It's Charlotte and Detroit. Hornets and Pistons are both ass. The Lions success last year doesn't undo decades of poor to mediocre play. Panthers I don't need to explain. Both the Tigers and the Red Wings haven't had any real success over the last decade. Detroit has 3 sucky teams and one good one that was sucky forever. Charlotte just has two sucky ones, but doesn't have a good one to rest their laurels on, so it's probably a wash.

He said right now and the Lions are an overwhelmingly better franchise at the moment, so it would be CLT that is worse if you are talking recently.

If you are talking historically, it's even more overwhelmingly CLT because the Pistons have multiple titles and were a power team spanning many years, despite their current dumpster fire status.

Plus, historically the Hornets/Bobcats/Bobnets have collectively had some of the worst owners in the last 40 years of NBA basketball.

Definitely in the running. I’d probably go Oakland. Lost football, seriously crappy baseball team. They have Golden State Warriors I guess.

The Warriors play in San Francisco now.

There ya go, Oakland probably beats Charlotte out easily.

If only Charlotte had a perennial .400 MLB franchise that could furnish the large market teams with proven MLB players.

A's are going to move to Vegas. Charlotte is definitely one of the worst sports towns. Others in that list: Toronto, Oakland, DC, San Diego, Nashville, San Jose, Orlando, Sacramento, Portland, Jacksonville, Montreal, and Salt Lake City.

IMO, the single team cities shouldn't really count. They are barely pro sports cities.

Charlotte's technically braves country, at least we can count on them to be competitive urine and you are out.

Hold on, wait, i'm getting an update...

Form Michael Jordan to David tepper, why God??.....WHY????

 

Jordan MUST have the lowest win % for owner over 5 or 10 years, need to see a list.

 

Tepper already has the lowest win % in ALL sports since he took over.

yes. Canes are barely holding up NC pro sports as a whole and even then they choke in the playoffs every year. at least they MAKE the playoffs I guess

No......but its a "meh" sports town for sure.

Pretty unbelievable Panthers have been to 2 SB's with only 7 winning season in 29 years. Hornets have been just putrid... no one is envious of us... only Detroit, Jacksonville, Cleveland and Huston maybe on the NFL side.
