This was MUCH harder than I thought it would be. I'd love to see it done with just one sport, maybe I'd do better!

It was a lot harder than it seemed it should be, but I liked the multi sports, otherwise I think it would be too easy.

no Toronto love either! I know Maple Leafs and Blue Jays don't work under the rules of the quiz but could have gotten the Raps in there

http://www.sporcle.com/games/Navarro2814/sports_initials I made this same exact quiz 2 years ago. I even followed up with a sequel. Im not one to complain, but come on, this was my idea

@Navarro thats the problem with this site. the editors dont check all the quizzes, and they can steal other people's quiz and get all the credit for it

well your quiz didnt have as many teams as this one does....I guess thats why they didnt take yours. But you're right, you should at least get some recognition. I remember playing that quiz a few years ago and thought it was pretty cool

I don't get how the sports are called the "big 4" when there's much more popular sports. American sports are awful.

ehh whatever. this wasnt the first time its happened. I also made the "U.S. states without vowels" a year ago and another version of the same thing got published a little while ago. pure ignorance if you ask me

@wilfy you mean to tell me soccer and cricket is more exciting than hockey and football? yeah thats plausible...

Even 6 minutes feels too short. It helped a lot when I figured out that you didn't have to type in the city name. Shame I had to figure it out when it was the first instruction, but I guess that's how I roll.

Yes, ver plausible and probably why they're the two most popular sports in the world.

I disagree that it was too short - it was simply a far more difficult quiz than I expected...I mean I know the 120ish teams - how hard should it have been to identify them by initials...obviously more so than many of us thought...

Definitely should have read the instructions before trying "San Antonio Spurs" about five times...

@xolkan or the San Antonio Spurs. I typed spurs in 5 times somehow thinking that I misspelled it.

@wilfy: And what I don't get is why every time a quiz comes out about American sports, you always have to make sure you bitch and moan about it, even when you have absolutely no interest in playing the quiz. Stop trolling. There's a much bigger world outside of the UK. Get over it.

So Navarro what you are saying is if I want to get a quiz published all I have to do is still one of yours? I wish I knew this along time ago. j/k it stinks that you don't get credit for the good idea. Go Tigers!

You are wrong on the "SS" one, what about the San Jose Sharks?

i think that if there isnt more time added, the least you can do is put the clues in alphabetical order because there are enough teams named after states as opposed to cities or whatever that this shouldnt make it so much easier...

@superpole2000: My sentiments exactly. Halfway through I could see that I wasnt going to have time to finish it - much less go back and contemplate ones that didn't come immediately to me. That made it less than fun and satisfying. One more minute, please.
