	You do realize that people can just name states at random, right? And that most people (especially most Americans) can easily type in all 50 states in five minutes, right?

	Type in wisconsin and got Illinois for metro area with over 5 million pop.

	This is quiz is incorrect. New York state only has one NFL team (Buffalo Bills). The Giants and Jets both play at New Meadowlands Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

	How can you say that Illinois is on the Missouri River?

	FreakyFlyBry:	Dec 9th, 2010 at 04:31 GMT	12 points
	@hawksdd: In addition to New Jersey, Maryland also has 2 NFL teams (as the Washington Redskins play in Maryland). Also, as river borders are generally counted as land borders, Michigan also borders Canada (the St. Clair and Detroit rivers form part of the Ontario-Michigan border).

	when I typed "Indiana" it showed "Illinois" in the metro population category

	Michigan borders Canada

	hawksdd:	Dec 9th, 2010 at 05:04 GMT	3 points
	@FreakyFlyBry I thought Maryland but wasn't sure.

	Name all the US States. Pointless quiz, considering it was one of the first published quizzes.

	rockinlipe:	Dec 9th, 2010 at 14:55 GMT	3 points
	there are 2 teams in Maryland, 'skins and ravens

	Wow! Can't believe you missed Michigan as an international border state. Michigan shares a 721 mile border with Canada, second longest Canadian border following Alaska, and third longest international border after Alaska and Texas. (Source: http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/RS21729.pdf, page 2.) The Detroit-Windsor border crossing is by far the busiest US-Canada border crossing. Also, Ohio (146 miles) and Pennsylvania (42 miles) share an international border with Canada as well.

	Illinois is not on the Missouri River. Kansas is on the Missouri River.

	mdobb21:	Dec 9th, 2010 at 16:05 GMT	4 points
	illinois is accepted for wisconsin and indiana because the chicago metro area is partly in indiana and wisconsin. 1) this shouldn't count unless there are 5 million people in the chicago area in illinois alone (you made the quiz, you do the research) 2) you shouldn't accept it for wisconsin/indiana, since this quiz requires people to "name the states with a 5 mil metro area" and not to "name the states in which a metro area possibly centered in a different state has a pop over 5 mil"

	JWJr:	Dec 9th, 2010 at 16:43 GMT	-4 points
	If New York's water border with Canada counts, then Michigan's should as well.

	MisterF:	Dec 9th, 2010 at 17:58 GMT	3 points
	Agreed about Michigan, I understand not including Pennsylvania and Ohio because they "border" Canada across a lake but there is a river border between Michigan and Canada.

	Washington D.C. is not in Maryland or Virginia, it is a seperate entity so it should not be included. Virginia and Maryland gave the land for D.C. but Virginia took their part back and it contains cities like Alexandria and Arlington. If you really want to include D.C. it is entirely in land given by Maryland.

	@hawksdd: if you put in new jersey it works as an answer. also added michigan

	cet4494:	Dec 9th, 2010 at 22:23 GMT	-3 points
	Minnesota contains the start of the Mississippi river, therefore is on the Mississippi river

	hawksdd:	Dec 10th, 2010 at 00:21 GMT	3 points
	Yes @aaaandrew, but the answer is still New Jersey, not New York. and you are still missing Maryland. The question isn't which states have 2+ football teams named for an area of the state, its 2+ teams in the state.

	I like the idea of the game, but you should change it so you have to answer them individually or something. A least so we can't just name all the states. Cool idea though.

	BoomRShine:	Dec 10th, 2010 at 13:21 GMT	3 points
	Again, Illinois is not on the Missouri River. Kansas is on the Missouri River. This still is not fixed.

	orinj:	Dec 14th, 2010 at 03:24 GMT	1 point
	@JWJr New York also has a land border with Canada.

	kop:	Dec 15th, 2010 at 21:05 GMT	1 point
	Basically just the list all the states game for 10,000th time.

	Wisconsin is an acceptable answer for Illinois?
