Most Successful Pro Sports Franchises
An interesting list has popped up that ranks the 122 professional teams from best to worst performance in the 2008 calendar year. (h/t Dan Shanoff) There are some other factors involved in the ranking like profit, attendance, etc..., but with the Celtics at number 1 and the Detroit Lions at number 122, looks like they got some things right.
For those of you too lazy to open the list, a quick synopsis;
1. Boston Celtics (NBA)
2. New York Giants (NFL)
3. Los Angeles Lakers (NBA)
4. Montreal Canadiens (NHL)
5. Boston Red Sox (MLB)
51. Toronto Raptors (NBA)
53. Vancouver Canucks (NHL)
64. Toronto Maple Leafs (NHL)
83. Toronto Blue Jays (MLB)
118. Pittsburgh Pirates (MLB)
119. Atlanta Thrashers (NHL)
120. Memphis Grizzlies (NBA)
121. New York Islanders (NHL)
122. Detroit Lions (NFL)
