I wonder if the NFL has a rule that your name has to end in "s".

I usually tank on sports quizzes but somehow got 4/5 on this one. I missed Crimson Tide because I typed in Red Tide.

Curious as to why the % for the two "Sox" teams would be different. Would think anyone getting one would get the other.

They're only off by 2%. I imagine people who don't follow baseball can recall the Red Sox easily enough, as they are one of the signature teams, and get a ton of media coverage. The White Sox, despite a long history, have become an afterthought. They've been mediocre or terrible for a decade, and they are totally eclipsed by the Cubs in the Chicago market. I think that's enough to explain a 2% difference.

I was thinking the same thing: Dream, Sky, Sun, Fever, Liberty, Lynx, Mercury, Storm.... I guessed several of those in case there were colleges using those names.

Seems to me they should be included in this as they are pro sport. But whats the cutoff - the soccer team in Atlanta has reached critical mass, its popular. In Philly, the box lacrosse games were decently attended.

My stupid brain initially interpreted "not ending in S" as "not plural," so it took me forever to come up with things like Illini and Minutemen.

I wish Utah had more than one mammoth. As it is, I foresee penalty after penalty for having the wrong number of players on the ice.

Waiting for them to decide on their new team name before I update all the quizzes. But it would be very meta if they changed their name to simply "Football Team".

Originally there were two Montreal teams and Canadiens (with an e not a) were the team for the French Canadien Montreal fans.

I hope they go with the Football Team. It's simple. And it won't offend anyone (or anyone who would watch).

The people offended by the past name I doubt spend any time watching football. They have to spend the majority of their time being offended or it would never have become an issue. I'm sure they could find a way to be offended by the name Football Team, as well. Perhaps on behalf of all international soccer fans who don't watch? (since they're being offended on behalf of other people in this case, too, polls of indigenous Americans find that the majority either have no problem with the Redskins name or find it positive)

I got them both, but, feels wrong giving credit to both "Sox" teams just because they can't spell.

FWIW I really, really hope the Washington Football Team keeps their name as that. I actually think it's good branding, in a somewhat ironic way. But at the very least it can't be worse than the Browns name/logo.

Wow, was expecting to bomb, but only missed two. Definitely helped by the fact that so many are NHL teams.

You should at least add "US team names" in the title.

What do you call an individual player on one of these teams? A player on the Lakers is a Laker. What is a player on the Heat.

Based on a number of comments above, I'm inferring that this quiz used to have a bunch of college teams in it as well.
