Seems the sabres are the number 1 franchise when it comes down to cost and enjoyability in not just the NHL but in all major league sports. > **[Ultimate Standings](http://www.espn.com/chat/sportsnation/story?page=ultimatestandings07No1team)** > > The fans have spoken and the Buffalo Sabres are the top franchise in pro sports. ---

I posted this in the Official Sabres thread but no one noticed. Cool stuff though. I didn’t realize what a huge turn around the team made financially. ---

MINNESOTA VIKINGS Last title: **Never** Seasons: **46** Playoffs: **24** Winning seasons: **28** Finals losses:** 4 (0) **15-1:** The 1998 squad, which lost one regular-season game (by three points) is arguably the best team never to make the Super Bowl. For the safety of Vikings fans, we won’t describe the soul-sucking moment that cost them a Super Bowl trip. But we will mention the four Super Bowl trips in the '70s that all ended in blowout defeats. we deserve to be much higher for that year alone.
