Vancouver Canucks Go Homeless. For A Few Hours. Before Rogers Arena Saves Them And Bores Us.
Update: Via a Tweet from the White Towel: "Rogers Arena deal is for 10 years. Expect lots of wireless fun at hockey games. Bring your iPad."
Update: Rogers Arena. Is that any worse than Telus Arena would have been? Or GM Place was? Pamela Anderson Coliseum FTW.
Update: The Globe says the winner is Rogers Communication, though the official arena name is coming shortly. Meh.
*************
Well this is fun. Also welcome news to long suffering fans who had to call their home a garage or - as Moe from the Simpsons says - the car hole (or car hold if Moe could enunciate a bit better!).
GM Place is no more. Opting to focus more on "in-arena" promotions, the humbled auto giant will relinquish corporate naming rights of the arena and a new sponsor will be named at a 2:00 PM news conference. The same conference will also likely mention several promotions (get ready to here Markus Naslund's name again) for the upcoming 40th anniversary season.
Back to where the Canucks call home. For the next five hours or so it's just a place. Care to suggest what the new corporate sponsor should be? I already saw the Pamela Anderson Coliseum being tweeted...that's a step in the right direction.

Well that’s more of a nickname suggestion… and I’m not sure if the literal meaning of “grindhouse” really fits, though the double entendre aspect of it does (assuming we have a hard working squad).

Now, his stupid thing is trying to get Bruce “The Ego” Allen to run for mayor. In a related story, both Brian Adams and Mike Reno ( the only one I would vote for of the three. I met him a few times. He’s pretty cool )…will run for council under their own “Millionaires” banner.

It is, it is kind of ripping off of that- if you want to win the northwest, you gotta win in the toughest part.
Yes, Rogers Pass is one of the toughest and last stretch of Canadian highway and th Canadian railway to build back then, because of the mountains between revelstoke and golden. But it’ll be cool to know our home arena is a tough place to play already, even before you start playing.

Even though I had called the number several times they said they couldn’t retrieve it for me, even from my bill, and I had to wait to get my phone back. Like wtf is that?

You gotta work the system a little on these bastards. Like when you pretend you are going to cancel your Visa and they lower the interest rate to like 7 percent to keep you. There are ways to get deals you just have to play the angles.

I read somewhere that Canadians pay way more for cell/plans monthly than the rest of the world. Can someone confirm this? This is why Rogers has the cash to sponsor our beloved Canucks Arena I suppose…
mobile phone plans in the US are a joke (not sure about Canada). My phone in China costs me about $35 a month for full on international access. In Hong Kong, I can go to a vending machine and buy a sim card and put it into any phone I want to…because you can buy phones anywhere. In the US, its all under contract and restricted and bloody expensive.
Yeah
compared with other countries it is ridiculous here in Canada. Ive heard in Europe its even worse, even for internet in your home its quite expensive.

Don’t think ours is worse than the US. I’ve seen equivalent plans that cost 50% more in the US. When you realize how cheap plans are in Asia… (like HK… where you can get 750 minutes for $12 CDN…. yes.. that’s 750 minute, not 75), I hate the telecommunication businesses here. Their phones aren’t great too…. Rogers has been a bit better, but I just buy my phones, unlock them, and plug in a sim card.
I still havent’ seen my S8300 phone for sale in Canada’s retailers yet.
You figure, in order to hold the GM Place name, they would have had to change it to the US Dept of Treasury Rink.
I’m not a fan of corporate naming of arenas…the best arenas are the ones which have no corporate names and we all know exactly where they are. Madison Square Garden…The Rose Bowl…etc.
What about Wrigley Field?
Iconic stadium with a corporate name. If it’s Rogers Arena long enough people will forget it’s a corporate name.

I was pretty pissed
when I heard that Nat Bailey had been changed. It’s the world we live in I guess but a Stadium that has been called Nat Bailey Stadium for 30 plus years should have been left alone.

So Sad
The day corporations started naming stadiums, the world lost a little colour.
They did leave the Stadium's name...
…That’s why the awkward handle. Scotiabank didn’t want the PR hell that would come with changing it, so they switched it to the field, leaving the stadium with the original name.
Which seems a lame cop out
to me. But at least they left the Nat part. He did so much for baseball in that area it would be treasonous to ever take his name of that stadium entirely.

Agreed
but it’s still technically a stadium named after a company name. Probably the first ever. Aquilani Arena?
Or how about Rogers Arena at Aquilani Place?

Jealous much? Liverpool’s the greatest club on the planet.
Going to church makes you a Christian just as much as standing in a garage makes you a car.
Pul-leease.
Liverpool is not even in the CL this year.
They were OK in their past…but the “best club in the world”?
There is only one team in England that can live up to that.
Its Manchester United.
But hey, Liverpool has that great song right? You’ll never walk alone…something like that?
A song they stole from Scotland
Let’s be honest there are a handful of big clubs in Europe.
Chelsea as much as I hate to admit it, Arsenal, Barca, Real, AC, Inter, Bayern and United are the tops. Liverpool aren’t even close to that group anymore. Look at the manager they brought in. A guy who can get a mediocre group to the relative safety of mid table and maybe make a run in a cup. That’s what Loserpool has to look forward too.
What would I have to be jealous of? We’ve won vastly more trophies in the last 20 years than Liverpool and it looks like we will continue winning for the foreseeable future while Liverpool languishes.

I have a friend who supports Liverpool and I witnessed much ranting and complaining over this last season. However my friends who support Blackpool had much to cheer about with the promotion to the top flight. Watch out for the team in orange!
The Tangerines are on the up
