	Teams are listed by their stadium locations. Please let me know if I missed any!

	This was basically just name all the sports teams, so I don't really like the overall idea. Also, you shouldn't have to type "DC United". They're the United from DC, much the way you don't type "Washington Wizards", just "Wizards". My point is "United" should be acceptable.

	please correct los angeles angels of anaheim and anaheim ducks

	Made the changes. I didn't want this to be a "name all of the sports teams" quiz. But when I ask for users to answer them in order, they have to be named specifically in the order I listed them in the database, which is not what I wanted either. Anyone know how to make it specific by category?

	BigSwitz98:	Feb 7th, 2010 at 01:40 GMT	2 points
	That whole Los Angeles Ducks thing...wrong. Anaheim, not LA.

	ch4nz0rd:	Feb 7th, 2010 at 01:53 GMT	3 points
	Fixed it. Just a simple brainfart. I feel like an idiot; I'm from LA.

	Only major big 4 teams I forgot where the Nets and Grizz, not a big loss there. Even nailed a few MLS teams.

	MLS? ugh

	adamchappelle:	Feb 13th, 2010 at 21:34 GMT	-1 points
	Ugh. If you're going to put MLS on, might as well include the WNBA. They're about as popular nationally.

	Adding the MLS made this quiz go from a breeze to a good challenge. Nice job.

	I like having the MLS teams on here. Makes it a bit more challenging.

	May as well throw in professional lacrosse while we're at it. This is America, dammit, we call football soccer and we don't like it!

	I personally thank you for recognizing the MLS as a professional sports league. I would like to add that the MLS has a ton of talent that has proven it can play with the big boys in Europe (Donovan, Dempsey, Guzan, Howard, etc.) The MLS are now trying to recruit such talent as Raul, Thierry Henry, etc. For you non-soccer fans, those are pretty special players. The MLS should not be taken lightly.

	You could try alphabetical order and then have people guess in order.

	Etheridge2:	Feb 14th, 2010 at 13:45 GMT	11 points
	I like the inclusion of the MLS and those who think it is two easy shpuld just limit themselves to answering by state in order (start with California and move on) You could force the order but list them all alphabetically by team name? Just a thought. That way you have to start with Angels and work your way to Warriors. (Although 49ers could be under F or listed first or last, you would have to indicate what you do foe them and the 76ers.)

	NASCAR isn't a sport, so it shouldn't be on here. Plus, it's Pro Sports Teams. Despite the fact that the drivers are loosely aligned, even if you consider it a sport, it's certainly not a team sport.

	Yeah, how dare the MLS be included! If it wasn't for the inclusion of the Philadelphia Union, I would have gotten a perfect score, and because of it I can no longer trumpet my perfect Sporcle score to the ladies. I might even learn something as a result of it...

	i like having mls but couldnt you make it so the teams have to be entered by state because this is name all the teams that dont play in canada.

	cardsfan86:	Feb 14th, 2010 at 20:13 GMT	2 points
	you should find a way to categorize where you are given a state and then you name the teams in that state only. for exmaple, it could say missouri, then you could type cardinals, rams, blues, chiefs. royals, then it moves to a new state. otherwise it is basically just listing every pro sports team and the state portion of it is completely irrevlevant. but still a fun quiz!

	90th percentile, but I did not list the Lakers

	ArtVandaley:	Feb 15th, 2010 at 04:12 GMT	2 points
	The KC Wizards moved to KC KS last year. Thank you very much for including MLS. All of the comments comparing MLS to WNBA in popularity are simply ignorant.

	alleycat9:	Feb 15th, 2010 at 05:06 GMT	3 points
	adding the mls completely screwed up this quiz for me.

	What the ** with the MLS teams? Why not make us list minor-league baseball, the WNBA and WUSA franchises. Good idea ruined by some soccer **.

	TheBurgerKing:	Feb 15th, 2010 at 21:12 GMT	5 points
	i'll admit that i don't know much about the MLS, but i've never heard of the philadelphia union.

	soccerswiers:	Feb 15th, 2010 at 21:51 GMT	3 points
	You need to give credit for "New York Red Bull"

	johnlk:	Feb 15th, 2010 at 22:13 GMT	-4 points
	@The BurgerKing - the Philadelphia Union are a new expansion team. Beyond that, if MLS is going to be included (which is fine), I tend to think that you should also include the CFL and include all Canadian provinces with CFL, MLB, NBA, or NHL teams.
