Yet another reason to hate the Leafs

 

The new chief executive of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment said he supports placing advertising patches on NHL jerseys, despite the blowback the Original Six team might receive from hockey traditionalists.

They're testing it out at the World Cup.  It's going to happen in the NHL, period.  Just get used to the idea.

What a shock that the guy who works for a large corporation is ok with advertising on jerseys. I agree with Eleven that it's basically inevitable. I'm just glad I already own all the Sabres jerseys I ever plan on buying so I won't ever have the need to pay money to buy a jersey with adds on it for Coca-Cola, Verizon, or whatever companies pay for ads on jerseys. I've got a throwback blue, throwback white, black goathead, and a white goathead. No ads, no slugs, no gray armpits, no capes, or any of that nonsense.

What are you going to do when your kid wants one?

 

(EDIT:  Please don't get me wrong.  I am very much against ads on sweaters.  I was very much against ads on the ice.  I was sort of against ads on the boards.  We're all so used to it now, and I think we will be with the sweaters as well.)

Put him/her up for adoption.

I for one, plan to only buy my jerseys from places other than official team stores. Those places should offer the jerseys without any ads.

Tell him what I always tell him. Save your money and buy it yourself. It's amazing how much more children appreciate things that they have to pay for.

Ok, what are you going to do when your kid tells you it's what he/she wants for the birthday?

Oh, I'm completely against it too. I just agree that it's inevitable. As for buying future jerseys after the switch I'll either go with ebay ones that don't have them or some other online retailer that doesn't have them or not buying them at all. All we can really do is vote with our wallets and I for one won't support this atrocity.

Disappoint him horribly lol. Honestly, you should see some of the that the kids wear to school now. A jersey with adds on it wouldn't even crack the top 3 of awful things that my son and his friends wear. But I won't be buying one for myself.
