North American Pro Sports Teams By State or Province

Name the teams from the four major sports leagues (MLB, NBA, NHL and NFL) that play in each state and (for Canada) province.
Teams can be guessed by just the name of the team itself. The city is not needed. For instance, if there was a team named the Rockford Peaches, entering Peaches alone would work.
Alternate spellings may exist for some teams.
Teams are sorted first by province/state, which are further sorted alphabetically. Within their province/state, they are sorted again alphabetically, this time by the location name of the team.
Some teams may play in a different state/province than their team name implies, in this case, the team is categorized by the team name, not their home venue.

102/124. Another 2 minutes and I could have gotten them all. Tried to think of repeated team names to fill in quicker.

The Giants and Jets should be listed under New Jersey. Their names are a misnomer and they physically play seven miles west of New York City.

description says otherwise, and I think that would just confuse people... because by that standard the commanders should be in maryland

As Pokematan said, I covered this in the fourth caveat:

- Some teams may play in a different state/province than their team name implies, in this case, the team is categorized by the team name, not their home venue.

I would have it be a highlighted answer quiz. Otherwise, you're just naming the north american sports teams

That would certainly make it more of a challenge. Maybe I'll make a second, harder version that does just that. Thanks for the suggestion.

Really nice quiz, but 10 min seems a bit short to name 120+ teams. It doesn’t give a lot of time to think about it.

You're the second one to ask for a little more time, so it's now 12 minutes.
