    I'd love to know the logic for them pissing away money on adds in soccer in Germany? Pissing money away when oils is <$30 a barrel!
    Of course they could be the green screens with custom messaging for the Canadian TV viewership. Must be that.

    has "Bacardi" always been by TFC logo on their website ... everyone has their shirt sponsor in that location on other MLS team pages except SJE which are sponsorless.

    No.

    Petro-Canada does business all over Europe in lubricants, not gasoline. That's why they advertise there.

    It was like that all season. They sponsor a lot of our content. We have a significantly wider range of advertisers than most of the league. I assume BMO has the rights to shirt and stadium (for now) and a few small things on the side. A bunch of sponsors, namely Budweiser and Bacardi, have their name's on a lot of our other content.

    All I'm saying is I wouldn't put a lot of stock in it.

    So, we are only 40 days from the season opener, and no word on a new sponsor yet? Last images I saw of the field still have "BMO Field" over gate 1.

    There's gotta be SOME news!? Anyone??

    I think it is just the shirt sponsor that is changing. The naming of the stadium I think they have one more year on the contract from what I read. It is possible we could start the season with a blank jersey like other teams have before. I am sure they would like it in place before the season but probably not that important in the grand scheme of things.

    ^ I'd be very surprised if the club couldn't find a shirt sponsor by the start of the season. My best guess is that it's gonna be an existing partner, but ultimately it could be anyone who offers up the right amount of cash.

    That'd work for me. I might actually buy my third-ever piece of merchandise - after a scarf and a hat. Not paying big cash to wear clothing that advertises a bank. Or a car maker, pizza franchise, booze merchant, etc. They can effing-well pay me to do that.

    Rudi reposted an interesting article on Twitter:
    http://www.marketwired.com/press-rel...mo-1285550.htm

    In it, it says that the deal is until the conclusion of 2016. Was that changed?

    That was a 2010 article that apparently had the wrong end date in it. I remember BMO signing on for 1 more year last year.

    MLS has minimum $ amount for shirt sponsors. I believe the floor is was lowered to 500k/yr a couple years ago (and MLS takes a chunk of that).

    still is $4million in lost revenue for the club, although i doubt BMO paid anything close to that last year for extending one more year.

    That's not remotely fair to say. In fact, it's pretty lame.

    I got to spend a fair bit of time working in the Carolinas and Virginia a few years back, with our work bringing us into contact with NASCAR events and race teams like Joe Gibbs Racing, Roush Racing and Hendrick Motorsports. We met some of the nicest, most welcoming people. It was like being in the Maritimes. There aren't too many hillbillies around Charlotte, Raleigh or Richmond.

    As for the race teams we dealt with, they were smart, competitive and amazingly accessible and well spoken around media. But don't let that get in the way of your overdeveloped sense of superiority.

    Well he isn't the first to say it and that doesn't make him right. It takes all kinds and while I couldn't give a toss about the sport I'd be interested in the difference between the marketing laws that let them do what other sports cannot.

    Oh and bigup for letting a girl race. That was a relatively recent development, was it not?

    Rumor has it that we have no jersey sponsor yet and the front runner has dropped out.

    First Female Driver in NASCAR was 1949. The same year as it's 'inception'. So ya, fairly recent I guess....

    Awesome first post. Apparently a "Danica Patrick" was first to come up in Google. But thanks for all that extra info. Maybe some other time.
