http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/15...sement-stubhubThe Philadelphia 76ers have become the first team in the four major U.S. sports to sell an ad on a jersey.
The 76ers announced Monday morning that ticket company StubHub will have its logo on the team's jerseys beginning in the 2017-18 season, when the NBA's three-year pilot program will start.
Sources with knowledge of the deal say the team has sold all three seasons at $5 million a year, with the option to extend the contract with StubHub should the league continue to allow the 2½-by-2½-inch logo patch to be on the jerseys in the future.
...........
NBA teams will keep half of the money generated by selling sponsorships on jerseys, and that half will be further split in two, with one portion going to the individual team that does the deal and the other going to a revenue-sharing pool. The half that does not go to the teams will be split with the players and will contribute to a rising salary cap.
because I like jerseys without ads... that's why
You can still buy these jerseys without the sponsor patch...
but then again I will be obliged to look at those ugly ads during the games and it hurts my eyes...
If you watch almost any European sport you've been seeing ads forever.
Poorball's not a real sport
Psst! Dumbass! We just had the 2015-2016 seasonUgh. Stupid move...
