 Just a quick thought here.  Have you thought about defining a SportsTeam entity type?  Right now sports teams are defined as organizations.  Which could be fine, except that you break out SportsLeague as its own entitytype rather than putting those as organizations.  

I was just wondering if there had been any thought put toward breaking out SportsTeams as an individual entityType as well?

Thanks,

Joshua

We haven't thought about it, for various reasons related to information management we decided to include SportsTeam names under Organizations.

Please note that there's a property called OrganizationType that indicates the type of an extracted Organization, so you can take the ones with type=Sports only if you want to focus just on Sports Teams.
