Calculate your suffering

In case you missed it, both Sports Illustrated and the Inky had stories about Philly passing its 100th season since the city's last championship with the Flyers loss yesterday. The SI list hits the top 10 pretty well too, absolutely nailing the worst moment of the drought (yeah, that game).

But with all due respect to those fine publications, the NHL didn't have a season in 2004. So that puts the drought at 99 seasons, including one strike-shortened baseball season where no one won a championship.

Still, it was nice to see someone put this chart up so I could appreciate Boston's pain.
