Fanfiction Question - 12/14/03 07:17 PM
Does anyone know if any names of fictional sports teams were mentioned in Lois & Clark, and if so, what they were?
Re: Fanfiction Question - 12/14/03 07:28 PM
I don't know about FICTIONAL, but The Buffalo Bills were metioned in 'And the Answer Is...'. That's the team on the NFL that Dean Cain had a contract with, before he broke his knee. Hope that helps. They put it in the script as a private joke, I guess.

Didn't you used to play for the
Bills?

Til my knee blew out. Now I do
this. It's much more relaxing, and
_definitely_ less painful.

Lois mentions the "Met Net Cheerleading Squad" in a very early ep, so it's a good guess that the basketball team is the Metropolis Nets.
And I believe the football team is the Metropolis Tigers (from Super Mann).
I can't recall hearing mention of a baseball or hockey team.
And yes, Clark (like Dean) is a big fan of the Buffalo Bills. He mentions and is shown watching them in more than a few eps. And I think the baseball cap he's wearing in LOTF is a Bills cap, as well.

From the script of Super Mann:
BTW, one reason the team "Tigers" might be so popular in L&C fic is because Dean played football for Princeton University and they are the Princeton Tigers.

A SPORTSCASTER interviews a quarterback in a crowded,
excited locker room after a game. Players HOOT and HOLLER,
waving their fingers in the We're Number One sign. WE are
very TIGHT on the quarterback... and we SEE that it's
Steve. Supered on the screen is: Steve Law, Quarterback, (X)
Metropolis Tigers. There's a LSPN logo in the lower right
corner.
STEVE (X)
(exuberant)
All I can say is, look out 49'ers!
We're going to clean your socks!
Boisterous CHEERS from his teammates as they move away and
the Sportscaster turns to CAMERA, grinning.
SPORTSCASTER
Well, whether Steve Law means (X)
'socks' or 'clocks', the 49'ers had
better look out because the long
arm of the Law is going to the
Superbowl!

I don't know if this was actually in the ep itself, but from the script of Man of Steel Bars:
That's right before Lois grabs the mike away from the sleazeball reporter to appeal to Superman to come back and save Metropolis from nuclear meltdown.
Hope that helps.

Superman is taking a super hike and not soon enough as far as this reporter's concerned. Not only is he responsible for baking Metropolis, but rumor has it that his force field is the real reason the Metropolitans lost the pennant this year.

There was one mentioned in Bob and Carol and Lois and Clark, but I don't remember what it was, and I don't have time to look it up because of exams.
