More about MetLife sponsoring Giants/Jets building
I finally was able to (slightly) flesh out my earlier scooplet regarding MetLife being in line to be the first "corner" sponsor of the new Jets/Giants stadium.
The deal is not signed officially, but barring an unexpected glitch, MetLife will be the first major sponsor on board.
As for me attempting to put an exact figure of $6 million on the deal . . . It's impossible at this stage for me to stand by a number that precise. These sponsorships arrangements are very complex.
The big question is how the current economic climate will affect the process, and that, too, largely is an unknown and continues to evolve.
One thing that now seems almost beyond question: It would be a shock if the teams did not sell personal seat licenses.
The Giants and Jets have two more years to slap a name on the place, and someone eventually will come forward with the dough.
How about the WatchDog House?

Watchdog House is good....
But......
I'm thinking Philip Morris out to kick in and purchase.....
"The Coffin Corner"
ARGGH....where is that "edit last comment" icon?
Should read
"Phillip Morris ought to kick in and purchase....
"The Coughin' Corner"
Heidi Fleiss could chip in 6 mill and call it "Just Working My Corner" (and get her money back in 1/2 a season).
The Jet's could buy one corner and call it "Loser's Corner"
A-Rod certainly has enough money to buy one and call it
"The Hot Corner".
If I had the money I would buy one and call it "Can I Get Any Cornier"
The Met's and what's left of WOR could buy one and build a shrine and call it "Kiner's......" .......okay I'll STOP!!
Maybe I'll buy a corner and name it "Hockey sucks"
I'd like to buy one and name it "New Jersey Sucks"
Why don't these guys sponsor some open wheel drivers (like Paul Tracy?) so we can see some good fights on TV?
Oh, my goodness, Best. Who cares who the hell sponsors the corners of the new Giants/Jets stadium?
Find out how much the PSL's are gonna cost, for goodness sake.
If they sell PSL's then the waiting list will shrink significantly.
