Gregg Posted August 25 Posted August 25 I got a 70 using all three of my teams. Bills, Islanders, Yankees. Quote
Fleezoid Posted August 25 Posted August 25 89. Now I'm even more miserable. I really thought I'd get in the 90s, which is where I feel like I should be. 2 Quote

Everybody wants to be an A student, but sometimes life has other plans for us. I don’t really have any teams other than the Bills. The Braves left Buffalo and my interest in the NBA has since dwindled to zero. College basketball used to be my Team #2, but NIL and the portal made that unappealing. Baseball is…..sorry but baseball is just boring. I lost track of hockey when I left WNY for college in the 70’s. I rise and fall with the Bills, but I try hard to keep the highs and lows from being too extreme. . Edited August 25 by Augie Quote
Your Brown Eye Posted August 25 Posted August 25 90 .... Bills, Sabres, Knicks, Guardians (Indians) Quote
Cugalabanza Posted August 26 Posted August 26 I got a 78, but I’d argue I’m more miserable than that. I’m a long time loyal fan of the USMNT. A lot of disappointment there! Quote
BillsPride12 Posted August 26 Posted August 26 I got a 90 using Bills Sabres, Bulls....was hoping all those Bulls championships in the 90s would help flatten the curve for my score 😂 Quote

I tried all combinations, even Mike's original... Can't get higher than a 90... Everything I checked was over 15 years. The Bills in recent years is HELPING for a LOWER score! @Mike in Horseheads how did you get a 91... All over 15 years?? Edited August 26 by ExiledInIllinois Quote

ComradeKayAdams Posted August 26 Posted August 26 My family’s official score (Dad and two brothers) is a 78: Bills, Sabres, Yankees, Knicks, NYC FC. My personal score rises to a 93 because I really only follow the Buffalo contact sports: Bills, Sabres. Actually…I am also a major fan of the NLL’s Buffalo Bandits. Since they are in the midst of an epic lacrosse dynasty, I suppose my score should be lowered. Fun site, though! I love quantifying my misery!! Quote

Its because they have won championships in the last 15 years I would guess 1 Quote
May Day 10 Posted August 26 Posted August 26 The 15 years thing skews this exercise. Im old now I guess, but 15 years isnt that long ago. Basically encapsulates the entire Sabres drought and all history prior to that is wiped out. It should ask how old you are and takes every season from your age of, maybe 8-on. Near-misses should also be a pretty large hit. 13-Seconds, Music City Miracle, and Wide Right are borderline traumatic. The Sabres have some tough losses, as do the Indians (my third team). A championship within the last decade should pretty much reset the score for that team to zero. I have the Sabres, Bills, and Indians/Guardians and scored an 88. I would say that is a pretty tough combination of teams... but the Bills' recent "success" taking up almost half of the 15 year window erases the drought, Superbowl heartbreak, and all that. 1 Quote
thenorthremembers Posted August 26 Posted August 26 88- Bills, Sabres, Blue Jays, Lakers Need to add college sports. 1 Quote
Ned Flanders Posted August 26 Posted August 26 90...Bills, Sabres, Orioles. No real NBA favorite (the Buffalo Braves were not an option). Steelers were among the most woeful...really? With six Lombardis everything should be gravy. Quote
