Anyone ever notice....?

[Original_JB]

Twins, Timberwolves

United

Vikings

Wild

(I realize the Lynx don't fit the pattern)

The transition from Senators to Twins in 1961 allowed future teams to take a first letter that was already in use. It’s also the rule that teams that actually win championships are permitted to spell their name in reverse, meaning that the Lynx, as Xnyl, can continue the string.

No, at least i did not notice it...

 

Lakers are long gone and have been replaced.

 

North Stars also, if more recently.

Some things go unnoticed for far too long.
