Worst Pro Sports Franchises

Cincinnati Bengals - The laughable Bungles more closely resemble a pack of constipated wildebeest than an actual NFL franchise. Owners of the overall number one pick three times in the last twelve years the Bengals have next to nothing to show for such lofty first rounders. The jury is still out on Carson Palmer but Dan Wilkinson and Ki-Jana Carter are amongst the biggest draft busts of all time. Bengals’ owner Mike Brown, much like the aforementioned Sterling, apparently has an aversion to re-signing his own talent. Not to mention the squandering of one high draft pick after another. Their record since 1990 is 80-166.

They win barely a third of their games. There history in a microcosm was seen as Palmer completed a 66 yard pass to wide out Chris Henry only to have Kimo von Oelhoffen roll up on and blow out the ACL in Palmer’s left knee. And their first playoff appearance since 1990 went up in flames in bit of poetic irony.
