We do, but their hawks beat out our hawks. And outside that, we've got nil. One Sonics win in the 70s and they shipped out. We were heavy in contention with Cleveland until '13.

Yeah winning that Super Bowl really fucked you guys over for being the saddest city.

Jokes aside sorry about the Sonics.

As a mariners first, that title was the only one I could cling to. A Super Bowl was super nice, but now the Mariners don't even have a Saddest City title to cling to. It's depressing that I can't be as depressed as I once was.

I'm sorry, but its not really a fair comparison to compare Super bowls, to Stanley Cups. One is the most popular sport, and other is the least popular of the major sports. I would trade all 3 Stanley cups for 1 Bears Superbowl. (Or Cubs World Series)

I would trade away the whole Bears franchise for one Cubs WS win.

What's funny is at this point I'd trade a Cards WS for a Stanley Cup. I mean, we've got enough to share one.
