Sports team loyalties can be forged during all sorts of situations. You root for the home team, your adopted home team, your college, your high school, your father's favorite team, the franchise that keeps winning, etc. But what do you do if your team is the worst?
That is the question that Buccaneer, Clippers, Houston Texans,Charlotte Bobcat and Memphis Grizzly fans have been facing since the creation of their particular franchise. The Los Angeles Clippers founded in 1971 have only won overall about 36% of their games. The last winning season was in 1981, a crowning achievement for a decade of failure. But the Clippers are not the worst team in sports history. In fact, the Los Angeles Clippers rank number four out of five of the Worst Teams In History, according to Yahoo News reporter Monte Burke.
The worst team in history, is the Memphis Grizzlies. Winning less than a third of games played in their 14 year tenure, the honor may be deserved. Fans blame it on the thrifty management style, or the loss of interest. I just think its a case of the Memphis blues.
Number three on the list is the Houston Texans and their depressing stats are surely that to blame. Their fanbase has suffered, their blog only has about 11 followers.
The Charlotte Bobcats have sunk their claws into spot number two, on the Worst Teams in History list. They are however a fairly new organisation, created about four years ago. A few stars have pledged to help the team out. Michale Jourdan can be seen at the top box quite often. Hopefully through his encouragement the team can raise their dismal stats.
The fifth spot on the list belongs to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Their fans seem to be a little more involved than the Texans,new posts appear quite often and enthusticastically. Maybe next season will be better. We can only hope.
