The KOF Sports Team (94, 98) were my fave team, they GOTTA bring em back in KOF2002 (supposed to be dream match 2).

Just like 90% of the people who post in this section, you have no clue on the Sports Team's unique style and sprites.
BTW, it's spelled Brian, not "Briand" as you put it, and he and Lucky are damn good characters. I've come to appreciate their look and fighting styles, if you actually played with them instead of constantly bash them, you'd see they're pretty damn good fighters in their own right.
I never understood why most people never got into them in KOF'98, since this is the game with their most skilled forms. I've schooled people with both of them from time to time. I'm talking about hard core Iori, Ryo, Terry, Clark, Kim, and Kyo players, that I have decimated with the Sports Team.
Give them another try, you are overlooking a gigantic sleeper.
When will they bring back the SPORTS TEAM!!?? <hr></blockquote>
Never! Who knows maybe in the not to distant future. Eh, who cares.

Very good point you bring up about SNK stereotypes. Why the fuck does Lucky have to attack with the damn Basketball and slam dunk opponents?
Check out Butt in MOTW also... jumbo sized lips, and an afro that requires a fucking stepladder to see over. <img src="graemlins/ohno.gif" border="0" alt="[Oh No]" />
Truly narrow-minded character designers. <img src="graemlins/annoyed.gif" border="0" alt="[Annoyed]" />

I played them in both KOF 94 and KOF 98 and still don't care for them.
