Alphabet Sheep - All About Sports Teams!

Necro

The Alphabet Sheep game seems to be hugely popular so... why not keep this going

This time we're going for sports teams! GAA, Soccer, Rugby - if they play a team sport then they're eligible - hell even if they're not, they are in Sheep!!

The format for newcomers...

I will present to you a list of the letters of the alphabet and all you have to do is PM me back your list, unnumbered. DO NOT post your list on thread

The topic of this quiz is Sports Teams - PM me a list of 26 Sports Teams in alphabetical order.

Use the below as a template:

A

F
G
H
I
J
K
L
M
N

P
Q

Z


As always, there are no incorrect answers in Sheep.... but can you pick the most popular one? Let's find out!

Closing date at present will be Sunday, 1st September with reveal to take place some time the following week - most likely Monday, 2nd September.

Let's Get Sheepin!

Hopefully

dobman88

That was harder than I thought.

khalessi

I'm in since I'm on a roll

tusk

Might be worth adding to the OP to not include the letters at the start of the answers every extra minute wasted is a minute of superior giffage searching lost :pac:

khalessi

that was hard list in

Choc Chip

I'll put something together. Hitting mid-table has inspired me to try again.

Off-topic: I only just zoomed into the image properly and realised that it was sheep breeds. Where did it come from - they're crazy breeds. Why would you have a cotswold and not a charollais? Or a Tunis but not a texel? Madness.

Tauriel

Count me in:D

Necro

So just to clarify, we leave the letters in and the questions and add a small comment about why we picked each answer?

khalessi

Add a video of each team playing their best match:D

Oooo la-di-da

Do we need to be specific about the sport? For example, if there were a county would you have to mention a specific sport. ie Can I say 'Ballygobackwards' or do I have to say 'Ballygobackwards Hurling' or 'Ballygobackwards Football'?

I asked an A or B question and you answered C.

Necro

You can mention it if you like, but counties be counties imo

I'd be of the opinion that you go for the bigger team. So for M, for example, if I had to choose between Manchester United and Manchester United Women, obviously the Women would win by a mile.

Kolido

The less specific you are they better I would imagine.

khalessi

Include a video and at least one paragraph on why you picked that team and do it for each of the 26 teams :P

Zaph

Looking forward to X

Loughc

In please

daheff

In to win. Fed up of my constant midtable mediocrity.

I want to laugh with you, but after rereading my submission to the cars sheep I realise we're both laughing at me.

@Sully Re sport names and whatnot, it's Sheep. You don't have to answer with a sports team name at all. Say cabbage. As long as everyone does, you win. To avoid accidentally polling people on thread for consensus in a game about consensus and polluting the game, might be best to go look at the movies game - specifically Harry potter, lord of the rings, star wars etc. to see how people chose to answer. General answers are good unless everyone else is specific, and vice versa. But asking what everyone else is doing is essentially cheating in sheep since what everyone else is doing *is* the game. Trust me, I've played it twice, I knows my stuff.
