It&#x27;s commonplace all over the world, Japanese baseball teams have corporate names, NASCAR is a boring 4hr commercial, F-1 drivers are walking billboards, Soccer uniforms, Euro/Swiss league hockey....list goes on. North American team sports are behind the curve. Not saying I approve but it&#x27;s coming for sure.Hawk....Clippers/SuperCuts good one. Toyota good one as well.

biggest jersey sponsorship deal in the world is FC Barcelona,a 5 year deal worth $235 million with Qatar Foundation

Up until a few years ago Barcelona were probably the only major soccer team in Europe who didn't have a shirt sponsor and swore they'd never tarnish their famous blue and red stripes with a corporate logo.But financial difficulties forced them to change their minds

Only a matter of time before you see US sports teams with logos on their jerseys

Don&#x27;t really see a problem with this.  If a company wants to pay enough money so be it.  As long as advertisments on the actual court aren&#x27;t allowed I&#x27;m fine with it.

Should have been done years ago. The advertisement possibilities are endless.

Gunners · Answer

The reason it&#x27;s done in soccer is because there are no commercials during the game.  If they limit some of the annoying breaks (especially in football) then I&#x27;m all for it.  But more likely they will just add this to the already terrible amount of advertisement.  &#xD;&#xA;Commercial.  Kickoff.  Commercial.  Fumble on the 20.  Commercial.  3 and out, field goal.  commercial.  kickoff.  commercial.&#xD;&#xA;That fucking happens.  55 seconds of game time and 5 commercials.
