The advertisements in the MLB uniforms are so out of hand now. Now they have advertisements on the damn helmets.

Looks like soccer uniforms. It looks so dumb

 

[Bulldog45]

I agree. Plus you’ve got the add on the back of the mound. Before long they’ll scrap the team names for sponsors like we used to have for t-ball.

 

[HotMop]

I like it!

I understand your concern, but I’ve got fond memories from my days on Delaware Tire Break & Muffler.

I was on Fred Vann Insurance and we were a helluva 7-9 team at the Corinth YMCA.

 

[dorndawg]

J&H Auto Parts. We sucked real bad, which I did virtually nothing to improve.

 

[Hugh's Burner Phone]

Jennings Electric. Won one game in two years.

We won the championship one year when we were Pizza Hut. They wouldn’t even pay for t-shirt jerseys. They gave us a basic Pizza Hut t-shirt with no numbers, but we kicked tail that year. Play with the proverbial chip on our shoulder.

I played for The Daily Star (local newspaper), Norwood Smith Real Estate, and Holiday Inn.

Don's Sports World went 24-0 over two seasons. Totally dominant team out of McNeil, MS.

Don't some SEC stadiums have a couple of subtle ads, or what could be ads, on the field? Not sure if State does - didn't notice.

Hey don't hate on my Piggly Wiggly Dizzy Dean jerseys. I was damn proud of that as an 9 year old.

I mean... Kentucky is literally "Kroger Field". Tennessee has Pilot Truck Stop logos on the field.

Those are two off the top of my head.

ETA: Arkansas has a Tyson Foods logo too. We'll all have it eventually.

Who we gonna get? No big companies headquartered in MS. Maybe there are some out of state who are owned by MSU alumni.

All our homegrown companies sell out and/or move to big metros. Viking, McRae's, Backyard Burger, Stein Mart, now Sanderson Farms.

CSpire is about all we got. Drake? Guess you got Southern Tire Mart now too. Newk's I suppose.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

My best teams were Time Transportation and Blackbeard Photography. Both jerseys were maroon with white collar and sleeve trim. Coincidence? I think not. Did these companies pick the colors or my father, the coach? I honestly don't know. I should ask him.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Viking, McRae's, Backyard Burger, Stein Mart,

I had no idea these 4 were originally MS companies. Learn something new every day.

More ads at a smaller price per ad, “the punt is downed at the Strangebrew Coffee House 10 yard line”.

Yes, that's what I meant rather than the name of the field.

 

[Dawgg]

Ok, Kentucky has both. Not only is the field Kroger Field, it has a big Kroger logo on the actual playing surface.

My team sucked so bad the sponsor had us put his competitor's name on our uniforms

 

[Maroon Eagle]

Yep.

We thought we were joking about Mize State…

 

[Chesusdog]

That's nothing compared to what they are doing to the NHL next year.

 

[HumpDawgy]

It's one thing to put the advertising all over the venues, but they need to stay off of the uniforms. Those should be sacred. It's not like the MLB doesn't have enough revenue to buy jerseys and caps.
