    Doesn't mean we can't share the name. Miami and Dallas both have arenas named for American Airlines.

    I don't think Phil wants anything to do with the Blazers. Too bad, but it's his choice and Phil has certainly been very good to Oregon sports and Oregon in general.

    More specific, the company name is Leatherman Tools. Think of the creative possibilities for promotions, a new mascot, new signs/slogans, etc.

    I nominate SlyPokerDog to call up the new president and tell him to sign a deal with Columbia.

    Isn't Fred Meyer owned by Kroger? Kroger is a pretty big national brand/store.

    Teamsters arena has a nice ring to it. Although game night entry might be a problem when non union fans have to go through the back door to the arena
