TCU               football               aside,               all               of               the               college               sports               teams               are               afterthoughts               and               have               been               that               way               for               years.
               Highlight:               Dallas               Cowboys.

Nothing               else               needs               to               be               said,               other               than               that               by               the               time               the               Cowboys               need               to               build               a               new               stadium               it               will               have               been               at               least               70               years               since               they               actually               played               in               the               City               of               Dallas.
               Most               Stunning               Moment:               Game               3               of               the               2006               NBA               Finals.

History               changes               if               the               Mavs               hang               on               against               the               Heat,               particularly               in               the               fourth               quarter               of               the               game.

Up               2-0               before               the               game,               the               Mavs               went               on               to               lose               four               straight.
               Most               Disappointing               Moment:               Having               finished               with               a               league               best               67-15               record               in               2007,               the               Mavericks               were               upset               by               the               troublesome,               upstart               Golden               State               Warriors               4-2               in               the               first               round,               making               them               just               the               third               8               seed               to               defeat               a               1               seed               in               the               NBA               playoffs               and               first               (and               still               only)               to               do               it               in               a               seven               game               series.
               Fact(s)               that               tell               it               all:

Atlanta
               Background:               Atlanta               hasn't               been               known               for               many               championships               in               it's               sports               history,               which               dates               back               (aside               from               Georgia               Tech)               to               the               1960's.

Rarely               are               Atlanta               teams               ever               around               past               the               first               two               or               three               rounds               of               the               playoffs               in               respective               sports.
               Highlight:               Given               that               most               modern               Atlantans               cannot               remember               the               1917,               '28,               and               '52               national               titles               in               college               football               that               Tech               won,               this               answer               comes               down               Tech's               shared               national               title               in               1990               and               the               Braves               only               World               Series               title               in               Atlanta.

Although               the               only               major               university               in               Atlanta               (no,               Georgia               State               doesn't               count               as               major),               the               University               of               Georgia               is               the               most               beloved               team               in               the               state               and               even               the               Atlanta               metro               area,               so               the               Braves               world               series               title               was               indeed               the               highlight               of               Atlanta's               sports               history.
               Most               Stunning               Moment:               Atlanta               teams               generally               are               eliminated               in               easy               fashion               but               Gene               Larkin's               hit               in               the               bottom               of               the               tenth               of               Game               7               of               the               1991               World               Series               had               to               hurt.

The               Braves               had               been               a               feel               good               story               and               they               would               go               on               to               win               the               prize               four               years               later               but               it               was               one               of               the               toughest               endings               in               the               city's               history.
               Most               Disappointing               Moment:               The               fact               that               Braves               won               14               straight               division               titles               only               to               grab               one               championship               was               disappointing               enough               but               the               Hawks               1988               conference               semifinal               defeat               to               Boston               when               they               held               a               3-2               advantage               with               Game               6               in               Atlanta               was               hugely               disappointing               because               of               how               great               Dominique               Wilkins               played               and               in               light               if               the               following...

Needless               to               say,               Atlantans               are               waiting               for               their               teams               to               actually               play               consistently               at               a               high               level.

Phoenix               teams               vary               in               how               they               disappoint,               from               being               highly               successful               in               every               way               except               getting               over               the               hump               (Suns),               to               being               in               an               eternal               pattern               of               being               below               average               but               not               pathetic               (Cardinals),               to               being               a               perennial               underachiever               wasting               loads               of               potential               (Arizona               State).

               Most               Stunning               Moment:               John               Paxson's               three               pointer               which               gave               the               Chicago               Bulls               a               99-98               lead               late               in               Game               6               of               the               1993               NBA               Finals.

Otherwise,               they               don't               make               any               noise               at               all.
               Most               Stunning               Moment:               Very               hard               to               say               because               there               are               so               many               choices.
