When they lose to teams like New Hampshire, “Mild” doesn’t really do them justice.
The Cleveland Cadavers have already been mentioned, but the Cleveland football team is frequently called the “Brownies”, as in little girls not yet old enough for Girl Scouts, and, of course, the “Clowns.”
There is a tv sportscaster here in Cleveland who refers to the Detroit Tigers as the “Motor City Kittties” which is a lot funnier when the Tigers aren’t in first place.
Back when Indianapolis was still at the bottom of the barrel, “COLTS” stood for “Count On Losing This Sunday”.

We could pervert this thread slightly, from “what do fans call their own team, when they’re bad” to “what do opposing fans call their rivals”.
USC Toejams. or Condoms.
This year especially- the Oakland Masqua-raiders

When losing, the Denver Broncos have been referred to as the “Donkeys.” Baseball has the Colorado “Mockeries.” Then in basketball, you have the Denver “Lugnuts.” I’m not a Denver hater, really. I used to live in Colorado for 10 years, was an early Rockies fan, and celebrated a Stanley Cup and two Super Bowl victories when living there. I really do love their teams.

I’ve heard the Colorado Rockies referred to as the “chokies.” They start pretty strong, then fade badly – about the end of April.

“ruins” is still popular on Cal boards, along with “baby Bears”.

Kansas City Chefs (remember the Snickers commercial where the guy actually painted this on the field by mistake?)
We call them the Oakland Rai_ers…because they have no “D”

This made me laugh. So terrible they don’t even get a nickname.
But I like Chicago Scrubs.

And for all you fellow Seahawk fans…

I’ve always called them the Semenhawks.
I just read an article about the Raiders that described them as the Silver and Bleak. I had never heard that one before, despite having lived in the Bay Area for several years.

I used to hear Nets PG Jason Kidd referred to as “_ason Kidd,” because he had no J.
Chicago Cubs, Consistently Useless By September.
Might be funny if it weren’t so true.
