	Definitely would have been easier if there was some order to the teams listed, not necessarily alphabetically but maybe by sport. I kept guessing ones that I already had with a different set of 3 letters.

	I really like all these "By any 3 Letters" quizzes, and I especially appreciate the work that goes into them.

	type in "ers" and be amazed at how many pop up.

	WOW. Great quiz, way harder than i thought it would be. I like that they are randomly listed. If they were grouped, or in order, that is another quiz that exists already. Kudos.

	Random listing is great! Thought I'd remembered all those silly singular team names, but got foiled by Orlando's team.

	Its pretty easy if you just think of ending. Got 112 doing this.

	Three categories you miss most: weird/singluar words, sports you don't follow, and teams you dislike. Logical, but still doesn't explain how I missed one of the two baseball teams I root for (face palm).

	Fun quiz. Thought it would be a breeze, but it certainly was not! Nice job.

	Is there a Big 4 during the NHL lockout? Aren't we stuck with the Big 3 right now?

	Good quiz, more difficult than you'd think.

	GiantsJoe2110:	Dec 13th, 2012 at 14:36 GMT		1 point
	The trick to get a lot is put in the endings. Since most team names end with "s," you're really just looking for two letters in a row (plus the s).

	ANGRY, ANGRY, ANGRY. Please accept any three letter combination from seventy-sixers and forty-niners. e.g. "sev" or "for". I got everything but those two.

	At first wondered how so many got Mariners right; then noticed what it had in common with raiders.. and Rangers and Clippers.. and of course a simpler solution to your 76ers and 49ers.

	If just start typing any big 4 sports team the answer will appear before you finish typing it. Shouldn't have to run out of time.

	Anyone figure out the fewest number of entries it takes to complete this?

	Zak6009:	Feb 4th, 2013 at 20:53 GMT		1 point
	@catalog, working on it...

	Zak6009:	Feb 4th, 2013 at 22:31 GMT		1 point
	Minimum is 48.

	P.S. I don't usually do sports related quizzes so forgive me if this gets asked a million times... but someone explain to me, in quizzes involving spelling and letter-strings, for the 49ers and 76ers is it general Sporcle standard to NOT take into account the words spelled out? Never even in bonuses? Are the digits the in-stone spelling of those teams?
