The penultimate batch brings us five of the most storied NBA, NHL, and NFL franchises in (North) American Sports. All teams in the Top 10 have been active for the whole era in question (1974 - 2012) with the exception of #10.
| Rank | Total | Team | City | League | Titles | Finals | Semis | Playoffs | Years |
| 10 | $419.10 | Spurs | SAN | NBA | 4 | 4 | 10 | 31 | 35 | |
| 9 | $442.83 | Patriots | BOS | NFL | 3 | 7 | 8 | 18 | 39 | |
| 8 | $445.42 | Red Wings | DET | NHL | 4 | 6 | 10 | 26 | 37 | |
| 7 | $478.94 | Cowboys | DAL | NFL | 4 | 6 | 11 | 23 | 39 | |
| 6 | $500.56 | 49ers | SF | NFL | 5 | 5 | 11 | 19 | 39 |
Discussion: Who would have guessed that the San Antonio Spurs had the 2nd highest playoff hit rate at 88.6% (#1 is in the Top 5)? Patriots, Red Wings, Cowboys, and 49ers are certainly franchise royalty, the Patriots with only 3 titles, but 7 Super Bowls. Spurs have never lost a Championship series. The Cowboys and 49ers so tied together throughout the 80s and 90s find themselves in order here as well. Both Cowboys and Spurs went from worst year to best year within 3 seasons (in the Spurs case, 2 seasons).
Each team is summarized below. A reminder, the years below are the year of the playoffs, so for NFL, 2010 is associated with the 2009 regular season. For best season, playoff performance is given precedence over regular season record.
