Salt, meet wound. RT@darrenrovell W/Caps loss, Wash. extends longest drought for city w/4 major sports. Skins won 20 yrs & 3.5 months ago.
Jeff Ermann ‏ @insidemdsports
Artsy lingo like "the pitch" & "nutmeg" & orange slices at halftime = non-major sport. RT@sisu2020: i guess soccer isnt a major sport? Hmph.

This is B.S. Everyone knows the Expos were going to win the World Series in the '94 strike season. That counts as far as I'm concerned.

Soccer will never surpass NFL/MLB/NBA, but keep thinking that NHL is untouchable.

The NHL is untouchable vs. MLS so long as the NHL gets the best players in its sport while the MLS doesn't. So, yeah, the NHL will be a bigger deal for at least all of our lifetimes.

lol, drawing 17k with teams playing like once a week in football stadiums is impressive! Hockey teams are doing that with at least 2 home games nearly every week.

This is exactly the problem... the MLS is growing. It *used* to be in football stadiums, but now there are soccer specific stadiums for almost all the teams.. and they seat like 20k

Again, it is not there yet, but to argue that NHL is in the big boy league and MLS is nowhere close is stupidity.

Even if they did, 1994 was 18 years ago.

True.
Though what would the rank be if you brought it down to 3 or 2 team markets?
Seattle hasn't won one at all....Cleveland hasn't had one since I've been alive....Cincy was 1990....KC was 1985.
...so yeah, the trivia is specious/suspect.
edit: of course SEA won in 1979 with a team they no longer have.

even for a three team city 20 years is 20 years....i was more making fun of dook for the stupid nugget he was trying to drop....you cant be lumped in with four team cities just because you got a fourth team last week
i think the better number to go by is seasons played since your last title and even then dc is right up there...they are 7th on this list

I completely forgot about SD.
I think everyone considers GB MIL's team (even though it's several hours away). They even used to play 3-4 games a year in County Stadium.
