    I think it would be a great move for MODA Health. They could say, "Our insurance is so good, we even cover the Blazers and they're injured all the time!"

    Sorry, I'm not going to call it Moda Health Garden. I refuse, anyone want to join me in this rebellion?

    I can honestly tell you this seems AWFUL fishy, and I'm willing to bet it's complete bunk, as Ropp is the only source 'reporting' on this acquisition.

    If you don't need the money then why?

    I will never call it anything but the Rose Garden....

    Utah fans do? I mean they prefer a previous corp sponsor (Delta Airlines) over the current one (remind me?)

    I think Guns and Roses should sponsor.

    Either the Axl Rose Garden or Guns and Rose Garden work for me.

    I think we should trade for Derek Rose and keep it the Rose Garden

    In fact, Lillard's Garden has a nice ring to it . . .

    Yes, only post as I came on here after trying to find more info about this rumor.

    As for the guy who hates the new name and rebranding, there was a purpose and multiple reasons behind it. That's way off topic for most people here but... Just sayin'

    It's stupid for people to bitch and complain about not wanting a corporate sponsor for the Rose Garden. 4.2 million per year,,,,(if that number is even close) is a lot of money, even for Paul Allen

    I hate MODA Health as a sponsor though, so hopefully that is not the case

    Funny how guys like Dwight James and the Blazers were emphasizing weeks ago nothing was agreed to.

    The above new poster MrKupka claimed to work for MODA and said he doubted the reports as nothing was being talked about internally but now all his posts are edited. He was probably not well informed or a troll or something.

    Most of the locals do still call it "the Delta."
