It's become evident that my last question was wayyyyyy too vague.
Therefore, ignore all previous guesses and let's go again. I'll give you #9 and #10 at once. You get 3 guesses for each.
Question 9/10: An *Asian* city, not in the middle east, with a peculiar history. The answer is one that NO ONE guessed already. So look back and eliminate ALL of those cities.
Finally,
Question 10/10: A Canadian city. Since there are no Canadian Football League teams in my area (well, I'm in the States but still, not really even close), I root for the team from THIS city. (www.cfl.ca has a list of the cities).
