Philadelphia Flyers and New York Knicks are missing, and Chicago Cubs is not alliterative. Alliteration is based on the sounds themselves, not the letters representing them.

it looks like someone needs to look up the definition of alliteration. mr procrastinator is right. i'd like to see someone make this quiz that also passed the 4th grade.

Angels. Even though its the LA Angels of Anaheim, the first letter of the city (now) and the name is the same

Fair enough. And I agree that both Anaheim Angels and Seattle Supersonics should be bonus answers.

Yeah, where are the Pirates? And are the SJ Sharks really alliterative?

'S' and 'SH' are different consonant sounds. The Sharks are not alliterative

alliteration is based on sound not letters. sharks are not alliterative and neither are the cubs. leave the cubs out and keep the flyers and knicks and take out the sharks.

If it's based on sound, the Sharks need to be taken out, like the Cubs. And like the first commenter said, you should include bonuses like Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New York Yankees. I got the Angels as a bonus :D Just some suggestions.

+1 for alliteration on the second word of a city. Like New York Yankees, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and San Francisco 49ers
