In the four biggest American sports leagues, one-hundred and twenty-four franchises vie for the crown of greatest of all time. Only one can sit atop the throne. Now for the first time ever, Got Your Legends ranks all of the franchises and explains which teams are legendary, or unique, or exciting, or tragic . . . or laughable.
