Teams occasionally made the playoffs too, but never went anywhere. It wasn't all "losing" teams but they were years of losing in the sense that ultimately nothing was won and the teams were just good enough to get some scattered hopes up, but never win.
Even a city like Cleveland had The Indians going to the world series and deep into the post season often. I wouldn't call them winners in the 90s. Detroit has always had the Pistons and Red Wings, but look at the Tigers and Lions.
What I meant to say was, Boston never won big or had anything over most other cities (besides history) in my lifetime, until 2002 onwards.
This decade it's this big powerhouse that everyone else in the country hates for some reason or another. Eventually it will change and we'll see a dry spell again.
