	Can't be alternative answers; the leagues would then be incorrect. Speaking of the leagues, am I the only one that found it challenging to scan back and forth across the lines between city and league? They should both be on the left, perhaps, to make it a bit easier to see. Just a thought...

	Yeah, I put in every Philly team but the Flyers before I actually clued into that (duh...however, in my defense, it's 7:00 a.m. Sunday morning). Thought I'd get them all as I'm learning the Big 4 sports here at Sporcle but I've learned them mostly by mascot, not city, so there were some I didn't get in time. Fun quiz, though!

	I know my sports teams. Columbus hockey team tripped me up for 15-20 seconds though. I tried Blues, Blue Jays, etc before remembering their stupid name.

	Brewers near the bottom? Guess "The Beer that Made Milwaukee Famous" isn't doing that so much anymore.

	Pogues:	Oct 31st, 2010 at 18:17 GMT		3 points
	Detroit Lions on the top of the list? Even their terrible record in recent history doesn't stop the Lions!

	^ As a Lions fan, let me savor the moment. I haven't seen them atop ANY standings in my entire life. :)

	So much harder when you had to come up with the team name and actually had to look at the league. The ones that asked for location practically filled in themselves.

	Thanks sporcle! Enjoy everyone!

	volleydan:	Nov 2nd, 2010 at 20:05 GMT		6 points
	Ugh...I know all of these, but I just can't type fast enough!!!

	rennbj4:	Nov 10th, 2010 at 02:28 GMT		1 point
	Did I just do the whole quiz before noticing the leagues were right next to the questions? Yes, yes I did. 31/40 aint bad then!

	RichMaharg:	Dec 6th, 2010 at 15:52 GMT		0 points
	Not enough time to scan back and forth. I got 38 instead of 40 becuase of time and scanning

	Yankeefan416:	Dec 11th, 2010 at 05:54 GMT		1 point
	needs just a little bit more tim e due to the scanning but other than that good quiz!

	mahays:	Jan 20th, 2011 at 18:29 GMT		2 points
	I'd like to request more time on the clock please. =]

	thequestioner:	Feb 21st, 2011 at 07:54 GMT		1 point
	agreed. more time

	Kazu24:	Mar 3rd, 2011 at 23:46 GMT		0 points
	The leagues go in a specific order. You guys don't need to keep scanning back and forth if you remember the first 4.

	chiefyratain:	Mar 29th, 2011 at 21:25 GMT		-1 points
	Definitely need more time, didn't get tripped up on any, still couldn't finish

	dmanninja:	Mar 31st, 2011 at 22:09 GMT		1 point
	i agree with volleydan, rennbj4, richmaharg, yankeefan416 (other than his choice of team), mahays, thequestioner, and chiefyratain

	Amaanie:	Apr 6th, 2011 at 21:27 GMT		2 points
	my typing skills made me lose this.

	Jeffreydo:	Apr 10th, 2011 at 18:15 GMT		-1 points
	wont accept my answear if it starts with a lower case

	Saints09:	Aug 10th, 2011 at 23:43 GMT		1 point
	I need to pay more attention to the 3rd column.

	The rankings don't really have much to do with the popularity of the teams. Look at the highest ones. They are mainly the teams at the top of the list. The lowest ones are mainly those at the bottom of the list. If you go in order, you might run out of time, like many of you have commented, therefore explaining the low percentages of the Brewers, Canucks, and such.

	i tried this. It is a good quiz. However, I could only type in 30 of the 40 answers. I know all of the answers, they are very easy, but, 2 minutes is not enough time. I tried to just say the answers against the timer and it took me 1:02 to do it. I don't think it's possible to think of the answers and type them in 2:00. That would mean doing each one in just under 3 seconds per answer. Again, I just don't see how this can be done!

	nyiballs:	May 24th, 2012 at 14:31 GMT		2 points
	Got em all with 2 seconds on the clock... That means I had time to think, and type, and skip a couple and go back. Perfect timing IMHO
