100 seasons

Philly fans are the most passionate and tortured fans in this country. More than any other city, Philly sports talk is self-absorbed - shunning national sports topics to vent frustrations on the local teams. Listen to 610WIP or now ESPN950 sports talk radio and you'll hear a repetitive discourse - callers and hosts verbalizing their pain of going 25 years without a championship. The Flyers recent elimination in the Stanley Cup Eastern Conference finals closed out the 100th combined season of pro sports without a title. SI has a great article chronicling the drought.
