Exclamation Biggest choke city in sports

What would it be? I could see people saying Boston in the past, but if you said that now you'd be an idiot. Then you could say Chicago, but the Bulls won 6 NBA championships in the 1990's. I didn't really put much thought into this, but here are some that I have thought of.

Houston: I am pretty sure they didn't win an NBA championship with Hakeem, and the Astros have never made a World Series

Minnesota: Gophers were NCAA hockey champs twice (2002-2003 I think), Twins won World Series in 1991 and 1987, besides that: Vikings have lost 4 Superbowls and the whole 1998 season.

Seattle: My information is probably wrong and Miz will correct it, but I don't remember the Mariners winning a World Series recently, even after a 116 win season. I'm not sure when the Seahawks or Sonics have won last either.

Milwaukee: They haven't won a World Series since the 1950's and I don't think the Bucks have ever won an NBA championship

Indianapolis: The Pacers have often been a great team to end up not winning a Championship, and the Colts have had some really good teams but never made a Superbowl

Buffalo: The Bills lost a few Superbowls in a row and I seem to remember the Sabres losing the Stanley Cup a few times

Philadelphia: I don't know the stats here, but the Eagles haven't been to a Superbowl since 1981 (when they lost) and we've seen them recently. The Phillies lost the World Series in the early 1990's, I'm not sure what they did before that. I'm not sure what the Dr. J 76ers did, but I am pretty sure the Flyers haven't won it all in a while.

Oakland: The A's might have won something a while ago, but the Raiders have been a big choke since moving to Oakland and I don't think the Warriors were ever good. You could add San Jose in there too, they haven't finished the job lately.

Theres probably like 10 more that I could list, but I don't really know. What city do you think is the one to always have the good team but never follow through?
