Toronto Blue Jays play in the American League East, and could be included. Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Blackhawks definitely qualify. (How far down the ranks of professional do you want to go? This link is described as Major Leagues - there are an awful lot of Minor League teams to consider if you want the list to be really comprehensive.) http://www.vaughns-1-pagers.com/sports/sports-franchises.htm May 12 10, 3:09 PM

If you want to get really techincal, they are not named after colors but other things that have color representations. Cincinatti Reds used to be the Red Stockings. St. Loius Blues are named after a genre of music. Cleveland Browns are named after Paul Brown, their first VP, GM, and head coach. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cincinnati_Reds http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Louis_Blues_(ice_hockey) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Browns May 13 10, 6:22 AM
