Here's another question:

Name the top 5 longest CURRENT playoff droughts in each of the Big 4 sports.
*In the NFL there are 2 teams tied for the 5th spot so there are actually 6 answers for the NFL

For baseball, it has to be the Nationals / Expos, who last made the playoffs in 1981.

Was about to guess the Padress instead of Astros, but remembered they made it in '06 (barely finishing above .500).

NFL took a lot more time to think about... forgot the Lions made the playoffs two years ago.

And I now understand your scoring system. My bad.

Yeah Padres and Mets would be tied for 6th as both last made the playoffs in 2006.

For some reason I thought the Mets made the playoffs in 2007. Can't believe I forgot about that lol.

[CardiacKemba]

NFL im gonna guess the Lions, and the NBA im gonna guess the Raptors

 

[soxfan1468927]

MLB
Marlins
Rockies
Astros
Nationals/Expos

Correct on the Marlins, Rockies, and Nationals/Expos. However the Astros went to three straight postseasons from 1997-1999. Pretty forgettable though since they never made it out of the NLDS.

 

[soxfan1468927]

NFL im gonna guess the Lions, and the NBA im gonna guess the Raptors

Lions is incorrect. They went to three straight postseasons from 1952-1954 and from 1993-1995. Raptors is also incorrect, they went to 3 straight from 2000-2002.

 

[apachef4]

[apachef4]
