What may be worse is that they kind of tried, but did a terrible job.

And how did they get Scott McGregor to pitch for the Orioles in the movie? :P

Strange to think that The Waterboy would be so much more authentic than the weirdly designed helmets in Any Given Sunday (seriously, what's up with that Dallas Knights helmets?).

How about the New York Emperors? My favorite from that movie is the California Crusaders.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

In Happy Gilmore, when he's at the hockey rink (I believe for tryouts in the first part of the movie), the Minnesota Moose logo is on the wall. He also had various hockey posters and pennants on his wall, and, of course, he worse a Bruins jersey for most f the movie:

I think they made the deliberate choice to establish a very un-NFL aesthetic. Stone's film took great pains to point out that their league wasn't the NFL, from the opening shot of the fictional league's logo to the dialogue establishing that the Miami Sharks play second fiddle to the Miami Dolphins in the city's eyes.

Contrast that to The Replacements, which was a much less antagonistic look at the sport, and which tried hard to look like their teams, or at least the Washingon Sentinels, could well exist in today's NFL. Even to the extent that the Sentinels' regular quarterback boasts of the Super Bowl rings he's won.
