it'd be great if the company's that get their names plastered all over them actually paid the lion's share for building/rennovating them. instead of politicians ripping off their constituents to get them built for their friends in sports franchises that are proven to add very little to the local economy.

I miss Tiger Stadium like crazy...AND, moreover, WHY did Ilitch spend all that money on Comerica Park (btw, NO sports arena/field should be named after a corporation) and the team sucks...? He should have invested in the team itself.
