Say Nay, Kid

Meanwhile, in San Francisco, local government officials want to change the name of the ballpark from Pac Bell SBC Your Name Here! Park to Mays Field at Your Name Here! Park. To honor Willie Mays, the Say Hey Kid. Wink wink, nudge nudge.

SBC and the Giants organization are resistent to the idea. I can understand SBC's reluctance. The Giants will come around, though, once they realize that in ten years they can sell both names, making it Your Name Here! Field at Your Name Here! Park.

And in fifteen years, they'll be selling the players' names. "Listen, kid, to play in the National League, you've got to take the name given you. You'll be Yahoo! Google, or you'll be playing in the Grapefruit League for the rest of your life."

 
To say Noggle, one first must be able to say the "Nah."
