THIS WEEK'S TOP 5

Wednesday September 3rd, 2008

TOP 5 WORST SPORTS CITIES

Overview: With the NFL season bearing down upon us, it’s time for our average homage to football season via a weekly top list with a sports theme. This year, we’re finally getting around to one of our favorite conversations; the worst possible cities in America when it comes to sports.

Criteria: The fans are a huge part of this. Crappy, fair-weather bad sports in the stands go a long way to make a town a horrible place for sports. Also to be considered; facilities used by the teams, overall horrible-ness of the city itself and success (or lack thereof) of the teams. Only cities that have at least two major (NBA, MLB, NFL, NHL) male sports franchises can be considered.

Rob's Notes: I started by listing my worst of each criteria (for example: worst fans; Philadelphia and the SFO Bay area) and then seeing how many cities showed up multiple times. Picking the top 5 was pretty easy after that.

Arnie's Notes: Look here, if L.A. had a football team than that city would have been number one on my list because they would suck too!!!!!!  Atlanta does have a football team and they have NEVER really been good.  I know that they lost in the Superbowl to Denver but come on they sucked!!!!!!!!! The only thing that has ever happened worth a crap in Atlanta was the bombing during the Olympics.

Rob's Top 5 -

Arnie's Top 5 -

5. Tampa Bay: people and atheletes go there to die.

4. Detroit; never mind the teams the people and the city are just God awful

3. New Orleans (The city itself is so miserable nothing else matters. It only ranks #3 because it will be swallowed into the ocean eventually)  

2. San Francisco/Oakland Bay Area. (I grew up there; the most fair weather fans and worst facilities on Earth live there)

1. Philadelphia (The fans are horrendous, the teams  rarely live up to their potential and the city is dreary and angry)

5. Baltimore/D.C.

4. New Orleans

3.
Detroit

2. Los Angeles

1. Atlanta
