Major League Sports' Longest Active Title Droughts, As of 2021 NBA Finals

Congratulations to the Milwaukee Bucks, who, last night, won their 1st NBA Championship in 50 years.

So what are the longest title droughts now? Note: I am only including those teams that have gone at least 25 years. I am counting from either their last title, or, if they have never won one, from the first game in franchise history. 

New York Tri-State Area teams are in bold. On a connected subject: I have the Nets' entire history listed together, since they've always been in the same metropolitan area. Since the Chargers moved to San Diego and then back to Los Angeles, I've included their entire history, too. I did that for the Rams as well. I did not do it for the Raiders, because Las Vegas is pretty far from either Oakland or Los Angeles.
