    Cue the Price is Right sound when someone loses.

    This reminds me of when the DFW area voted and had a big program to name the new baseball stadium back in the 90s.
    It was a huge deal, all sorts of things like Ryan Stadium, etc...

    Then to much fanfare. The said the new name IS !!!!
    "The Ballpark in Arlington"

    Also cue the Price is Right sound when someone loses
    All that time and money and they came up with that.

    I liked the Ballpark in Arlington. At least it wasn't American Airlines Park, or Lockheed Martin Field. Thought the original was kind of classy.

    It was for awhile.
    It was Ameritrade Ballpark in Arlington... Had a big bell in the outfield stands for a bit...

    Give it time once the economy recovers it will have (Companyname) ball park in Arlington soon.

    Jerry World will be the same in short order.
    Pepsi Cowboys Stadium is my guess...

    I guess no more relevant than Northwestern and Indiana being labeled "Leaders" or "Legends."

    Northwestern would be a leader because they aren't legends. Illinois, well, they are neither. Poor Illinois. They had to give up Chief Illinwink or whatever the hell his name was, and now this..........

    Sad day for the Big 10, 11, 12, whatever, double L, something or another.

    According to espn.com, Big 10 commish Jim Delany to rethink the division names "Legends and Leaders", due to an overwhelming disapproval by the fans. lol No duh.
