Is like they asked a 8 year old who watched transformers to name them plus drawing the logos. Especially in NBA and NFL.

Also the idea of a city “buying a team” from another state blows my mind… Imagine if that was a thing in Europe, Chelsea FC, in Newcastle or Bayern München in Hamburg. Barcelona FC In Madrid… That would cause a riot lol

That’s your opinion and you’re more than entitled to it. My opinion is that having a logo on your jersey is much cooler than having the name of an airline or some other megacorp on it.

Here nobody thinks on the corp. Owning the team. Is all about the city representation.

Again, that’s your opinion, mine is that’s the teams are walking advertisements as is every jersey that is bought by a fan.
