I couldn't think of any team more deserving to be last.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

New York fans are unsatisfied is what it appears, although the variables they are using for measurement are partially what's behind the results.
BNG (Bang for the Buck): Wins over the past three years per revenues directly from fans

FRL (Fan Relations): Ease of access to players, coaches & management

OWN (Ownership): Honesty; loyalty to players and city

AFF (Affordability): Price of tickets, parking and concessions

STD (Stadium Experience): Friendliness of environment; quality of game-day promotions

PLA (Players): Effort on the field; likability off it

CCH (Coach/Manager): Strong on-field leadership

TTR (Title Track): Titles already won or expected -- soon

Out of 122 big 4 pro-franchises The Yankees who have made the playoffs and won 3 titles over the last decade are ranked...

65th in fan satisfaction?

The Mets?

93rd

Your Super Bowl Champion Giants?

48th?

Jets?

110th

Islanders

75th

Rangers

79th

Nets

100th

And your local NY/NJ team with the most satisfied fans?

The Devils ranked...

40th

Forum Po Po and #33 for a reason...

Sucks! The first New York team is the Giants and they come in at 48.

I find it baffling how the Miami Heat came in at 87, while the Knicks came in at 122 and the Heat are almost shoe-ins for the top draft pick.

I think the thing that did the Knicks in was the fact that we are the biggest market and nothing to show for it.
I'll never trust this' team again.

This poll is weak though. Only 80,000 people participated. And apparently the majority of them hate New York.

There should've been at least' one-million votes!

Apparently you don't realize just how much the nation hates New York. It's glaringly obvious!
