The Yankees sell more merchandise than any other baseball team, and its not a slight edge. I haven't seen the numbers in a while, but something like more than 20% of all MLB merchandise sold is Yankee merchandise. I'm not a Yankees fan, but they are clearly America's team.

Dallas gets the nod for football.

I don't know about the others, but I've got a hunch that Notre Dame is the most popular NCAA football team.
