The Oakland Raiders and A’s will have a new home come Friday–or should I say, a new name for their home. The Oakland Coliseum will be renamed the Overstock.com Coliseum. Yea, real exciting to say the least. To make matters worse, the online retailer has plans to change their name to o.co in the next few months in an effort to gain more worldwide customers.
The agreement with Overstock.com was made despite an uncertain future for the Coliseum, whose two professional sports franchise tenants — the A’s and Raiders — have indicated desires to leave what next year will become the only stadium in the country housing a professional baseball and football team.
It’s the nature of the beast these days to have corporate sponsorship for your stadium/arena. Most teams just can’t afford to turn down 1.2 million dollars a year–that is unless your name is Jerry Jones. Then you can build billion dollar stadiums and not give a damn about screwing over ticket-paying customers for the Super Bowl.
