Also put cheddar for grilled cheese. Figured the word "best" elevated the answer above American, not that there's anything wrong with American. Gruyere is a good answer for grilled cheese specifically, but it didn't feel like a sheep answer. Besides, the last grilled cheese I ate had cheddar, and there is a grilled cheese restaurant here called Cheddar Jackson.
 
What did people put for the sports team questions? Ended up going with Patriots and Lions but don't feel great about it. Worried about a Yankees-Jets combination.
 
every week I am like 2 answers away from being at the top, this week the cellphone question is going to be one of those. I should have gone with the freakin rule of 5
 
Have you guys considered the cost of cheddar cheese slices when you're deciding what is "best ?"

I did this. In a business meeting, "we want to be the ______ of (our business)" would be completed with Yankees over Patriots or Lakers. Aside from the New York/New York constructive interference, the Jets had the more recent public faceplant (Rodgers injury). A lot of historically good/bad teams have been less so recently, which was what made that question hard.

I'm wrong all the time but an "elevated" grilled cheese should not be in the conversation here.
