Alaska Airlines eh?

I guess the deal with Ashley Madison fell through last minute.

 

[Meek]

But that's always going to be the house that Sark built to real fans.

If you're going to go down the path of naming rights ... that's a great deal for the University.

I absolutely fucking hate the fact that we have a brand logo plastered on the basketball court and will probably have one on the football field as well. Yeah, it's a ton of fucking money but at what point is traditions and all the bullshit worth more than $4.1 mil a year? Do we really need that money? We have a multi-billion dollar endowment. Not sure why I care so much but I do.

 

[Doogles]

Just wait until all sports jerseys are plastered with logos like the WNBA and Euro sports. Are uniforms are so ugly as is it wouldn't even bother me much.

Yes.

I'd rather have $104.4 million than $100.3 million (AD revenue in 2014).

 

[HuskyJW]

It's the largest in college athletics.

Nuff said on that.

[uw2010]

I see no issues with having more money...

 

[SluggoRouteDawg]

Will they change it from The Zone to The Tarmac?

 

[CokeGreaterThanPepsi]

Great deal for UW. And with rising costs of college athletics it is a big deal.

 

[whlinder]

I hope as part of the agreement Alaska had to get rid of this shit

(Yes, there is a UW one too)

 

[claycha]

Can TSA possibly fuck up the game day experience any worse than "The zone"!?

It'll be special having body scans on your way to the zone mid Q2 and fuck it, why go back

 

[RaceBannon]

Did you hear that Alaska Airlines was hacked?

 

[BallSacked]

A lot of teams have been selling 3rd party naming rights to media companies. Securitizes that revenue.

Ucla just did a deal with IMG for $15M/yr. I'm sure UW will follow suit, if they haven't already.

Send this gif to Poolboy. I hear he's interested in fashion shows.

Let's go Bervers!

 

[TierbsHsotBoobs]

Should be named Phil Knight Field at Husky Stadium.

But how are white people ginger-bearded repugnant pieces of shit?
