    The Hawks at least made the playoffs, and the Knicks are still a laughing-stock. I can't say I agree with that list.

    It looks like they're evaluating based on the last 10-15 years. That's why Knicks didn't make it.

    The Twins? A team that has made the playoffs something like 4 of the last 6 years? They are leading their division this year as well! Oh well, I am a little biased.

    No, the Hawks traded for Abdur-Rahim, and they gave up the rights to Gasol.

    It's a FOX Sports article written for an American audience.

    With that Wirtz dude dead, the Maple Leafs should be the first hockey team on there.

    Two titles aside, the Florida Marlins should clearly be #1.

    also, if you are rating over the past three years or so, the Rays should NOT be on this list. Yes, they used to be a misrun laughingstock, but no more. They are totally loaded with young talent--including minor-league prospects--and it is just a matter of time before they will put it together.

    I might replace them with the Orioles, in fact, who have been just pitiful since Angelos took over, and totally atrocious in the five or six years since Ripken retired.

    I agree Angelo. And ghoti can you tell me why there is a Fox Sports [en espanol] & [portugues] if its only for americans? I suggest you check the website and the channels before saying something else that sounds ignorant and stupid.

    Too bad you couldn't save face and follow your own advice. The story is posted on the english version of the site under the MLB header. While Fox Sports offers media for international sports fans, not everything on the site is devoted to an international audience. Jesus...

    Save face? Why? I checked the website and it is in spanish. And also i have the channel and they were talking about that topic " 10 worse teams" on Fox sports noticias es espanol. I admit it , i assumed it was on the website because i saw on the tele, but it wasnt so my BAD. But it wasnt only for american audiences obvioulsy because they talked about it on the spanish version of fox sports news.

    hahaha I love how you're arguing between Spanish and American, as if the two can't be the same.

    You do realize that Spanish is by far the 2nd most spoken language in the United States.

    Just stop, your just digging yourself into a deeper hole than you already are in, and you're not coming out.
