- Delete. Highly trivial and fails WP:NLIST as there is no significant coverage of these teams as a group. Frank Anchor 17:38, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:LISTCRUFT and WP:NLIST. I did not need to search very far to understand that some team names are shared, but in no way is that notable. Nothing appeared on radar, and it just seems like a clash of copyright that is handled at the business level. Conyo14 (talk) 00:24, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

- Delete as failing NLIST Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 22:14, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete. Fails to meet WP:NLIST. This also violates WP:OR, WP:LISTCRUFT and WP:FANCRUFT. Flibirigit (talk) 10:43, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete - WP:OR and in any case, trivia. Rlendog (talk) 17:32, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete – It's fun trivia, but still trivia. Easily fails NLIST and FANCRUFT. The Kip 19:03, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
- Delete: Due to WP:OR and WP:LISTN not being met. Let'srun (talk) 20:29, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
