olivier in france Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 I've seen the Packers and Texans plan to have corporate logos on their practice jerseys... NO!!! Don't open that Pandora's box or you'll end up like us in Europe with teams looking like Nascar cars! Team Colors are not for sale!! (yet most of pro teams have sold their stadium names... )
BuffaloWings Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Stadium names are one thing...you don't always have to see it and/or have it thrown in your face each time you watch an NFL game. I should've known this would be the next step. But even so, what company these days is willing to "throw away" money like that?
olivier in france Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 But even so, what company these days is willing to "throw away" money like that? it depends of the price asked ... but for a team as popular as the Packers, i'm sure they'll find !!!
olivier in france Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 Cant wait for the gay porn site to advertise!!! It reminds me of a low level football team from Toulouse who had a sex shop as a sponsor... the ad was on the bottom of the pants! i still have the photo on my photo-blog! http://www.edenfrog.com/photoblog1/index.php?showimage=115
PTS Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Sorry to say it but it looks like the Bills will be the first team to do so.

(yet most of pro teams have sold their stadium names... ) Race car drivers...every square inch on their body is for sale. Somebody once commented that they probably have advertising tattooed on their di*ks.
RayFinkle Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Cant wait for the gay porn site to advertise!!! Interesting that that is the first thing you thought of....
Kipers Hair Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 I don't know - I see where Aon is paying Manchester United over $100MM a year to put their logo on the uniform....if it helps bring stability to small market teams - why not add to the revenue. One caveat - this should be owner revenue and not revenue eligible for revenue sharing. If it is sharing eligible - it will just further inflate player salaries which have gotten out of control anyway....

Don't know how it could help small market teams, especially if it's "owner revenue" as the biggest market teams 'd sell that ad space at a higher price than the small market teams... It'd make the financial gap between teams even larger than it is.
bowery4 Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 personally everytime I see that AIG logo on a soccer jersey these days (I live in Bangkok so I see quite a few), it pisses me off.
olivier in france Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 personally everytime I see that AIG logo on a soccer jersey these days (I live in Bangkok so I see quite a few), it pisses me off. Well as you live in Bangkok it's mainly bad copies of AIG logos that you see on bad copies of soccer jerseys! So is a fake logo of what is now a fake company, real or fake?
The Dean Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Practice jerseys? Who cares. I'd hope the Bills jump on that bandwagon to pick up a few bucks. You know the big money teams will. Game day jerseys is another matter, entirely.
olivier in france Posted June 4, 2009 Author Posted June 4, 2009 Game day jerseys is another matter, entirely. as i post earlier i just wish it'll not be the first step toward ads on the game jerseys...
ans4e64 Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Cant wait for the gay porn site to advertise!!! Ew. Why? Are you gay?
GOBILLS78 Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Sorry to say it but it looks like the Bills will be the first team to do so. Nice. Honestly, though, I don't have much of a problem with practice jerseys. Obviously game jerseys would incite a riot. My first choice: Chico's Bail Bonds
JLO Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Gotta admit, i think it would be cool to see the Labatt Blue logo on the Bills unis'
Kipers Hair Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Gotta admit, i think it would be cool to see the Labatt Blue logo on the Bills unis' Excellent point - The Labatt Logo would go well....
The Dean Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Excellent point - The Labatt Logo would go well.... Jet Blue, Labatt Blue, maybe Molson Stock (the original Blue) when they play in Canada. I really like Molson Stock Ale.
stuckincincy Posted June 4, 2009 Posted June 4, 2009 Jet Blue, Labatt Blue, maybe Molson Stock (the original Blue) when they play in Canada. I really like Molson Stock Ale. We need the return of sandwich boards. At least then, unlike todays' logo garb and the free advertising, people got paid for prancing around hawking a product or service.
