Procrastination
The teams left in the hunt in baseball last won the World Series in 1989, 1986, 1984, and 1982.
I wonder when the last time each of the last four teams left in any of the big sports hadn't won in over 15 years was.
As the NBA has only had 8 unique Champions in the past 25 years (Heat, Pistons, Spurs, Lakers, Bulls, Rockets, Celtics, and 76ers), I'm guessing it's been a long time for them. Likewise, the NFL has had only 13 champions over that span. The NHL? 12.
Baseball has had 17 different champions over that same time span.
By the way, I realized just earlier that my Competitive Strategy class has 137 pages of reading this week.

answers: 2004 NHL playoffs. Lightning and Sharks had never won. Flyers hadn't won in a long time. Flames won 15 years earlier in 1989.
or (if you want more than 15 years, 2002 NFL. Bucs, Iggles, and Titans never won. Raiders had won 20 years earlier.
honorable mention to 1996 NFL playoffs: Packers, Panthers, Patriots, and Jags.
God Bless the internet.
1999 NBA. Spurs (never), Knicks, Pacers, and Trailblazers in the 1970s.
