Supposedly, as SBC renames itself AT&T, so too will the SBC Center have it's named changed to the AT&T Center. Doesn't make a difference to me as long as the Spurs win the title this year.

I wondered how long that would last.

Change all the signs....


Thats the dumb part of naming an arena.

You change the sponsor you change alot of crap.

Which the sponsor, no doubt, pays for.

I doubt they are paying for changing the Street signs.

If they are, thats cool.

Dunno why they just cant leave it alone......

Has SBC approved the name change?

I don't think they have because the merger hasn't even been approved yet.

There was a time, long ago in a land far far away, when Stadiums were not named after thier biggest sponser.

Yankee Stadium
Shea Stadium
etc etc.

What merger? SBC owns AT&T already. According to a friend of mine who works for SBC, they want to change their name to AT&T because it's a better name to do business internationally. I think it's also a better brand name too.

It was also a time when companies didnt care about sports.


I dont begrudge teams for selling naming rights.


Its another, "If you owned the team, you would do the same thing, wich is correct"

Question:

Why don't arenas have the actual company logo on the floor? Too distracting?

or

why not "GO SPURS GO Garden"?

Oh yeah because it's fucking gay.

Get out of my city.


Also, anyone who laughed at this, please ingest a small wax-paper satchel filled with ground glass. :blah

If it came down to it, AT&T Arena would sound better.

AT&T Center just isn't hip. It's square. It's an L-7 weenie.

american telephone and telegraph, please who even uses telegraph anymore
SBC is the one aquiring AT&T, I would be surprised if SBC didnt keep their name
SBC aquired PAC Bell, and Ameritech and kept SBC so why would they change their name now?
