It was even tough to make. Thanks for the comment, and for playing my game.

Wow. That's really hard. I had to sit with my face right next to the screen to get a perfect score. Nice game.
There are a couple answers that maybe have typos in them? One of the answers has a question mark in place of a slash - St. Louis/Atlanta/Cincinnatia
and
Philly/Balt-DC has two slashes in the answer.
Great job, T!

By way of explanation:
Some teams share more or less the same markets. These share blackout zones. I have indicated these situations with a dash:
Texas-Houston, Baltimore-Washington DC, Oakland-San Francisco.
Zones overlap with some areas being blacked out for 2 or more teams. I indicate these with slashes:
Colorado/Kansas City, Detroit/Milwaukee, Toronto/Boston.
Some will have both slashes and dashes:
Seattle/Oakland-San Francisco
Some areas have many blackout zones. Iowa, for example has 5. Because of this, I abbreviate names in many of these cases:
Tex-Hou, Phily, KC, St. Lou, Oak-San Fran, etc. etc.
There may still be some problems with the text fitting in the space provided. Let me know if you find any glitches, and I'll fix them, or at least try to.

I can imagine the time and effort it took in making that map, but you executed it very well. I appreciate your effort and am currently scouring more of your games for other gems. Keep up the great work!
