The Chicago Bears for the early part of the 20th century and the Bulls in modern times.

Chicago's longest season drought is probably under 100 seasons in a row.


And the Hawks in the 2010s. *

2 titles in 106 years for 2 teams.

I am not sure that rises to mediocrity


I saw an article about this when I was an ND student

It was in the late 70s and I think it was a Chicago Tribune item.

They added up the W-L totals of all the Chicago professional teams (I can’t remember if they include teams like the Cardinals, Zephyrs and Stags). Out of north of 25000 contests at that time, the combined totals were somewhen around 20-30 games over .500.

That’s mediocrity.
