It’s time for Mazz’s Tiers! However, Mazz deferred the tiers to J-Stew this week. J-Stew gives his tiers for worst franchises in the four major sports in the U.S.A. (and Canada).
Reasoning behind the Tiers
Mazz: So we thought we’d just give you a different vantage point this week. It’s that kind of week. And Jimmy, you said yesterday there was a question that Jim and Joe Murray had? Was it something to the effect of who would you have on your no trade list?
Matt McCarthy: It was something that was passed around in the in the email chain. It never went to the show yesterday.
Mazz: Oh, it never made the show?
J-Stew: It never made the show.
Matt McCarthy: It was it was re-inspired for today’s tiers.
Mazz: Okay.
J-Stew: So what we’ve done is it’s the worst franchises in sports and I have three tiers for this.
Mazz: Three tiers, worst franchises in sports and these are as determined by one James Stewart.
J-Stew: So send all your hate mail or your hate tweets to @IAmJamesStewart.
Matt McCarthy: Suck. Suckier. Suckiest.
