	Actually, Chicago has 5 World Series titles, 2 for the Cubs and 3 for the White Sox

	Jman14:	Oct 3rd, 2009 at 03:31 GMT		6 points
	Also, the Philadelphia Athletics and New York Giants had 5 World Series titles, and the Boston Braves and Brooklyn Dodgers had 1 each

	Good quiz, mostly a name the big cities quiz but still good

	schouw:	Oct 3rd, 2009 at 04:33 GMT		11 points
	Not that it affects the quiz, but you forgot how many Stanley Cups New York has won.

	hscer:	Oct 3rd, 2009 at 04:58 GMT		4 points
	I'd do a little toying with the column widths. Maybe to 25/75 or thereabouts?

	Nice, interesting one

	@FLoaf: The first World Series was in 1903 when the Red Sox (then called the Americans) beat the Pirates...winning something 16 years before it is created sounds difficult.

	Antithesys:	Oct 3rd, 2009 at 06:52 GMT		7 points
	Ok, so the ACTUAL totals for World Series are: Boston 8 (Red Sox 7, Braves 1); Chicago 5 (White Sox 3, Cubs 2); Detroit 4; New York 34 (Yankees 26, Giants 5, Mets 2, Dodgers 1); Philadelphia 7 (Athletics 5, Phillies 2). That's for the modern World Series...pre-1903 Series almost never count. When you throw in the Ducks, then the Los Angeles/Anaheim metro area should be on the list, perhaps as a bonus. This is a fine idea for a quiz but it needs to be worked on.

	@quiztaker: the modern World Series is actually an idea resurrected from the exhibitions, also called "World's Series", played in the 1880s between the champions of the National League and the American Association. Of the clubs that still exist, the Giants, Cubs, Braves, Dodgers, and Cardinals all won at least one. MLB and modern statkeepers never consider these exhibitions, so there's no reason to count them here, but they did happen.

	make life easy on yourself, just skip the numbers. there will always be somebody who wants you to count something else.

	Los Angeles should definitely be a bonus answer considering the Angels now call themselves the "Los Angeles Angels." (which doesn't affect the Ducks, I know). But if you DO count the Ducks, then LA-area is the only place to win all four major sports titles as well as the two major NCAA titles (football and basketball - USC also has college baseball titles if you wanted to throw that in)

	cocky:	Oct 3rd, 2009 at 11:04 GMT		-3 points
	The Angels began life in Los Angeles but soon moved to Aneheim and called the team California. They still play there, but I'm not sure why they adopted the God awful name of Los Angeles Angels of Aneheim.

	Can I make a couple of recommendations? On the Style page, set the 2nd column to 10%, and leave (80%) the rest for the titles. You can just summarize the wins on one line as NFL: 1 NBA: 2 NHL: 3 MLB: 4 Of course, replace with the real numbers and reorder as you like. Provide further details, if need be, below. Use {br} to create line breaks, but replace { and } with less than & greater than signs.

	Ha, 5 of my first 6 guesses were all right. I shouldn't have guessed Pittsburgh as they don't have an NBA team, but I wasn't thinking. Anyway, you really should have done the math right first.

	cocky:	Oct 4th, 2009 at 02:07 GMT		4 points
	Pittsburgh did win an NBA title. Did you not see that biopic, The Fish that saved Pittsburgh?

	You need to list the NHL titles for New York. Are you just counting the Rangers or will you include the 4 titles by the Islanders as well?

	bfg1118:	Oct 4th, 2009 at 16:58 GMT		4 points
	Hey everybody, thanks for the corrections/recommendations and sorry for the errors. I have looked over the stats again, and redid the table. Hopefully this one works better. :-)

	drhaase:	Oct 4th, 2009 at 21:50 GMT		0 points
	i wouldn't include Los Angeles in this. the Ducks play in Anaheim and not Los Angeles. the Kings are LA's hockey team. i would also not include the Islanders Stanley Cups as the Islanders play on LI and not NYC. New York i beleive is more representative of the state.

	Jono_:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 00:49 GMT		0 points
	the kings never won the cup. Ever. They came close once, and they may yet, but they've never won the cup.

	Johnathan: Maybe he's referring to the Ducks?

	mkgrenwel:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 04:35 GMT		-4 points
	Philly has never won a Super Bowl. If we're only counting World Series wins in MLB, then I'm not sure we should count NFL Championships pre-merger.

	binsk:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 05:12 GMT		3 points
	I agree on the LA/Anaheim thing. If you are going to include the Ducks' Cup win, you should have the displayed city name be "LA/Anaheim". Otherwise, don't include it. Also, while I agree with mkgrenwel's point, baseball teams don't seem to include championships prior to 1903 (first WS) in their official lists of titles.

	Pistol:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 11:58 GMT		2 points
	mkgrenwel - no, Philly have never won the superbowl, but they won the NFL championship in 1948, 1949 and 1960

	shawnoc:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 13:17 GMT		0 points
	Too much time. Shorten it to 1 minute. Also get rid of LA. You could also take them out of alphabetic order, because the quiz is a gimme already, there might only be 2-3 cities that have all 4 sports teams that haven't won all 4 titles.

	mkgrenwel:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 15:43 GMT		3 points
	Pistol - If you read my comment carefully, you will see very clearly that I knew that. In defense of LA/Anaheim (from a Bostonian) the two are actually closer together than Boston and Foxboro (home of the Patriots).

	Morby:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 15:55 GMT		1 point
	As a Kings fan I would like to say please don't lump in Anaheim with L.A. they are bitter rivals.

	Jono_:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 16:32 GMT		2 points
	Anaheim isn't LA.

	bsd987:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 23:58 GMT		2 points
	@funguy - Patriots play in Foxboro, not Boston.

	bsd987:	Oct 5th, 2009 at 23:59 GMT		0 points
	Also, the Islanders do not represent NYC nor do they play there. They play out on Long Island. Those four Stanley Cups should not count for New York in any way shape or form. New York has 4 Stanley Cups.

	ok, sports fans, loyalties and rivalries aside - you know the point of the quiz. It's a good quiz as it is.

	geowiz85:	Oct 6th, 2009 at 19:13 GMT		4 points
	st louis is just a couple wins in the 69 and 70 stanley cups from joining this list

	pbrown:	Oct 6th, 2009 at 20:18 GMT		3 points
	Basically all old-4 sport cities in the east

	nearlyextinct:	Oct 6th, 2009 at 22:58 GMT		5 points
	Good quiz. I agree that the Ducks should count for LA if the Pats count for Boston.

	Robert_Seth:	Oct 7th, 2009 at 00:35 GMT		2 points
	The Detroit Lions win games? What?
