The oldest franchise to never have won a Super Bowl? It's the Detroit Lions. The Lions have been in the NFL since 1930 (then playing as the Porstmouth Spartans). After the 1933 season, the team was purchased and moved to Detroit. The team played their first game as the Detroit Lions in 1934. The Lions are one of the six NFL Franchises who have never been to the Super Bowl. The Philadelphia Eagles could also be considered (but they really aren't) as the oldest franchise in the league never to have won the Super Bowl. The Eagles were founded in 1933 by Bert Bell, Lud Wray and co. The purchased the territorial rights of the then defunct Frankfort Yellow Jackets (The Yellow Jackets folded in 1931), who actually started in the NFL in 1924. However, since the league had technically revoked the franchise at the end of 1931, there is no "direct" linkage from the Yellow Jackets to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Roger Maris (61/1961) holds the Yankees single season record. The others who round out the Yankees Top Ten include:

Babe Ruth (60/1927)

Babe Ruth (59/1921)

Mickey Mantle (54/1961), Babe Ruth (54 twice/1920, 1928)

Alex Rodriguez hit his 53rd home run today (9/25/2007), and with 5 games left in the season, could finish with more.

Mickey Mantle (52/1956)

Lou Gehrig (49 twice/1934, 1936), Babe Ruth (49/1930)

---------------------------

The only major leaguers to surpass Maris came in a spate between 1998-2001 when questions about steroids use created questions:

Barry Bonds (73/2001)

Mark McGwire (70/1998)

Sammy Sosa (66/1998)

Mark McGwire (65/1999)

Sammy Sosa (64/2001)

Sammy Sosa (63/1999)

the worriers in 88 there record was 4 - 82

I think you got that one wrong there are only 82 games in a nba season. So before you give an answer make sure you the correct one. For one in 1987-88 the warriors record was 20 - 62 and in 1988-89 the warriors record was 43 - 39. So to answer the question what are the all time franchise win loss record is 9 - 73 which was done by the 1972-73 Philadelphia 76ers. Check your facts before you answer and learn how many games are in a NBA season as well ONLY 82 NOT 86.

If one doesn't count the 1994 season (which didn't have playoffs or a World Series), the longest streak in MLB history is 14 seasons by the Atlanta Braves (1991-1993, 1995-2005). If one does count the 1994 season, the longest streak is 13 seasons by the New York Yankees (1995-2007).

Universal Adult Franchise is the best policy of voting and choosing our leaders, in a democratic country as it guarantees citizens of the country to vote irrespective of their caste , creed , gender, background etc. It means that everyone is entitled to vote despite of some conditions laid down by that country which is considered to be humane and justified.

Many franchises can be owned as a sole proprietorship, a corporation, a limited liability company, or many other business structures. However, franchises do differ from companies in many different aspects.

A franchisee has to obey certain standards as set by the larger company or franchisor. This means that franchisees have to follow certain regulations and stay within certain parameters to be able to operate their businesses.

A company, on the other hand, is any entity that engages in business. If you have your own business, you set the rules, the standards, and the expectations. Often, companies require much more work than franchises, because you have to do all the work, as opposed to a franchise where corporate does the heavy lifting for you.

Although in essence franchises operate under a franchisor set rules and regulations, they can also be considered an independent business. While a franchise is tied to the company's operations, the ultimate responsibility for its success lies in the franchisee.

Many franchises have a system that avoids any type of potential conflict between the franchisor and the franchisees. This allows the franchise buyers to have some level of independence. However, each franchise is structured differently, and they do vary from industry to industry.

Franchise and sole proprietorship have several differences. However, they do coincide in certain aspects including finances and regulations.

As a sole proprietor, you must follow local ordinances that cover your business. And, as a franchisor, you still do, but in this case, you may have the assistance of a corporate member to guide you through the process.

As a sole proprietor, you have extensive management responsibilities. As a franchise, you may not have a full managerial say, but you still share similar management duties.

In the end, both a sole proprietor and a franchisee are both business owners that follow the same main purpose: stay in business, be profitable, and expand.
