I guess with the bears season over (well, not officially, but you know what I mean), they must be looking for some other thing that they can slag off on.

That said, the creamsicles get their BBW arena. congrats texans, hope you choke on it.

nope. The deal with Pizza hut just expired....interesting to see that two of the teams with no jersey sponsor also don't have a stadium sponsor and also have low attendance numbers (Cbus and Dallas).


So hey, it could always be worse for us in Fireland.

but I'll let you know that a jersey AND jersey sponsor could be named as soon as a week from now--but I'm not sure on the club's timing.

Don't forget though, halftime aside, there isn't too much room for advertisers during the run of play, so that's why there are sponsorships as well as naming rights and leaderboards with adverts on them and all of that.

That's why many other sports look at us curiously when there's a sponsor on the jersey--they think it's b/c we don't have money, and we look at them as though they've lost an opportunity--and also that their sport stops every 10 seconds for another commercial break.
