised land...meanwhile Eli has 2 rings. Brutal.

Top 10 Miserable Sports Cities (North America) *at least 2 pro teams
And the Cavaliers team has made two Finals appearances against the Spurs and Warriors,continuing the dynasty of the Spurs by getting swept and allowing the Warriors to win their first title in 40 years.
The Suns have been a regular fixture in the playoffs or a team that is in the playoff hunt for years, making some Finals appearances, but ultimately falling short each time to teams with more talent.
As a Houston fan, I was tempted to put them at #1 for constantly being a wasted opportunity for so much talent. But after research, I felt comfortable putting them at 5
The Reds are a team that defines baseball's heritage, being the first team. But they have had a tough go of things since Pete Rose got suspended for life. The team hasn't won a WS, and has struggled to win postseason serieses, and has struggled to even make the postseason.

The Rays are a team that entered like their football counterparts, but they found success for a time between the mid 2000s to the early 2010s, making the playoffs a few times, and losing to the Phillies in the 2008 WS.
With the recent success of the Heat, Miami is a town that can at least hang their hat on that achievement.
