CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2005 I care not. They own the team, they own the park, they can do whatever the hell they want. (ESPECIALLY since I don't pay for their shitty cable anymore.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
treble 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2005 Fucking stupid. No one's (except the talking heads on TV) is going to call it 'Rogers Centre'. Rogers SkyDome, I could see, but this is retarded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2005 Yes, now the Jays can finish third every season. Seriously, is there a worse division to play in in all of sports than the AL East? All jokes aside, I'm interested to see what Ricciardi can come up with for next season...that is, if they don't go after Magglio Ordonez right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

treble 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2005 Oh, and while the name is still horrible, some of the changes sound pretty good. The FieldTurf is the obvious one, but the videoboards on the outfield walls sound really cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

starvenger 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2005 You idiots, Rogers, you don't sell the naming rights to yourself! Geez. I would've laughed if they sold the rights to Corus or Bell Globemedia. But I'm guessing that keeping the naming rights "in house" allows Rogers to maximize the price. Or minimize it, depending on the "creative accounting" going on. And I agree with treble - Rogers Centre sounds stupid. Don't forget the Argos, too AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSS!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
