  • The grab for more more more money just won't go away for these sports enterprises,  and in some situations, it is disgusting:

    The NHL  has now determined that it is going to sell  naming rights, not to arenas, but:      to Each Division

    https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/30656402/nhl-sells-naming-rights-four-new-divisions

    And you know Damned Well that when one of these Pro Leagues does something like this, then  the others will follow.

    ....but they won't do something like the NHL had done at one time:  name the division after  founding greats of the Sports.  NO.  We are not going to get the Paul Brown AFC North;  or the Halas Division; or the Thorpe Division;  or the Lamar Hunt Division.   NO. 

    Now we can look forward to the Delta Airlines  NFC South;   Or the AT&T NFC East;   Or maybe the Goodyear  AFC North.   Or, the Poulan Weedeater  AFC South.   The Taxslayer AFC West.   Bullshit like that.

    LOL, nah- it will be more like the college Bowl games. The AFC North presented by Progressive Insurance.  😉
