All of them (except Lake Michigan, surrounded by American territory) are in the border area, so Canada and the United States share their domination and exploitation.
This set of Lakes pours its waters into the Atlantic Ocean through the St. Lawrence River.

SPORTS IN THE UNITED STATES Sports are an important part of the culture of the United States. The four most popular team sports all developed in North America:
American football
Basketball
Baseball
Ice hockey.
Olympic Games The United States has sent athletes to every celebration of the modern Olympic Games, except the 1980 Summer Olympics, which it boycotted. The United States Olympic Committee (USOC) is the National Olympic Committee for the United States.
The United States has won more gold and overall medals than any other country in the Summer Games and overall. The US also has the second-most overall medals at the Winter games, trailing only Norway. Earlier United States mainly conceded to Soviet Union at summer Games and to Soviet Union, Norway, East Germany at winter Games only and now strongly fights with China only at summer Games. The United States is the only country to have won at least one gold medal at every Winter Olympics, and has won the total medal count at Lake Placid in the 1932 Winter Olympics and at Vancouver in the 2010 Winter Olympics. During the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics, the United States set a record for most total medals of any country at a single Winter Olympics.
American football American football, known within the country simply as football, has the most participants of any sport at both high school and college levels.
Super Bowl Sunday is the biggest annual sporting event held in the United States. The Super Bowl itself is always among the highest-rated programs annually in the Nielsen ratings. Some notable players include Steve Young, Jerry Rice, Larry Csonka, Roger Staubach, Walter Payton, Brett Favre, Dick Butkus, Jack Youngblood, Joe Greene, Alan Page, Troy Aikman, Joe Montana, Otto Graham, Emmitt Smith, John Elway, Bart Starr, Fran Tarkenton, Kurt Warner, Lawrence Taylor and Johnny Unitas. Some notable current NFL players include Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Ray Lewis, Tom Brady, Brian Urlacher, Adrian Peterson, Aaron Rodgers, Tony Romo, Philip Rivers, Eli Manning, Jared Allen, Nick Mangold, Wes Welker, Victor Cruz and Andre Johnson.
Basketball Basketball was invented in 1891 by Canadian-born physical education teacher James Naismith in Springfield, Massachusetts. Of those Americans citing their favorite sport, basketball is ranked second (counting amateur levels) behind football. However, in regards to professional sports, basketball, or the NBA, is ranked third. The National Basketball Association, more popularly known as the NBA, is the world's premier men's professional basketball league and one of the major professional sports leagues of North America. It contains 30 teams (29 teams in the U.S. and 1 in Canada) that play an 82-game season from October to June. After the regular season, eight teams from each conference compete in the playoffs for the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy. The American Basketball Association, active from 1967 until 1976, when it merged with the NBA, was the last major competitor of the NBA.
Ice Hockey Ice hockey is another popular sport in the United States. Originating from North America, the sport is commonly referred to simply as "hockey." In the U.S. the game is most popular in regions of the country with a cold winter climate, namely New England, the northern half of the Mid-Atlantic and the Midwest, including the states of Alaska, Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, North Dakota, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine. However, since the 1990s hockey has become increasingly popular in the Sun Belt due in large part to the expansion of the National Hockey League to cities like Anaheim, California; Tampa, Florida; Dallas, Texas; Raleigh, North Carolina; Nashville, Tennessee; and Phoenix, Arizona. Although hockey does not enjoy the same popularity as football, baseball and basketball in the U.S., one of the nation's greatest ever sporting moments came during the 1980 Winter Olympics when the U.S. hockey team beat the Soviet Union 4–3 in the first game of the medal round before going on to beat Finland to claim the gold medal. The game has since been called the "Miracle on Ice". Over the course of the last few years, many Americans have become more familiar with the great excitement, speed, and physical play of hockey, and it is gaining on the NBA in terms of popularity and is slowly becoming a more familiar sport to the average American family.
