Remember, the best team doesn't always win. That's why they play the games!

Looks like the Cavs are in deep doo-doo.

Cubs, down by 5, top of the 7th. Can they pull off the comeback?

This whole poll is completely suspect, as the Bengals haven't won. There is a complete lack of credibility in the poll, from the afore mentioned failure.

With 2 Super Bowl appearances in the last 25 years, that is better than any of the other 3.

I think if it was a poll from 1990 on, the Bengals would be the hands-down winner. But a pair of SB appearances in 80s, and near-wins at that, really mars their ability to claim sucky dominance since 1970, which is the timeframe for this contest.

Kodos, the Clips have had a winning record once in their history in LA under Sterling. That is sad
