Fan Misery Index: Are Kings fans still the most miserable fans in professional sports?

Kings fans are still the most miserable in all of professional sports, according to the updated ESPN.com Fan Misery Index.

A new set of rankings were released Tuesday morning. The Kings maintained the top spot, followed by the San Diego Padres, Buffalo Bills, Florida Panthers, Cleveland Browns, New York Jets, Chicago White Sox, Miami Dolphins, Cincinnati Reds and Buffalo Sabres.

The Fan Misery Index ranks all 123 NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL teams. Rankings are based on championships, playoff appearances, playoff wins, heartbreaks and rival comparisons — a formula for disaster for Kings fans.

ESPN.com noted that the Kings, who have not been to the playoffs since 2006, are mired in the NBA’s longest postseason drought.
