	Maybe a 5 globe quiz if it hadn't been done 200 times already...but since it has, 1 globe.

	Aren't the Florida Marlins going to switch to the Miami Marlins in a couple years?

	Were they ever actually called the Minneapolis Twins?

	Zephyrs is spelled wrong. And you missed the Baltimore Bullets moving to Washington as well as the Los Angeles Rams moving to St. Louis and the San Francisco Warriors moving to Oakland (becoming the Golden State Warriors). And technically, the Cleveland Browns did not relocate to Baltimore Ravens. They did in the sense that the players and personnel did, but the Baltimore Ravens are regarded as an expansion franchise because all the history and records were not moved to Baltimore, but remained in Cleveland for when the Browns were reincarnated.

	Thanks for the input. I have corrected the mistakes noted. Major source was Wikopedia but team sites were researched as well. I did not include AFL, ABA or WHL team relocations as the quiz was getting too bulky.

	you also have the Stars moving to Dallas when it was the North Stars that moved there ... and now you need to include the Atlanta Thrashers becoming the Winnipeg Jets
