Yeah the only one I'd forgive him on is Washington because they changed 
team names and logos in recent years, I believe as late as last season 
I heard some announcers still referring to them as the Redskins (who 
quickly corrected themselves).

He did seem to get Kansas City right away but that was only because 
there's a big "KC" in their logo.

I guess the takeaway is Cooper shouldn't run for office in Manhattan or 
The Hamptons or wherever he lives -- the old "a guy you'd like to drink 
a beer with" maxim some people apply to politicians doesn't apply to 
him.
