Does it bother anyone else that the Arizona Cardinals stadium - site of this year's Super Bowl - is University of Phoenix Stadium? No, they don't share it with a college named University of Phoenix - the naming rights sponsor is University of Phoenix - that online university! That is dumb. I am opposed in general to naming rights - Candlestick should have stayed Candlestick, Comiskey Comiskey, etc. - but this is the worst. It is an amorphous distance learning institution and it makes it sound like the stadium belongs to a real school! It is like renaming the new Yankee Stadium Chicago Bears Stadium - after some Chicago zoo exhibit!
In other news, can you believe that Super Bowl? Or at least that 4th quarter? I wonder if this is karmic retribution for all of that Spygate jazz. Either way, I missed history being made in the way of a perfect season, but at least got to see a huge upset.
