NBA to follow NFL's lead, put ads on practice jerseys

Ugh, WNBAish? Better if they put it instead on the homecourt floor or in the digital signages. Ugh, we're playing for cities, not for sponsors.

That's exactly how I feel - I always thought of jerseys/uniforms as a kind of "battle colors." You wouldn't expect an army to go into the field of battle with "Samsung Mobile" across their chests - likewise, a team shouldn't be expected to either.

Put the ads anywhere else - I know that we're going to be looking at them anyway - but it just seems like the jersey should be kept free and clear.

Dude, really? THAT'S the comparison you want to make?

More importantly, it appears he's never heard of PMCs or mercenaries. :blink:

You manage to balance agitation with just enough salient points to keep things interesting. Kind of a low-rent DG_Now.
