	A Clipper is a ship? I never knew that. Interesting...

	That was fun!

	Thanks, I didn't even think of that. It's accepted now.

	Typhoon - the sun IS a star. I figured the Suns first, but Stars are just as valid. Nice quiz.

	Cool quiz! I'd like to see another version with more teams if possible..

	I agree with typhoon, you're really going out of your way and purposely trying to find alternate answers if you say Stars for #10. In that case, accept Predators for 9, 11, and 12, or Wild for all the animals, or Pirates, Bucs, and Raiders for 3. See how ridiculous we can get?

	being from connecticut i automatically thought of the Hartford Whalers when i saw the ship. so sad, come back to use whalers

	DarkPassenger:	Nov 23rd, 2010 at 14:30 GMT	4 points
	Yes bmo1616, I agree. While we're going out of our way to include additional answers, can you also accomodate the color blind? Please accept Red Sox for #4, and accept Cardinals and Blue Jays for #6. I also think there is a potential for an Avalanche on #14. Don't Cowboys wear Spurs for #16? Just for fun, please also accept Yankees for #5. Thanks to bmo1616 for starting this chain of sarcasm. I had fun.

	BillMcNeal:	Nov 23rd, 2010 at 15:37 GMT	7 points
	People who are color blind can tell the difference between birds.

	AdmiralMaxtreme:	Nov 23rd, 2010 at 15:59 GMT	2 points
	I agree that #10 is obviously a sun, but I think of the many alternate suggestions listed above, it is by far the most acceptable, because it is the only one that, if someone first thought of the more unreasonable answer, it would be at least understandable. Although it IS pretty obvious...

	oogie20:	Nov 23rd, 2010 at 16:30 GMT	2 points
	This was a bit too easy - the Clippers was (were?) a nice speedbump. It'd be great to see other semi-difficult ones as well - Bills, Patriots, Sabres, Senators, Texans, Canucks, Raptors, Rangers, Mariners, Reds, Astros, Padres, Chargers, etc.

	AdmiralMaxtreme:	Nov 23rd, 2010 at 17:00 GMT	3 points
	I tried to pick 16 teams that couldn't (within reason) be mistaken for something else, although if you're following the comments, I may have failed. For example, any picture that works for the Cowboys would also work for the Texans. There are probably enough for me to make a sequel, so I may use some of your suggestions; I just wanted to say why I left certain teams out.

	lhm:	Nov 23rd, 2010 at 17:32 GMT	1 point
	I agree that most were easy, but for the life of me I couldn't get the Clippers. I sat and was sure I was stumped, until with about 20 seconds left I was sure I had it. But, alas, Seattle Mariners just didn't make the cut.

	midlifecrisis:	Nov 23rd, 2010 at 17:39 GMT	2 points
	I can't believe I missed the Clippers and Diamondbacks. It took me a while to get Bucks as well. Good quiz.

	ClutchMcB:	Nov 23rd, 2010 at 19:08 GMT	5 points
	I definitely thought #3 were the Mariners.

	@AdmiralMaxtreme, this quiz is excellent, it was just the person who HAD to be annoying and say "accept Stars for the Sun!" when clearly it's the Sun, which of course opened the flood gates.

	kop:	Nov 23rd, 2010 at 21:00 GMT	1 point
	3 = hard

	@ezman: Perhaps. My first guess was the Flyers. @bmo et al: The reason that "Stars" is a reasonable guess and not the others is that the pluralized words "Stars" and "Suns" are synonyms and interchangeable in almost any context, whereas "Lions" and "Predators" (and the other examples you mentioned) are not.

	Great quiz! I loved it. Love to see a sequel

	#1 I'd definitely want Flyers too please? I also got stuck thinking Avs for #14... the big full area of white snow on the left doesn't help. Maybe a less snowy pic would clean that up??? Very nice quiz, well done :-)

	weeps:	Nov 26th, 2010 at 23:11 GMT	-1 points
	Too easy. Could have been more creative by including the Packers, Canadiens, or Steelers.

	picard:	Nov 27th, 2010 at 18:00 GMT	-1 points
	Im not seeing any pictures.

	cmo811:	Nov 28th, 2010 at 22:09 GMT	3 points
	@ shuffler Plenty of people know what a clipper is. In fact 35% of the people who played this quiz do. And yes there's a difference between a jet and an airplane- a jet has jet engines (as opposed to a prop or a glider for example).

	Flyer would work if it was a picture of a pilot. I know the guy who said Suns was trying to be funny, I even typed in myself to see what would happen. All the others mentioned are a bit of a stretch. Actually, my first thought for Suns/Stars was the Miami Heat. Most of these were easy, spent most of the time thinking of reasonable alternates.

	AdmiralMaxtreme:	Nov 29th, 2010 at 22:59 GMT	2 points
	Avalanche will absolutely not be accepted. Nothing about that picture suggests that an avalanche is happening. Flyers will also not be accepted, for the reason cocky pointed out.

	big_papi:	Dec 14th, 2010 at 11:44 GMT	-3 points
	how are you suppose to know that 14 are the Rocky Mountains? You can easily say that there is nothing in the photo to suggest that it is specifically the Rockies

	AdmiralMaxtreme:	Dec 18th, 2010 at 07:14 GMT	3 points
	Did you think it was the Andes? Perhaps it was the Ural mountains? I say this because it is clearly a mountain range of some sort. What other mascot could it possibly be?

	Hellpop:	Dec 19th, 2010 at 03:02 GMT	3 points
	Great quiz. Just because someone wasn't able to come up with the right answer doesn't mean you should alter this to accept their wrong answer.

	Saints09:	Mar 17th, 2011 at 00:12 GMT	-3 points
	Pretty good.
