	Sacramento isnt being accepted. I missed getting 100% because of that. :(

	Sorry about that, it should be fixed now. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS ANYTHING ELSE WRONG WITH THIS QUIZ.

	mneh:	Mar 10th, 2011 at 04:29 GMT	4 points
	Should be "Chiefs," not "Cheifs."

	quizer500:	Mar 10th, 2011 at 04:56 GMT	2 points
	Fixed.

	surprised no st.petersburg for tampa bay rays

	bigjoeco:	Mar 10th, 2011 at 13:17 GMT	21 points
	Hey, that's great, but who are the Chefs?

	najello:	Mar 10th, 2011 at 16:05 GMT	1 point
	Kind of wondering about the Islanders. Does that count for the New York Metro area?

	phildm:	Mar 10th, 2011 at 17:34 GMT	-2 points
	Including MLS? And minor leagues and NBDL are professional leagues that employ professional players, so your title is off.

	@mulv Newark is part of the NYC metro area

	glong971:	Mar 11th, 2011 at 02:07 GMT	1 point
	ag, the Rays also have to include Tampa/Clearwater/St.Petersburg and I think they rank in the low teens metropolitan wise?

	152nd largest, since that's the easiest direction to go from.

	For those of you that are questioning that MLS should be on there, here is the source I got the sports teams from:http://www.sportmapworld.com/

	What's interesting & a little surprising, and what threw me off, are the relatively-low metro rankings of San Antonio (7th largest city population) and San José (10th), both bigger cities than Detroit (11th) or San Francisco (12th). The difference in ranks seems to be for different reasons: for San Antonio because it's relatively isolated from other populous counties, cities & towns; and for San José because it's crowded next to the San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont metro area.

	@RichGaluszka - It is METROPOLITAN area. I hate to burst your bubble, but you are lumped in with Niagara Falls. Nothing you can do about that except get in a barrel and go over the falls.

	quizer500:	Mar 14th, 2011 at 01:04 GMT	4 points
	@ucsig19:That is true city wise, but in metropolitan area wise, it is actually the biggest of the 3.

	hollabackitsobi:	Mar 14th, 2011 at 17:04 GMT	8 points
	@sc00: Haha, oh wow.

	KansasJayhawk:	Mar 16th, 2011 at 04:49 GMT	2 points
	Very interesting.

	Dralcoffin:	Oct 30th, 2011 at 05:19 GMT	1 point
	Thanks, quizer500, for using metro areas. I think they reflect city size much more accurately than city limit populations.

	RollTribeAC:	Oct 30th, 2011 at 16:58 GMT	1 point
	good quiz. got all but sacramento

	RollTribeAC:	Oct 30th, 2011 at 17:05 GMT	2 points
	and @dralcoffin, i agree because its not like only people from the city are fans of these teams. people throughout the whole metropolitan areas for these teams mostly root for these teams so they should be included too

	quizer500:	Oct 30th, 2011 at 18:13 GMT	1 point
	Just it updated to 2010 census. This change kicks out Sacramento and brings in Cincinnati.

	domotime2:	Oct 30th, 2011 at 23:54 GMT	-1 points
	its funny because i always thought San Antonio/Jacksonville were in the top 20 for largest cities.

	Dralcoffin:	Oct 31st, 2011 at 01:13 GMT	3 points
	@domotime2: They are for city limits, but they do not have many suburbs at all.

	Wes_Mantooth:	Oct 31st, 2011 at 15:50 GMT	-3 points
	I imagine this quiz has been done before.

	quizer500:	Oct 31st, 2011 at 16:05 GMT	1 point
	@Wes_Mantooth: Really? Give me a link to give one time.

	quizer500:	Oct 31st, 2011 at 16:07 GMT	1 point
	Also if anyone wants to share why they are rating this quiz below 4 globes I would be happy to know so I can fix it.

	dabarlaa:	Nov 5th, 2011 at 02:04 GMT	-1 points
	check your stats. San Jose and San Antonio are huge cities

	survivorfan2000:	Dec 3rd, 2011 at 12:19 GMT	1 point
	Jacksonville is a pretty large city. It is the biggest in Florida.

	MattAtkins:	May 17th, 2012 at 16:08 GMT	1 point
	Providence should be included, The Patriots/ Foxboro are closer to providence then boston.
