ajt Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 The NBA announced Friday that the board of governors has approved a three-year pilot program to allow teams to sell a corporate logo on their jerseys. Teams can now start pitching companies on buying a 2.5-by-2.5-inch space as the NBA becomes the first of the four major U.S. sports leagues to put ads on regular game-day jerseys. NBA teams had been wearing advertising logos on practice jerseys. The first year of the program will be for 2017-18, which also will be the first season that Nike makes the uniforms after taking over from Adidas. The Nike swoosh will appear on every jersey.http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/15210151/nba-jerseys-carry-advertisements-beginning-2017-18 I wonder if Rogaine will sponsor the Cavs http://i.imgur.com/hCS1YOdl.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milwaukee mike Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 What if its against what the player endorses off the court then too bad can't have one player on the same team wearing coke and another wearing pepsi... neither company would go for that that's the reason we don't have any of those old-school vending machines around any more with multiple choices. now coke only allows their products to be sold in a coke products-only machine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest boatboatboat Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Give 2 ads to the team. 1 to the player ( they keep the $) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
