Sure... listen to it now... the voice of NFL Films:

NOPE! not feeling it.

"Everbank Field, Quest Field, Lincoln Financial Field, Reliant Energy." Are you serious?

Anybody else see some incredible corporate lameness happening? What the hell has happened to the world? If they're that hard up for money, in a game that generates a surplus of 9 billion bucks, they're doing something wrong, and they're certainly not thinking about the future.

Do they not understand that the reason people spend money on football, is because they care about it. The reason they care about it, is because it was, for decades a cultural institution. That culture dies a little more every time they name something after University of Phoenix.

Bronko Nagurski would never plow thru a line in anything called, "Quallcom." Stadiums should be named after dead people, war veterans, and candlesticks. Or at least be a college field, like Penn, or Tulane.

What the hell is wrong with the world now? Hats off to Soldier Field, Paul Brown, Lambeau, and Candlestick for not selling out, and retaining their football-real name. And of course, the one, the only-- Louisiana Superdome. Whoever's idea it was to name stadiums stupid corporate names, should be punched in the mouth by Ray Nitschke.
