Default Does anyone else mix up teams?

I always get Arizona Cardinals and Atlanta Falcons mixed up, I don't know exactly why, maybe because they're cities sound similar, and they are both birds? Same with Bears and Browns!

With hockey, mix up Ottawa Senators and Washington Capitals all the time, maybe because they're both capital cities.

And in NBA, it's Seattle Sonics and Washington Wizards, probably becasue seattle's in washington state. And I used to get Chicago and Boston mixed up all the time too.

and I forgot about MLB, for MLB it's always Milwaukee Brewers and Minnesota Twins! all the time! is this just me mixing up these teams?

I guess it's just me always considering them similar at some level.

You are kidding right?

Arizona is a state and Atlanta is a town.

finally i've learned to distinguish between the browns and the bears! and since seattle's gone from NBA, that's worked out too!

but now i mix up in NBA the grizzlies, bucks, and wolves! and golden state with charlotte!!

in NFL, texans with bills! and colts with cowboys!!

i seriously don't know how i'm the only one this happens to.
