    Sacramento might be changing arena names from Power Balance Pavilion to the Sleep Train Matress Arena? The Sleep Center? The Snooze Pavilion?

    Sleep Mattress Arena? At best it sounds a taq risque. Cue a lot of bad jokes.

    Someday the naming rights to the RG will be sold. If the Trail Blazers could find a company thats a good match with the Portland community to fork over that much $$$, they'd be crazy not to take it.

    "We pounded the Kings in The Mattress"? A tad risque is an understatement... any mention makes it sound like a bareback video title.

    I actually kind of feel bad that we're the only arena that doesn't have a naming rights deal. It kind of makes me feel like I live in the only city in America that big companies don't care about. I want to be loved by large corporations. Is that so wrong?

    Well, corporations are people, my friend! Aren't they then capable of love?
