Has anybody in here bothered to look up any stats? This article from a couple years ago compared the home win % to away win %, which shows the teams that have the best advantage when playing at home. The top 5 (from 2002 to 2011) are:

Baltimore (35% higher at home)
Arizona (29% higher at home)
Seattle (26% higher at home)
San Francisco (24% higher at home)
Minnesota (24% higher at home)

But to get a clearer picture, we decided to compare each teams home win % to their, win % as a visitor and their win % overall. This gives us a better sense of home field advantage as we can take into consideration the win rate of the team overall.

and is still a pretty flawed way of looking at it.

It gives a huge advantage to bad teams
